What about `nth_caller(n=1)`, with some CSS flavor? ---------------------------------------- Feature #16001: Provide an alias to Kernel#caller_locations(1,1) and Kernel#caller(1,1) https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16001#change-81395 * Author: piotrmurach (Piotr Murach) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Target version: ---------------------------------------- As it is common to use `caller_locations(1,1)` and `caller(1,1)`, this proposes aliases to help get the previous backtrace frame and improve performance by avoiding getting full backtrace information - a common mistake. The currently suggestions are: * `immediate_caller` * `first_caller` * `caller_only` This feature request is based on a conversation with Charles Nutter who says: > This is such a common thing... maybe we need to add something like #caller_only or #caller1 that basically do caller(1,1). -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
