Yes, I am.
<?php
function checkpoint()
{
$trace = debug_backtrace();
$caller = isset( $trace[0] ) ? $trace[0] : array();
$owner = isset( $trace[1] ) ? $trace[1] : array();
$file
= isset( $caller['file'] )
? $caller['file']
: null;
$class
= isset( $owner['class'] )
? $owner['class']
: null;
$function
= isset( $owner['function'] )
? $owner['function']
: null;
$line
= isset( $caller['line'] )
? $caller['line']
: null;
$type
= isset( $owner['type'] )
? $owner['type']
: null;
list( $timeSub, $time ) = explode( ' ', microtime() );
$timeSub = ereg_replace( '^[^.]\.', '', $timeSub );
$timeSub = substr( str_pad( $timeSub, 6, '0' ), 0, 6 );
echo 'Checkpoint '
.'['.date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', $time ).'.'.$timeSub.']: '
.($file === null
? ''

.($line === null

}
?>
I often use the above function when debugging code. It prints detailed
information about where it was called. I have something similar in my
error handler but it's not as concise for error related reasons.
It doesn't strike me as an issue that it's a heavy function since it's
used in a debugging context or when an error is present. In which case,
it shouldn't be called in production.... at least not often :)
Cheers,
Rob.
