  Missing stack frames? Nikolaus Rath <Nikolaus@rath.org> - 2014-06-03 19:30 -0700

#72579 — Missing stack frames?

Hello,

(This may or may not be related to my mail about a "corrupted stack
trace").

I've instrumented one of my unit tests with a conditional
'pdb.set_trace' in some circumstances (specifically, when a function is
called by a thread other than MainThread). However, when trying to print
a back trace to figure out how this function got called, I get this:

$ py.test-3 tests/t1_backends.py -k extra

What does this mean? Why is there no caller above the backends/common.py code? At
the very least, I would have expected some frames from threading.py...?


Best,
-Nikolaus
