Question

I am confused about what a caller of a method menans in Java. Can someone clarify that with an example?

Answer 1

It is referring to the method that is calling the other method.

public void foo() {
  bar();
}

public void bar() {
   // foo could be the caller of bar here.
}

In general, if you look in your stacktrace, each two consecutive lines A and B basically mean »A is called by B« or »B is the caller of A«.
