+All internal errors thrown in V8 capture a stack trace when they are created that can be accessed from JavaScript through the error.stack property.  V8 also has various hooks for controlling how stack traces are collected and formatted, and for allowing custom errors to also collect stack traces.  This document outlines V8's JavaScript stack trace API.
+
+### Basic stack traces
+
+By default, almost all errors thrown by V8 have a `stack` property that holds the topmost 10 stack frames, formatted as a string.  Here's an example of a fully formatted stack trace:
+
+```
+ReferenceError: FAIL is not defined
+   at Constraint.execute (deltablue.js:525:2)
+   at Constraint.recalculate (deltablue.js:424:21)
+   at Planner.addPropagate (deltablue.js:701:6)
+   at Constraint.satisfy (deltablue.js:184:15)
+   at Planner.incrementalAdd (deltablue.js:591:21)
+   at Constraint.addConstraint (deltablue.js:162:10)
+   at Constraint.BinaryConstraint (deltablue.js:346:7)
+   at Constraint.EqualityConstraint (deltablue.js:515:38)
+   at chainTest (deltablue.js:807:6)
+   at deltaBlue (deltablue.js:879:2)
+```
+
+The stack trace is collected when the error is created and is the same regardless of where or how many times the error is thrown.  We collect 10 frames because it is usually enough to be useful but not so many that it has a noticeable performance impact.  You can control how many stack frames are collected by setting the variable
+
+```
+Error.stackTraceLimit
+```
+
+Setting it to 0 will disable stack trace collection.  Any finite integer value will be used as the maximum number of frames to collect.  Setting it to `Infinity` means that all frames will be collected.  This variable only affects the current context, it has to be set explicitly for each context that needs a different value.  (Note that what is known as a "context" in V8 terminology corresponds to a page or iframe in Google Chrome).  To set a different default value that affects all contexts use the
+
+```
+--stack-trace-limit <value>
+```
+
+command-line flag to V8.  To pass this flag to V8 when running Google Chrome use
+
+```
+--js-flags="--stack-trace-limit <value>"
+```
+
+### Stack trace collection for custom exceptions
+The stack trace mechanism used for built-in errors is implemented using a general stack trace collection API that is also available to user scripts.  The function
+
+```
+Error.captureStackTrace(error, constructorOpt)
+```
+
+adds a stack property to the given `error` object that will yield the stack trace at the time captureStackTrace was called.  The reason for not just returning the formatted stack trace directly is that this way we can postpone the formatting of the stack trace until the stack property is accessed and avoid formatting completely if it never is.
+
+The optional `constructorOpt` parameter allows you to pass in a function value.  When collecting the stack trace all frames above the topmost call to this function, including that call, will be left out of the stack trace.  This can be useful to hide implementation details that won't be useful to the user.  The usual way of defining a custom error that captures a stack trace would be:
+
+```
+function MyError() {
+  Error.captureStackTrace(this, MyError);
+  // any other initialization
+}
+```
+
+Passing in MyError as a second argument means that the constructor call to MyError won't show up in the stack trace.
+
+### Customizing stack traces
+Unlike Java where the stack trace of an exception is a structured value that allows inspection of the stack state, the stack property in V8 just holds a flat string containing the formatted stack trace.  This is for no other reason than compatibility with other browsers.  However, this is not hardcoded but only the default behavior and can be overridden by user scripts.
+
+For efficiency stack traces are not formatted when they are captured but on demand, the first time the stack property is accessed.  A stack trace is formatted by calling
+
+```
+Error.prepareStackTrace(error, structuredStackTrace)
+```
+
+and using whatever this call returns as the value of the `stack` property.  If you assign a different function value to `Error.prepareStackTrace` that function will be used to format stack traces.  It will be passed the error object that it is preparing a stack trace for and a structured representation of the stack.  User stack trace formatters are free to format the stack trace however they want and even return non-string values.  It is safe to retain references to the structured stack trace object after a call to prepareStackTrace completes so that it is also a valid return value.  Note that the custom prepareStackTrace function is immediately called at the point when the error object is created (e.g. with `new Error()`).
