NAME

Devel::StackTrace::WithLexicals - Devel::StackTrace + PadWalker

SYNOPSIS

    use Devel::StackTrace::WithLexicals;
    my $trace = Devel::StackTrace::WithLexicals->new;
    ${ $trace->frame(1)->lexical('$self') }->oh_god_why();

DESCRIPTION

Devel::StackTrace is pretty good at generating stack traces.
PadWalker is pretty good at the inspection and modification of your callers' lexical variables.
Devel::StackTrace::WithLexicals is pretty good at generating stack traces with all your callers' lexical variables.

METHODS

All the same as Devel::StackTrace, except that frames (in class Devel::StackTrace::WithLexicals::Frame) also have a "lexicals" method. This returns the same hashref as returned by PadWalker.
If the "no_refs" option to Devel::StackTrace is used, then each reference is stringified. This can be useful to avoid leaking memory.
Simple, really.

BUGS

I had to copy and paste some code from Devel::StackTrace to achieve this (it's hard to subclass). There may be bugs lingering here.
