Virtuemart $variables. Where can I learn / output them?

Question

Within Virtuemart, i'm referencing such things like

 $this->product->images[0]->file_url;

and

 $category->category_name;

With little documentation, is there some technique that I can find what variable references are available to me? How do I know if I can access, say $this->product->product_title. How do I get these out of VM, with no documentation?

Short of best guessing what do developers do..

Try this

print_r($this->product);exit();

Then check the source code of the page

Yeah check the source code to display it properly. Displayed is all the content of $product variable. Then you call what you need... – Julien Meilleur Apr 25 '12 at 12:59
