PHP error handling functions - debug_backtrace()
Introduction
The debug_backtrace() function is used to generate a PHP backtrace.
Syntax:
debug_backtrace(provide_object )
Parameters:
provide_object: Specifies whether the object index is to be populated or not. Type of provide_object is boolean.
Return Values:
debug_backtrace() function returns an associative array. Here is a list of the possible returned elements :
Name | Type | Description | |
---|---|---|---|
function | string | Name of the current function. | |
line | integer | The Current line number. | |
file | string | The Current file name. | |
class | string | The Current class name. | |
object | object | The Current object name. | |
type | string | Specifies the current call type. | |
For a method call. | -> is returned. | ||
For a static method call. | :: is returned. | ||
For a function call. | nothing is returned. | ||
args | array | If inside a function. | this lists the functions arguments. |
If inside an included file. | this lists the included file name(s). |
Example:
<?php
function w3r($str)
{
echo "We are learning:".$str."<br />";
var_dump(debug_backtrace());
}
w3r('php');
?>
The above code displays this output:
We are learning:php array(1) { [0]=> array(4) { ["file"]=> string(92) "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\php\debug-backtrace-example.php" ["line"]=> int(8) ["function"]=> string(3) "w3r" ["args"]=> array(1) { [0]=> &string(3) "php" } } }

PHP: Tips of the Day
How to Sort Multi-dimensional Array by Value?
Try a usort, If you are still on PHP 5.2 or earlier, you'll have to define a sorting function first:
Example:
function sortByOrder($a, $b) { return $a['order'] - $b['order']; } usort($myArray, 'sortByOrder');
Starting in PHP 5.3, you can use an anonymous function:
usort($myArray, function($a, $b) { return $a['order'] - $b['order']; });
And finally with PHP 7 you can use the spaceship operator:
usort($myArray, function($a, $b) { return $a['order'] <=> $b['order']; });
To extend this to multi-dimensional sorting, reference the second/third sorting elements if the first is zero - best explained below. You can also use this for sorting on sub-elements.
usort($myArray, function($a, $b) { $retval = $a['order'] <=> $b['order']; if ($retval == 0) { $retval = $a['suborder'] <=> $b['suborder']; if ($retval == 0) { $retval = $a['details']['subsuborder'] <=> $b['details']['subsuborder']; } } return $retval; });
If you need to retain key associations, use uasort() - see comparison of array sorting functions in the manual
