how to find which method called a specific method with break point in it

Question

As I was debugging my code, I placed a break point within a method called getDate().

I ran my code and execution halted right on my break point, which is great.

But is there a way in Eclipse or (preferably) Android Studio to find out which method called getDate() ?

Answer 1

Yes there is a simple way. On Android studio it's called Frames perspective, and it is part of the debugger perspective. When your app stops on a breakpoint you can inspect the whole chain of callers
