Development page updated with debug.caller_name() helper hint

[anatoly techtonik]

Hi,

I've updated Development wiki page to include a few hints I use constantly to research Spyder internals. Can't resist to share the awesomeness. =)

    import sys; print >> sys.stderr, 'Called from:', spyderlib.utils.debug.caller_name()

Hope this will help you as well.

Thanks for sharing, Anatoly.

I realized that I am unable to remember all the classes and methods, and inheritance, and it was hard to jump from one to another while debugging Spyder internals, so I've added another helper in https://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/source/detail?r=b21e117e61145f239f9de69796f0804e9ae5c9e8 that allows to dump execution chain to file. Hopefully it will be useful for you too.
