Hi Paul,
Thanks for your mail. Unfortunately CLDC won't let me do any of this.
The only methods available on CLDC Throwable are: getMessage,
printStackTrace and toString (apart from inherited Object methods).
I too use various methods to grab the stack trace in J2SE. It's just
that none of those options are available with CLDC.
You are correct that I can print out debug data to the screen, but the
printStackTrace won't go there. The printStackTrace also can't be sent
to the application trace by setting AppTrace in the jam file. The only
place I can view it is on the command line when I run the emulator, i.e.
not on the handset.
Anyways I'm not so interested in printing the debug info to the screen,
I'm more interested in being able to send it over the wire so I can
batch test/benchmark many different phone types without having to
tediously view their screens one at a time. As I mentioned I have code
to do this already, i.e. send debug data back over http from unit-tests
running on multiple phones. What I'm looking for is some way to send the
stack trace info as well as the debug/benchmarking info, but it seems
like it will be impossible to display that in any form outside of the
emulator.
Many thanks
