How do I get stack traces in Perl?

回答1:

There are many useful, core and CPAN based tools to generate a stack trace (as other answers illustrate.) However, if you want to roll your own, check out the caller builtin. You can use this to walk down the stack and see exactly what's happening.

Carp::confess (from use Carp;) will give you a full stack trace as part of the error. If you just need it as part of something failing, confess is all you really need.

Per comments, here's output of various Carp functions:

use strict;
use warnings;
use Carp qw/longmess cluck confess/;

sub foo {
  &bar;
}

sub bar {
   &baz;
}

sub baz {
   shift->();
}

my %tests = (
    'longmess' => sub { print longmess 'longmess' },
    'cluck'    => sub { cluck 'using cluck' },
    'confess'  => sub { confess 'using confess' },
);

while (my ($name, $sub) = each %tests) {
    print "$name - before eval:\n";
    eval {
        foo($sub);
    };
    print "$name - before if:\n";
    if ($@) {
        print "caught: $@";
    }
    print "$name - done\n\n";
}

Running this script, you get:

longmess - before eval:
longmess at - line 14
        main::baz called at - line 10
        main::bar called at - line 6
        main::foo('CODE(0x183a4d0)') called at - line 26
        eval {...} called at - line 25
longmess - before if:
longmess - done

confess - before eval:
confess - before if:
caught: using confess at - line 20
        main::__ANON__() called at - line 14
        main::baz called at - line 10
        main::bar called at - line 6
        main::foo('CODE(0x183a3e0)') called at - line 26
        eval {...} called at - line 25
confess - done

cluck - before eval:
using cluck at - line 19
        main::__ANON__() called at - line 14
        main::baz called at - line 10
        main::bar called at - line 6
        main::foo('CODE(0x183a434)') called at - line 26
        eval {...} called at - line 25
cluck - before if:
cluck - done

Running this script but redirecting STDOUT (thus showing what gets printed on STDERR), you get:

using cluck at - line 19
        main::__ANON__() called at - line 14
        main::baz called at - line 10
        main::bar called at - line 6
        main::foo('CODE(0x183a434)') called at - line 26
        eval {...} called at - line 25

For debugging needs, I like Carp::Always.

perl -MCarp::Always my_script.pl


回答4:

Easy way using caller. This code does not use any additional module. Just include it where needed.

my $i = 1;
print "Stack Trace:\n";
while ( (my @call_details = (caller($i++))) ){
  print $call_details[1].":".$call_details[2]." in function ".$call_details[3]."\n";
}
