Webstorm debugger opens wrong file of same name when hitting a breakpoint

[nunoguedelha]

Issue Description

If a breakpoint is set on a given file, the debugger will stop on any other file with same name (but different folder path) run before the expected file.

This happened when debugging with Webstorm a Javascript client app running on the browser.

It is a know issue: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-12265, actually duplicate of https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-24860.

As suggested in https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-24860, two workarounds are possible:

• Place "debugger" directly into the code (instead of activating a breakpoint in Webstorm),
• Add a (dummy) breakpoint condition.

We'll close this issue when they release a permanent fix.
