Stack level 0 always corresponds to the debug.getinfo call, 1 would be the function calling debug.getinfo, and so on. Returns useful information about that function in a table.</arg> <arg name="fields" type="string" default="flnSu">A string whose characters specify the information to be retrieved. * f - Populates the func field. * l - Populates the currentline field. * L - Populates the activelines field. * n - Populates the name and namewhat fields - only works if stack level is passed rather than function pointer. * S - Populates the location fields (lastlinedefined, linedefined, short_src, source and what). * u - Populates the argument and upvalue fields (isvararg, nparams, nups)</arg> </args> <rets> <ret name="" type="table">A table as a <page>Structures/DebugInfo</page> containing information about the function you passed.
