debugging - How to find out where the method was called in Java? -

i have more 100 class files. got error message in 1 method when return values. example:

public string name() {     return("john");  // error message appeared here }

my problem couldn't find out has been called.

you may print calling stack way :

for (stacktraceelement ste : thread.currentthread().getstacktrace()) {     system.out.println(ste); }

note ide have shortcuts find given method called.

for instance in eclipse, select method, ctrl+shift+g show possible callers of method.

you may use debugger , step-by-step check.
