RE: [PHP] How to get a function backtrace?

[Martin Towell]

Hmm... I've been wondering if a function to do this exists too... would be
REALLY handing for debugging!!

Anyone know??

Subject: [PHP] How to get a function backtrace?


Im not sure if function-backtrace is the correct word for what I need, so
I'll explain:
If I have for example

?
a();
function a(){
b();
}

function b(){
c();
}

function c(){
$x = function_backtrace();
print_r($x);
}
?

then I want to get

array(
[0]= 'a',
[1]= 'b',
[2]= 'c'
)

or something similar. So I want to know, what functions have been called. If
you know perl, then adequate function was caller.
I already searched php.net for it but had no luck for it - so if you please
could point me to the right direction I was very happy.

TIA
