Abstract
A system and method for tracking callback functions for error identification is provided. Prior to a function calling a callback function, it records information relating to the back trace of function(s) that called the callback in a set of state information. In the event of an error condition, the state information may be examined to provide additional information for debugging purposes.
Claims13
A computer implemented method comprising:
- executing, on a processor, a first function, the first function configured to store a set of state information relating to a callback function;
- calling, by the first function, the callback function;
- storing the state information in memory of a mobile device executing the first function;
- and
- transferring the state information to an analytic processing server.
2 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions, the instructions, when executed by at least one processor, comprising functionality to:
- execute a first function, the first function configured to store a set of state information relating to a callback function;
- call, by the first function, the callback function;
- store the state information in memory of a mobile device executing the first function;
- and
- transmit the stored state information from the mobile device to an analytic processing server for later analysis of a cause of an error condition.
2 more elements
A system comprising:
- a processor operatively interconnected with a memory, the processor configured to execute an application, the application comprising a first function that is configured to call a callback function;
- wherein the first function is further configured to store a set of state information relating to the callback function in the memory;
- and
- wherein the first function further comprises an analytic library module configured to transmit the stored set of state information to an analytic processing server for later analysis as to a cause of an error condition.
