Returns the call stack for an error at the time of the error's construction as a
string. As shown in the following example, the first line of the return value is
the string representation of the exception object, followed by the stack trace
elements:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference
at com.xyz::OrderEntry/retrieveData()[/src/com/xyz/OrderEntry.as:995]
at com.xyz::OrderEntry/init()[/src/com/xyz/OrderEntry.as:200]
at com.xyz::OrderEntry()[/src/com/xyz/OrderEntry.as:148]
The preceding listing shows the value of this method when called in a debugger
version of Flash Player or code running in the AIR Debug Launcher (ADL). When code
runs in a release version of Flash Player or AIR, the stack trace is provided
without the file path and line number information, as in the following example:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference
at com.xyz::OrderEntry/retrieveData()
at com.xyz::OrderEntry/init()
at com.xyz::OrderEntry()
For Flash Player 11.4 and earlier and AIR 3.4 and earlier, stack traces are only
available when code is running in the debugger version of Flash Player or the AIR
Debug Launcher (ADL). In non-debugger versions of those runtimes, calling this
method returns null
.
Returns:
A string representation of the call stack.
