I would also like to see this standardized.

Is that really necessary? If so, can you say something about the motivation? You can do some tail recursion optimizations while preserving the stack trace. For example if you call yourself recursively and the JIT turns it into a loop, then all you need is the loop trip count to recover the original stack trace. > * the minimal information that a stack trace should contain (file, line, > column) > * the format of the minimal information > * how additional information is added to the stack trace (named evals, etc) > > Does this sound like a reasonable minimal set? +1 > > _______________________________________________ > es-discuss mailing list > [email protected] > https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
