Naturally it is another self-administering task to the interpreter, so I would suggest to make it an optional 'developement-time' feature. Aabout nested includes: it would be good to return a complex data structure, when the programmer can step-back the calling process.

For example: /// some code /// $x = call_a_function(); function call_a_function() { echo "MY LOCATION: __FILE__ : __LINE__"; /*** This is what I would LOVE ***/ echo "CALLED FROM: __CALLING_FILE__ : __CALLING_LINE__"; } That would be fantastic! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=13944&edit=1
