Hi All,
Happy new year!
I know this has been mentioned before and revisited recently, but, could we please have some code that exposes the proc and current line numbers of the last x processes from the stack? It is not acceptable for our applications to drop to debugger in a live situation when some problems occur - a message with some stack info is much more acceptable and enough to allow us to debug the problem back at base!
Any chance?

The line numbers aren't accessible, as there isn't a 1-1 relationship between the source and the object. For example, loops resolve into conditional jump and a goto.
Perhaps better quality source code is the answer?
Or are the debugger drops due to calling external DLLs ?
If you were to use a "DEBUGGER_REPLACEMENT" subroutine, you can then use the common variables from the RTI_DEBUG_COMMON insert to get alot of info. The LINENO@ variable is multivalued with line numbers and the CALLSTACK@ variable is multivalued with the programs.
You will also need to set your environment debugger settings to "INTERCEPT" within the DATABASE MANAGER.
Thanks for the input guys, but the prog is not dropping to the debugger - I mentioned it as the getsessioncallstack() function returns prog and line info after a debug - but we do not want to force a debug as the error merrage is generated by a prog when it attempts to i/o a table that does not exist on a client system. It's just that at the popint the prog tries to open a table - we no longer know what it was.
I won't bore you with the details on how and why it does things as I am convinced some parts were written by Aliens - but I think I will roadmap another global app change to avoid in future…
Cheers!
