Description

 [repeat] .../netbeans/ide/core.browser.webview/src/org/netbeans/core/browser/webview/ext/WebKitDebuggingTransport.java:68: error: cannot find symbol
 [repeat] this.debugger = browserImpl.getEngine().impl_getDebugger();
 [repeat] ^
 [repeat] symbol: method impl_getDebugger()
 [repeat] location: class WebEngine

 

There is suggested workaround but does not work for me:

https://github.com/mohamnag/javafx_webview_debugger/issues/6

 

Class webEngineClazz = browserImpl.getClass();
 Field debuggerField = webEngineClazz.getDeclaredField("debugger");
 debuggerField.setAccessible(true);
 this.debugger = (Debugger) debuggerField.get(browserImpl.getEngine());

Debugger field does not exist here anymore
