Almost overflowed

Posted in General at 5:15 pm by Steven

I wish my Java debugger could catch an AlmostStackOverflowError. Catching the StackOverflowError is nice and all, but when I go to try to see the values of variables in the stack frames, I get errors that I presume are because there’s no stack left to evaluate the values. I’d sorta think that evaluation would be done somewhere outside the overflown stack anyway, but then, I don’t really know a thing about Java debugging internals, I just know when I’m stuck…
