frame() (thread)

Syntax

whichThread.frame(frameNumber)

Description

Multiuser Server server-side debugging function; returns a stack frame reference. Each nested handler call (a handler called from within another handler) produces a stack frame. Frames are numbered from 1 to n, with 1 being the current stack frame, 2 being the frame corresponding to the handler that called the current handler, and so on.

The frame() function is useful for creating references to variables and line numbers.

Example

To refer to the handler two levels above the current handler (the current handler is frame 1) use a frameNumber of 3.

frameRef = testThread.frame(3)
