[boost] [stacktrace] Not working on Cygwin

[Phil Bouchard via Boost]

Hi,

I tried stacktrace on Cygwin and after tweaking some local and system
headers I was able to compile libboost_stacktrace_windbg.a and
libboost_stacktrace_addr2line.a but when I run my application calls to
boost::stacktrace::stacktrace(1, 1) doesn't output anything.

It works fine under Linux using libboost_stacktrace_backtrace.a.


Thanks in advance for your help,
-Phil

Thanks for the issue report!

What headers have you changed in what manner? What version of Cygwin
do you have and were did you downloaded it?

Basically I have installed the latest Cygwin and:

- There is a missing boost/stacktrace/detail/push_options.pp

- There is a missing boost/stacktrace/detail/pop_options.pp

- I had to change the scope of GetModuleFileNameA in:
stacktrace/detail/location_from_symbol.hpp:
if (!GetModuleFileNameA(handle, file_name_, DEFAULT_PATH_SIZE_))

- I had to change some __POSIX_VISIBLE macros in the system header files
to enable some functions:
/usr/include/stdio.h:337:#if 1//__POSIX_VISIBLE
/usr/include/sys/signal.h:177:#if 1//__POSIX_VISIBLE
/cygwin64/usr/include/sys/unistd.h:292:#if 1//__BSD_VISIBLE ||
__POSIX_VISIBLE >= 200112 || __XSI_VISIBLE >= 4


Thanks,
-Phil
