Stack Panel

The Stack Panel is a panel in the top-level Main Window. The Stack Panel displays the current stack backtrace as a table for the currently selected thread in the debugger. Each row in the table represents a stack frame. The top row is the outermost frame [away from main()]. The bottom row is the innermost frame [towards main() or run()].

The selected row in the table, indicates the current context of the debugger. The User can select a row in the table to traverse the stack to a particular frame.
