Devel::Backtrace 0.01

Devel::Backtrace is a Perl module for object-oriented backtrace. SYNOPSIS my $backtrace = Devel::Backtrace->new; print $backtrace; # use automatic stringification print $backtrace->point(0)->line; METHODS Devel::Backtrace->new([$start]) Constructs a new Devel::Backtrace which is filled with all the information caller($i) provides, where $i starts from $start. If no argument is given, $start defaults to 0. If $start is 1 (or higher), the backtrace wont contain the information that (and where) Devel::Backtrace::new() was called. $backtrace->point($i) Returns the ith tracepoint as a Devel::Backtrace::Point object (see its documentation for how to access every bit of information). Note that the following code snippet will print the information of caller($start+$i): print Devel::Backtrace->new($start)->point($i) $backtrace->points() Returns a list of all tracepoints. $backtrace->skipme([$package]) This method deletes all leading tracepoints that contain information about calls within $package. Afterwards the $backtrace will look as though it had been created with a higher value of $start. If the optional parameter $package is not given, it defaults to the calling package. The effect is similar to what the Carp module does. This module ships with an example "skipme.pl" that demonstrates how to use this method. $backtrace->to_string() Returns a string that contains one line for each tracepoint. It will contain the information from Devel::Backtrace::Points to_string() method. To get more information, use the to_long_string() method. Note that you dont have to call to_string() if you print a Devel::Backtrace object or otherwise treat it as a string, as the stringification operator is overloaded. $backtrace->to_long_string() Returns a very long string that contains several lines for each trace point. The result will contain every available bit of information. See "to_long_string" in Devel::Backtrace::Point for an example of what the result looks like..
