What does it mean to move a frame up or down?

[Siddharth Jain]

I am going through the Delve CLI documentation here: https://github.com/go-delve/delve/tree/master/Documentation/cli

I was wondering if anyone could explain what does it mean to move a frame up or down. In general the docs page is extremely bland and would be good to provide more details and examples on what various commands do.

 The docs just say

down	Move the current frame down.

up	Move the current frame up.

Hey,

I agree the docs could be a lot less vague in this regard.

Here we are talking about the stack frame where up/down will move you up or down in the function call stack.

Pdb (python's debugger, which I believe is the "insipration" for those commands) has:


d(own) [count]

Move the current frame count (default one) levels down in the stack trace (to a newer frame).

u(p) [count]

Move the current frame count (default one) levels up in the stack trace (to an older frame).
