FireDBG Event Stream Protocol

The FireDBG Event Stream is serialized according to the SeaStreamer File Format, which by convention has the .ss extension. The Protocol defines the different streams and formats of the messages on top of the file format, and thus they have the .firedbg.ss extension. The file format is not tightly-coupled with the stream protocol, as it is possible to stream to/from a different backend, e.g. Redis.

There are currently 4 streams:

Stream Key Format Description
info Json DebuggerInfo: debugger version, debug target, arguments and exit code, etc
file Json SourceFile: relative path to the source file
breakpoint Json Breakpoint: breakpoints created and the source location
event Binary Event: function call, function return, etc
