<div class='docblock'><p>A library for acquiring a backtrace at runtime</p>
<p>This library is meant to supplement the <code>RUST_BACKTRACE=1</code> support of the
standard library by allowing an acquisition of a backtrace at runtime
programmatically. The backtraces generated by this library do not need to be
parsed, for example, and expose the functionality of multiple backend
implementations.</p>
<h1 id="implementation" class="section-header"><a href="#implementation">Implementation</a></h1>
<p>This library makes use of a number of strategies for actually acquiring a
backtrace. For example unix uses libgcc's libunwind bindings by default to
acquire a backtrace, but coresymbolication or dladdr is used on OSX to
acquire symbol names while linux uses gcc's libbacktrace.</p>
<p>When using the default feature set of this library the &quot;most reasonable&quot; set
of defaults is chosen for the current platform, but the features activated
can also be controlled at a finer granularity.</p>
<h1 id="platform-support" class="section-header"><a href="#platform-support">Platform Support</a></h1>
<p>Currently this library is verified to work on Linux, OSX, and Windows, but
it may work on other platforms as well. Note that the quality of the
backtrace may vary across platforms.</p>
<h1 id="api-principles" class="section-header"><a href="#api-principles">API Principles</a></h1>
<p>This library attempts to be as flexible as possible to accommodate different
backend implementations of acquiring a backtrace. Consequently the currently
exported functions are closure-based as opposed to the likely expected
iterator-based versions. This is done due to limitations of the underlying
APIs used from the system.</p>
<h1 id="usage" class="section-header"><a href="#usage">Usage</a></h1>

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
<p>
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
</p>
<p>
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
and <code>const</code>.
</p>
<p>
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
