# CallStackGet

Returns an array of structs by default of the current tag context.

Each struct contains template name, line number, and function name (if applicable). This is a snapshot of all function calls or invocations.

## Method Signature

```
CallStackGet(maxFrames=[integer])
```

### Arguments

| Argument    | Type      | Required | Description | Default |
| ----------- | --------- | -------- | ----------- | ------- |
| `maxFrames` | `integer` | `false`  |             | `-1`    |

## Examples

### Tag Syntax

This example the factorial of a number is computed.

```java
<!--- callfact.bxm --->
<bx:try>
    <bx:include template="fact.bxm">

<bx:catch type="any">
    <bx:output>
        #bxcatch.MESSAGE#
        <br>#bxcatch.DETAIL#<br>
    </bx:output>
</bx:catch></bx:try>
```

### Script Syntax

This example the factorial of a number is computed.

```java
<!--- fact.bxm --->
<bx:script>

	numeric function factorial( Any n ) {
		if( n == 1 ) {
			writeDump( callStackGet() );
			writeOutput( "<br>" );
			return 1;
		}
		 else {
			writeDump( callStackGet() );
			writeOutput( "<br>" );
			return n * factorial( n - 1 );
		}
	}
	factorial( 5 );
</bx:script>

```

### Additional Examples

```java
dump( var=CallStackGet( type="json" ), label="json " );
dump( var=CallStackGet( type="json", offset=2 ), label="json with offset" );
dump( var=CallStackGet( type="json", maxframes=2 ), label="json with maxFrames" );
dump( var=CallStackGet( "string" ), label="string" );
dump( var=CallStackGet( "array" ), label="array" );
dump( var=CallStackGet( "html" ), label="html" );

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://boxlang.ortusbooks.com/boxlang-language/reference/built-in-functions/system/callstackget.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