+
+The structured stack trace is an Array of CallSite objects, each of which represents a stack frame.  A CallSite object defines the following methods
+
+  * **getThis**: returns the value of this
+  * **getTypeName**: returns the type of this as a string.  This is the name of the function stored in the constructor field of this, if available, otherwise the object's `[[Class]]` internal property.
+  * **getFunction**: returns the current function
+  * **getFunctionName**: returns the name of the current function, typically its name property.  If a name property is not available an attempt will be made to try to infer a name from the function's context.
+  * **getMethodName**: returns the name of the property of this or one of its prototypes that holds the current function
+  * **getFileName**: if this function was defined in a script returns the name of the script
+  * **getLineNumber**: if this function was defined in a script returns the current line number
+  * **getColumnNumber**: if this function was defined in a script returns the current column number
+  * **getEvalOrigin**: if this function was created using a call to eval returns a CallSite object representing the location where eval was called
+  * **isToplevel**: is this a toplevel invocation, that is, is this the global object?
+  * **isEval**: does this call take place in code defined by a call to eval?
+  * **isNative**: is this call in native V8 code?
+  * **isConstructor**: is this a constructor call?
+
+The default stack trace is created using the CallSite API so any information that is available there is also available through this API.
+
+To maintain restrictions imposed on strict mode functions, frames that have a strict mode function and all frames below (its caller etc.) are not allow to access their receiver and function objects. For those frames, `getFunction()` and `getThis()` will return `undefined`.
+
+### Compatibility
+The API described here is specific to V8 and is not supported by any other JavaScript implementations.  Most implementations do provide an `error.stack` property but the format of the stack trace is likely to be different from the format described here.  The recommended use of this API is
+
+  * Only rely on the layout of the formatted stack trace if you know your code is running in v8.
+  * It is safe to set `Error.stackTraceLimit` and `Error.prepareStackTrace` regardless of which implementation is running your code but be aware that it will only have an effect if your code is running in V8.
+
+### Appendix: Stack trace format
+The default stack trace format used by V8 can for each stack frame give the following information:
+
+  * Whether the call is a construct call.
+  * The type of the this value (Type).
+  * The name of the function called (functionName).
+  * The name of the property of this or one of its prototypes that holds the function (methodName).
+  * The current location within the source (location)
+
+Any of these may be unavailable and different formats for stack frames are used depending on how much of this information is available.  If all the above information is available a formatted stack frame will look like this:
+
+```
+at Type.functionName [as methodName] (location)
+```
+
+or, in the case of a construct call
+
+```
+at new functionName (location)
+```
+
+If only one of functionName and methodName is available, or if they are both available but the same, the format will be:
+
+```
+at Type.name (location)
+```
+
+If neither is available `<anonymous>` will be used as the name.
+
+The Type value is the name of the function stored in the constructor field of this.  In v8 all constructor calls set this property to the constructor function so unless this field has been actively changed after the object was created it it will hold the name of the function it was created by.  If it is unavailable the `[[Class]]` property of the object will be used.
+
+One special case is the global object where the Type is not shown.  In that case the stack frame will be formatted as
+
+```
+at functionName [as methodName] (location)
+```
+
+The location itself has several possible formats.  Most common is the file name, line and column number within the script that defined the current function
+
+```
+fileName:lineNumber:columnNumber
+```
+
+If the current function was created using eval the format will be
+
+```
+eval at position
+```
+
+where position is the full position where the call to eval occurred.  Note that this means that positions can be nested if there are nested calls to eval, for instance:
+
+```
+eval at Foo.a (eval at Bar.z (myscript.js:10:3))
+```
+
+If a stack frame is within V8's libraries the location will be
+
+```
+native
+```
+
+and if is unavailable it will be
+
+```
+unknown location
+```
