Description Robin Green 2001-06-11 15:29:43 UTC 
It would be very useful to implement equivalents for the "up" and "down"
commands in jdb, so that you could step up and down the call stack and see
variables etc. on different points in the stack, without having to step to them
(which could destroy information, and even change what you are trying to inspect!)
Comment 1 Robin Green 2001-06-11 17:58:26 UTC 
Oops! This feature is already present (the expand/collapse icons next to each
line in the call stack). Sorry for time-wasting.
