Public Class StackFrame

[ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
public class StackFrame

Constructors

	Name	Description
	StackFrame()	Initializes a new instance of the StackFrame class.
	StackFrame(Boolean)	Security Critical. Initializes a new instance of the StackFrame class, and optionally captures source information.
	StackFrame(Int32)	Initializes a new instance of the StackFrame class that corresponds to a frame above the current stack frame.
	StackFrame(Int32, Boolean)	Security Critical. Initializes a new instance of the StackFrame class that corresponds to a frame above the current stack frame, and optionally captures source information.
	StackFrame(String, Int32)	Initializes a new instance of the StackFrame class that contains only the specified file name and line number.
	StackFrame(String, Int32, Int32)	Initializes a new instance of the StackFrame class that contains only the specified file name, line number, and column number.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetFileColumnNumber	Gets the column number in the file that contains the code that is executing. This information is typically extracted from the debugging symbols for the executable.
	GetFileLineNumber	Gets the line number in the file that contains the code that is executing. This information is typically extracted from the debugging symbols for the executable.
	GetFileName	Security Critical. Gets the file name that contains the code that is executing. This information is typically extracted from the debugging symbols for the executable.
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetILOffset	Gets the offset from the start of the Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) code for the method that is executing. This offset might be an approximation depending on whether the just-in-time (JIT) compiler is generating debugging code. The generation of this debugging information is controlled by the DebuggableAttribute attribute.
	GetMethod	Gets the method in which the frame is executing.
	GetNativeOffset	Gets the offset from the start of the native just-in-time (JIT) compiled code for the method that is being executed. The generation of this debugging information is controlled by the DebuggableAttribute class.
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Builds a readable representation of the stack frame. (Overrides Object.ToString().)

Fields

	Name	Description
	OFFSET_UNKNOWN	Defines the value that is returned from the GetNativeOffset or GetILOffset method when the native or Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) offset is unknown. This field is constant.

Remarks

A StackFrame object is created and pushed on the call stack for every function call that is made during the execution of a thread. The stack frame always includes MethodBase information, and optionally includes file name, line number, and column number information.

StackFrame information will be most informative with debug build configurations. By default, debug builds include debug symbols, but release builds do not. The debug symbols contain most of the file, method name, line number, and column information that is used in constructing StackFrame objects.
