hello,

first of all, i'm using VS2005 and my question is about logging the
stack or how to see the what function calls the other.

i'm aware of the call stack window when the project (in debug/run
mode) stopped at a breakpoint but i want to log it. I want to see what
function calls the other because i think some triggers act strange (or
not as i expect).

my current sollution is this (but i can't imagine that VS2005 doesn't
have a build in functionality something like this )

my question is, is there a build in functionality for this so i don't
have to do this in my whole project if i want to see the flow of my
functions

My current solution for this problem:
(code is in VB)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

dim intDebugIndent as integer = 0 'global variable

Private Sub writeDebugLog(ByVal ex As Exception)
 Try
   Dim strFunction As String = ex.StackTrace

   If intDebugIndent > 0 Then
     For i As Integer = 0 To intDebugIndent
       strFunction = " " & strFunction
     Next
   End If

   Console.WriteLine(strFunction)

 Catch exx As Exception
 End Try
 Return
End Sub

private sub a ()
 Try
   Try
     Throw New Exception()
   Catch ex As Exception
     writeDebugLog(ex)
     intDebugIndent += 1
   End Try

   'call function b
   b()

 Catch ex as exception
   'handle exception
 Finally
   intDebugIndent  -= 1
 End Try
End Sub

private sub b ()
 Try
   Try
     Throw New Exception()
   Catch ex As Exception
     writeDebugLog(ex)
     intDebugIndent += 1
   End Try

   'do something here

 Catch ex as exception
   'handle exception
 Finally
   intDebugIndent  -= 1
 End Try
End Sub
