So you've got this big long function chain and PHP's oh-so-helpful Fatal Error messages aren't helping at all. Here's a quick example of how to do a function backtrace without throwing exceptions.
Output:
=>[0] => Array
(
[file] => someFile.php
[line] => 4
)
=> Hello World<?php
function foo()
{
$blah = bar('hello');
echo $blah;
}
function bar($foo)
{
// $function_calls will contain the entire backtrace of calls to `bar`
// $current_call will contain information for the latest call to `bar`
$function_calls = array();
foreach(debug_backtrace() as $key=>$value) {
if($value['function'] == __FUNCTION__) {
$function_calls[] = array('file'=>$value['file'], 'line'=>$value['line']);
}
}
$current_call = $function_calls[0];
print_r($current_call);
return $foo.' World';
}
foo();
