I'd like to request access to the vault. I'm going to upload a proof-of-concept of some of the things I mentioned earlier in my thread about Boost.Debug. This early version gives simple stack traces in limited scenarios, only supports Windows, and isn't designed very well. Here's an example of a program using it in its current form:
void test_func(int argc, int argc2, char* argv[]) { stack_trace trace(10); //Maximum depth of 10 levels std::cout << trace.string() << std::endl; }
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { test_func(argc, argc, argv); return 0; }
and an example of the stack trace printed as a result of this program:
void test_func(int, int, char**) [f:/dev/stack_trace/main.cpp:10] int main(int, char**) [f:/dev/stack_trace/main.cpp:23] int __tmainCRTStartup() [f:/dd/vctools/crt_bld/self_x86/crt/src/crtexe.c:406] int mainCRTStartup() [f:/dd/vctools/crt_bld/self_x86/crt/src/crtexe.c:389]
I have some very similar code that works with MSVC (32 bit targets, anyway), MinGW and Mac OS X. Please feel free to take anything you might want: http://bitbucket.org/edd/stack_trace/wiki/Home Also, someone has written some modifications to get the MinGW version to use a dll from Wine in order to loosen some of the licensing restrictions (the MinGW code needs to link against libbfd, which is GPL). More on that here: http://realazthat.blogspot.com/2008/12/stack-trace-from-within-program.html
It also currently supports printing the names of all the arguments, but it was hackish and I left it out until it undergoes some redesign.
I didn't go this far! Kind regards, Edd
