Hi, I was exploring of some interfaces in Mac OS X if present , which might help me get a call backtrace which I want to record for some specific internal exception conditions . If some kind of unwind library is already available for use , that would really help simplify my task . I am not sure if the BSD library backtrace() and friends should be able to help me walk through all the stack frames and provide me with the arguments , parameters and the translated PC ( to symbolic names ) at any point I want to get a trace the call stack. I was reading the man page of atos and it seemed like I can take some help from its source code.Also , there seems to be a call stack generated in "/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/" for any application level crashes, if I am not wronged in assuming.This makes me assume that the basic infrastructure already exists to dump the information , and maybe I should be on my way if I can use them for my purpose instead of writing it from scratch.
