NAME
       Test2::EventFacet::Trace - Debug information for events

DESCRIPTION
       The Test2::API::Context object, as well as all Test2::Event types need
       to have access to information about where they were created.  This
       object represents that information.

SYNOPSIS
           use Test2::EventFacet::Trace;

           my $trace = Test2::EventFacet::Trace->new(
               frame => [$package, $file, $line, $subname],
           );

FACET FIELDS
       $string = $trace->{details}
       $string = $trace->details()
           Used as a custom trace message that will be used INSTEAD of "at
           <FILE> line <LINE>" when calling "$trace->debug".

       $frame = $trace->{frame}
       $frame = $trace->frame()
           Get the call frame arrayref.

       $int = $trace->{pid}
       $int = $trace->pid()
           The process ID in which the event was generated.

       $int = $trace->{tid}
       $int = $trace->tid()
           The thread ID in which the event was generated.

       $id = $trace->{cid}
       $id = $trace->cid()
           The ID of the context that was used to create the event.

       $uuid = $trace->{uuid}
       $uuid = $trace->uuid()
           The UUID of the context that was used to create the event. (If uuid
           tagging was enabled)

   DISCOURAGED HUB RELATED FIELDS
       These fields were not always set properly by tools. These are MOSTLY
       deprecated by the Test2::EventFacet::Hub facets. These fields are not
       required, and may only reflect the hub that was current when the event
       was created, which is not necessarily the same as the hub the event was
       sent through.

       Some tools did do a good job setting these to the correct hub, but you
       cannot always rely on that. Use the 'hubs' facet list instead.

       $hid = $trace->{hid}
       $hid = $trace->hid()
           The ID of the hub that was current when the event was created.

       $huuid = $trace->{huuid}
       $huuid = $trace->huuid()
           The UUID of the hub that was current when the event was created.
           (If uuid tagging was enabled).

       $int = $trace->{nested}
       $int = $trace->nested()
           How deeply nested the event is.

       $bool = $trace->{buffered}
       $bool = $trace->buffered()
           True if the event was buffered and not sent to the formatter
           independent of a parent (This should never be set when nested is 0
           or "undef").

METHODS
       Note: All facet frames are also methods.

       $trace->set_detail($msg)
       $msg = $trace->detail
           Used to get/set a custom trace message that will be used INSTEAD of
           "at <FILE> line <LINE>" when calling "$trace->debug".

           "detail()" is an alias to the "details" facet field for backwards
           compatibility.

       $str = $trace->debug
           Typically returns the string "at <FILE> line <LINE>". If "detail"
           is set then its value will be returned instead.

       $trace->alert($MESSAGE)
           This issues a warning at the frame (filename and line number where
           errors should be reported).

       $trace->throw($MESSAGE)
           This throws an exception at the frame (filename and line number
           where errors should be reported).

       ($package, $file, $line, $subname) = $trace->call()
           Get the caller details for the debug-info. This is where errors
           should be reported.

       $pkg = $trace->package
           Get the debug-info package.

       $file = $trace->file
           Get the debug-info filename.

       $line = $trace->line
           Get the debug-info line number.

       $subname = $trace->subname
           Get the debug-info subroutine name.

       $sig = trace->signature
           Get a signature string that identifies this trace. This is used to
           check if multiple events are related. The signature includes pid,
           tid, file, line number, and the cid.
