end
            
sender() click to toggle source

Returns the binding context of the caller from the last frame initialized

 
               # File irb/frame.rb, line 71
def Frame.sender
  eval "self", @backtrace.top
end

Public Instance Methods

bottom(n = 0) click to toggle source

Returns the n number of frames on the call stack from the first frame initialized.

Raises FrameOverflow if there are no frames in the given stack range.

 
               # File irb/frame.rb, line 54
def bottom(n = 0)
  bind = @frames[n]
  Fail FrameOverflow unless bind
  bind
end
            
top(n = 0) click to toggle source

Returns the n number of frames on the call stack from the last frame initialized.

Raises FrameUnderflow if there are no frames in the given stack range.

 
               # File irb/frame.rb, line 44
def top(n = 0)
  bind = @frames[-(n + CALL_STACK_OFFSET)]
  Fail FrameUnderflow unless bind
  bind
end
            
trace_func(event, file, line, id, binding) click to toggle source

Used by Kernel#set_trace_func to register each event in the call stack

 
               # File irb/frame.rb, line 31
def trace_func(event, file, line, id, binding)
  case event
  when 'call', 'class'
    @frames.push binding
  when 'return', 'end'
    @frames.pop
  end
