Subject: [ruby-core:26667] [Feature #578] add method to disassemble Proc objects

Issue #578 has been updated by Roger Pack.


The fact that we can get backtraces from the VM easily almost makes me wonder if the following API is possible:

Thread#backtrace_with_bindings
=>
[[file, line, method, [[:arg1_name, current_value], [:arg2_name, current_value]]

or
[[file, line, method, binding]] # so you can lookup argument values if so desired

mostly inspired by http://barelyenough.org/blog/2005/04/ruby-backtraces/ -- not sure if it's actually necessary/high priority since you can get somewhat higher quality backtraces using ruby-debug already (http://github.com/rdp/backtracer)


Thoughts?
