Viewing the call stack

The call stack view describes the current stack of calls for the focus thread.

About this task

To open the call stack view, select View > Call Stack.

For C++ and Java, each line in the call stack view depicts a single function using the following member pointer notation:

<instance>-><operation>

If the operation does not belong to any instance (for example, top-level function calls) or is a constructor, only the operation name is displayed. Operations are added and removed from the stack in LIFO (last-in, first-out) order. The most recent operation is always placed on and popped off the top of the stack.
