Information about the current event

Getting Started

Hello,

Looking for information about the current event.

I would like to see the information that is shown in the “Stack” area of the debugger like: ObjName1.ObjName2.KeyUp

“Me” will supply some of the information, but I’m not sure how to get the Event’s name. Is there a function for this? I would use it like: MyHappening(Me, EventInfo)

Thanks -KC

The CurrentMethodName constant would be the Event name if it’s inside an Event.

If you really want the entire stack, you can do this:

Public Function getStackString() As String
  var result() as String '// Setup our return variable
  #Pragma BreakOnExceptions Off '// Disable BOE
  try
    '// Create and raise an exception
    var e as new RuntimeException( "Show me a stack!" )
    Raise e
  catch e as RuntimeException
    '// Grab the exception's stack
    result = e.Stack
    '// Remove the first element, which is this function
    result.RemoveAt(0)
  end try
  #Pragma BreakOnExceptions Default '// Reset BOE
  
  '// Return the stack
  Return String.FromArray( result, EndOfLine )
End Function

Call as:

var stack as String = getStackString

CurrentMethodName was the immediate solution.
I don’t need the entire stack yet, but I’ll know how to get it now.
Thanks all.
