StackTrace Constructor ()

.NET Framework (current version)
 

Initializes a new instance of the StackTrace class from the caller's frame.

Namespace:   System.Diagnostics
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

C#
C++
F#
VB
Copy 
public:
StackTrace()

The StackTrace is created with the caller's current thread, and does not contain file name, line number, or column information.

Use this default constructor when you want a complete trace with only summary method information about the call stack.

The following code example displays the first and last function calls in a stack trace.

C#
C++
VB
Copy 
void Level5Method()
{
   try
   {
      ClassLevel6^ nestedClass = gcnew ClassLevel6;
      nestedClass->Level6Method();
   }
   catch ( Exception^ e ) 
   {
      Console::WriteLine( " Level5Method exception handler" );
      StackTrace^ st = gcnew StackTrace;

      // Display the most recent function call.
      StackFrame^ sf = st->GetFrame( 0 );
      Console::WriteLine();
      Console::WriteLine( "  Exception in method: " );
      Console::WriteLine( "      {0}", sf->GetMethod() );
      if ( st->FrameCount > 1 )
      {

         // Display the highest-level function call
         // in the trace.
         sf = st->GetFrame( st->FrameCount - 1 );
         Console::WriteLine( "  Original function call at top of call stack):" );
         Console::WriteLine( "      {0}", sf->GetMethod() );
      }
      Console::WriteLine();
      Console::WriteLine( "   ... throwing exception to next level ..." );
      Console::WriteLine( "-------------------------------------------------\n" );
      throw e;
   }
