Section 10.2. The Call Stack

10.2 The Call Stack

As you step in and out of methods , the Call Stack window will keep track of the order and hierarchy of method calls. If you look back at Figure 10-2, you'll see the Call Stack window in the lower righthand corner of the application. Figure 10-12 shows a close-up picture of the Call Stack window. You can see that the Time constructor was called by the Run( ) method, while the Run( ) method was in turn called by Main( ).

Figure 10-12. The call stack

In this case, if you double-click on the second line in the Call Stack window, the debugger will show you the line in Run( ) that called the Time constructor, as shown in Figure 10-13.
