Accessing the Java call stack

Question

I would like to know if it's possible to access the call stack from within a method to see which method in which package called the one we are in now?

Or perhaps there is another way of doing this?

Thanks,

PS This is all in Java

Answer 1

There is a way:

Thread.currentThread().getStackTrace()

But there should not be a reason to do this other than for debug purposes.
