VBCS Variable Inspector

Debug overlay for Oracle VBCS/OJET pages to inspect $variables/$page/$flow/$application and binding values.

VBCS Variable Inspector helps Oracle VBCS and OJET developers debug runtime behavior directly in the browser. Key features: - One-click overlay launch from the toolbar - Frame-aware inspection for iframe-based applications - Binding inspection for [[...]] and {{...}} expressions with resolved values - Namespace Explorer for $variables, $page, $flow, and $application - Manual Query for quick runtime path checks - State Manager workflows for export/import, dry-run, apply, backup, and restore Built for faster issue triage, safer runtime testing, and cleaner debugging handoff across teams. What’s New (Version 0.1.2) - Added a header progress indicator for long-running inspector actions - Added root-context capture for smarter selection behavior - Added State Manager support for roots export and merge import mode - Refined themes, row matching, and compact/minimal header presentation - Improved hover/rerender stability and expression/binding overlap detection - Tightened script injection gating and improved snapshot scan performance - Centralized override icon rendering with SVG builder and emoji fallback # Changelog All notable changes to the VBCS Variable Inspector Chrome extension are documented in this file. ## [0.1.2] - 2026-04-07 ### Added - Header-level operation progress indicator for long-running actions - Root-context capture for smarter selection behavior - State manager support for roots export and merge import mode ### Changed - Refined theme system and row matching for clearer inspection results - Polished compact header and minimal-theme readability - Centralized override action icon rendering with SVG builder and emoji fallback ### Fixed - Stabilized hover updates and rerender behavior to reduce UI jitter - Hardened expression probing and binding-overlap detection - Tightened script/library injection gating and improved snapshot scanning ## [0.1.1] - 2026-03-23 ### Added - Stronger onboarding flow behavior: - Intro no longer auto-opens the guide. - Guide opens only from explicit user actions (`Help` / `Open guide`). - Better selected-control visibility in page context: - Theme-aware dotted overlay with contextual fill/ring. - Improved contrast for inspected/clicked highlight overlays. - More reliable component navigation: - Generic parent/child traversal heuristics. - Preserves structural steps like `td -> tr` instead of skipping to broad containers. - Improved fine-selection option discovery: - Dropdown now builds around current inspected element (not only initial click). - Adds sibling and peer options (including table row column peers) for generic selection. ### Changed - Welcome/start behavior: - `Start` now loads a sample element and closes intro. - Guide remains closed until explicitly opened. - Header debug toggle UX: - Compact top button label changed to `Log`. - State shown via dot/color + tooltip/ARIA instead of long on/off button text. ### Fixed - Inspected highlight precision: - Fine selection stays on the exact selected node (except effectively invisible tiny nodes). - Overlay targeting: - Reduced over-aggressive parent promotion for inspected mode.
