accessing the stack

Is it possible to gain access to the current stack context (i.e.,  
MethodContext or BlockContext) in Squeak?


thanks,
Niko

Use special variable thisContext

Yes, easily. 'thisContext' is a context variable known in every method.  Its value is always the MethodContext which is executing the method.

'thisContext' is a variable name treated in the same way as 'self', 'super', etc. See VariableNode>>initialize.

Hope this helps
