v8-debug@0.7.7 fails to build

[mhornbacher]

• Version: node 8.2.1 with npm 5.3.0
• Platform: Linux menachem-N550JK 4.10.0-28-generic docs: replace all instances of node.js with io.js because trademark. #32-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jun 30 05:32:18 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
• Subsystem: node-gyp

Here is a full log of the issue. sudo and nvm both have not been able to get around it.

Note that there are no issues on 8.1.4. Any Ideas on where to begin?

[addaleax]

Reported at node-inspector/v8-debug#43 as well (please always cross-link issues if you’re opening multiple ones).

Note that there are no issues on 8.1.4.

That sounds odd; the Debug::Call method the code is trying to call has been removed when Node 7 came out.

Also, it looks like this has been fixed in recent versions of v8-debug.

[Fishrock123]

Can you try clearing your global npm modules?

[mhornbacher]

How do I do that? also for some reason npm install was not running the errors but it does fail in 8.1.4, and the latest version of v8-debug or 1.0.1

[addaleax]

@PCGeekBrain Looks like v8-debug is also using APIs that have gone away with Node 8 (namely, v8::Debug::GetMirror), even at its latest version.

That that API is going away is not under our direct control; it’s something that’s happening upstream in V8 and that we basically just have to accept as a breaking change that comes with Node 8. Also, the entirety of V8’s Debug API is being deprecated and will be removed in Node 9 or Node 10 (again, outside of our control), so it’s probably a good idea to move away from v8-debug in general.

I’m closing this as it’s not an issue with Node itself, just a breaking change that happened and that we can’t really revisit, sorry. Keep node-inspector/v8-debug#43 open and try to find a solution there on the module’s issue tracker, but right now v8-debug just isn’t working with Node 8.
