# Document-class: TracePoint # # A class that provides the functionality of Kernel#set_trace_func in a nice # Object-Oriented API. # # ## Example # # We can use TracePoint to gather information specifically for exceptions: # # trace = TracePoint.new(:raise) do |tp| # p [tp.lineno, tp.event, tp.raised_exception] # end # #=> # # # trace.enable # #=> false # # 0 / 0 # #=> [5, :raise, #] # # ## Events # # If you don't specify the type of events you want to listen for, TracePoint # will include all available events. # # **Note** do not depend on current event set, as this list is subject to # change. Instead, it is recommended you specify the type of events you want to # use. # # To filter what is traced, you can pass any of the following as `events`: # # `:line` # : execute code on a new line # `:class` # : start a class or module definition # `:end` # : finish a class or module definition # `:call` # : call a Ruby method # `:return` # : return from a Ruby method # `:c_call` # : call a C-language routine # `:c_return` # : return from a C-language routine # `:raise` # : raise an exception # `:b_call` # : event hook at block entry # `:b_return` # : event hook at block ending # `:thread_begin` # : event hook at thread beginning # `:thread_end` # : event hook at thread ending # `:fiber_switch` # : event hook at fiber switch # `:script_compiled` # : new Ruby code compiled (with `eval`, `load` or `require`) # # class TracePoint < Object # Returns a new TracePoint object, not enabled by default. # # Next, in order to activate the trace, you must use TracePoint#enable # # trace = TracePoint.new(:call) do |tp| # p [tp.lineno, tp.defined_class, tp.method_id, tp.event] # end # #=> # # # trace.enable # #=> false # # puts "Hello, TracePoint!" # # ... # # [48, IRB::Notifier::AbstractNotifier, :printf, :call] # # ... # # When you want to deactivate the trace, you must use TracePoint#disable # # trace.disable # # See TracePoint@Events for possible events and more information. # # A block must be given, otherwise an ArgumentError is raised. # # If the trace method isn't included in the given events filter, a RuntimeError # is raised. # # TracePoint.trace(:line) do |tp| # p tp.raised_exception # end # #=> RuntimeError: 'raised_exception' not supported by this event # # If the trace method is called outside block, a RuntimeError is raised. # # TracePoint.trace(:line) do |tp| # $tp = tp # end # $tp.lineno #=> access from outside (RuntimeError) # # Access from other threads is also forbidden. # def initialize: (*Symbol events) { (TracePoint tp) -> void } -> void # Returns internal information of TracePoint. # # The contents of the returned value are implementation specific.
