libcorkscrew alternatives on lollipop

[Martin Brehovsky]

We have been using libcorkscrew to figure out the backtrace when a native code crashed in our app. Unfortunately, as it turned out, this library is no longer present on the device in Lollipop. Is there any other alternative we can use on that version of the system?

Thanks,
Martin

Hey Martin,

You're probably best looking into integrating 'libgccunwind' which is bundled with the NDK: <NDK>\sources\android\gccunwind\libs.

If you're using a custom build-system you'll also want to ensure your source-files are compiled with '-funwind-tables'.

Hi Justin,

Can you please refer to an existing example of libgccunwind. I tried to find some examples but either I am searching wing keywords or its not really easy to find.

Thanks in advance.

the platform unwider was moved over to libunwind [ external/libunwind ]

Are we supposed to be able / allowed to use libunwind from a native application built with Android NDK only?

If yes, how?

Thank you
