Oh shoot, that’s my misunderstanding of his response I guess. So back to square zero. > On Sep 16, 2015, at 9:44 PM, Caitlin Potter wrote: > > Not quite, the mechanism which does this in the spec is SetFunctionName > (http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-setfunctionname >

Re: Will FP ever have a great Stack Trace story in JS?

Not quite, the mechanism which does this in the spec is SetFunctionName (http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-setfunctionname ), and it only works for specific syntactic constructs (eg, `foo = function() {}` ->

Re: Will FP ever have a great Stack Trace story in JS?

Also I disagree with your assessment that I should go talk to the vendors. For example Axel R.’s recent post on Function names http://www.2ality.com/2015/09/function-names-es6.html states in Section 2 the case where there is no name. I cla

Re: Will FP ever have a great Stack Trace story in JS?

For some reason the email I wrote was cut off. In practice the stack trace gets worse, my test was just too easy. The last stack trace was based around using compose from ramda. The stack trace result was: ``` Error: Invariant Violation: createClass(...): Class specification must implement a `r

Okay, let's break this down. Your example stack trace is really not a bad story. > Error: Invariant Violation: createClass(...): Class specification must > implement a `render` method. >     at invariant >(/Users/jasonkuhrt/code/test/node_modules/react/lib/invariant.js:42:15) >     at Re
