print python stack trace without exception being raised

Question

Something is happening with one of my class\'s instance variables. I want to make the variable a property, and whenever it is accessed I want to print out the stack trace of

Answer 1

traceback.print_stack():

>>> def f():
...   def g():
...     traceback.print_stack()
...   g()
...
>>> f()
  File "", line 1, in 
  File "", line 4, in f
  File "", line 3, in g

Edit: You can also use extract_stack, take a slice (e.g. stack[5:] for exclude the first 5 levels) and use format_list to get a print-ready stacktrace ('\n'.join(traceback.format_list(...)))
