If you need a StackTrace on some exception, you can do that by registering
for delegate calls to NSExceptionHandler.

// Tells you for what kind of Exception you want to register for..

[[NSExceptionHandler defaultExceptionHandler] setExceptionHandlingMask:

exceptionHandlingMask];

[[NSExceptionHandler defaultExceptionHandler] setDelegate: self];

// Delegate method to implement. Gets call when there is an exception.
- (BOOL)exceptionHandler:(NSExceptionHandler *)sender
shouldHandleException:(NSException *)exception mask:(unsigned int)aMask

{

// Log the stack here...

        [exception printStackTrace];

return YES;

}
