Troubleshooting
Problem
Using built-in service pub.flow:getCallingService to return the name of the calling service.
This works okay in general except in the following instance where it returns null values in DEBUG mode:
1. Flow service "flow1" calls Java Service
2. Java service calls Flow service "flow2" (using Service.DoInvoke)
3. Flow service "flow2" calls child service "flow3"
4. Child service "flow3 called pub.flow:getCallingService which returns null values rather than "flow2"
This works okay when invoking the top level service using "Run as", but not when using "Debug as".
