When you are running into bugs or issues in you Android Apps, callstack information of your components would be very much helpful, defintely.
Here is a post I’v found in freescale community, auther by MingZhou, it instructs you have get the caller stack information for you Android App or components. The original url is: https://community.freescale.com/docs/DOC-93624
———————-
Print caller stack may help you to analyze the program and find out the caller stack more easily.
You can write your code like this:
Java:
Exception e = new Exception();
Log.e(TAG,"xxx",e);
C++ file:
#include <utils/Callstack.h>
android::CallStack stack;
stack.update(1,30);
stacn.dump("xxx");
Then you can see the function’s caller stack in Android main log file.
C file:
#include <corkscrew/backtrace.h>
#define MAX_DEPTH 31
#define MAX_BACKTRACE_LINE_LENGTH 800
static backtrace_frame_t mStack[MAX_DEPTH];
static size_t mCount;
void csupdate(int32_t ignoreDepth, int32_t maxDepth)
{
if (maxDepth > MAX_DEPTH)
{
maxDepth = MAX_DEPTH;
}
ssize_t count = unwind_backtrace(mStack, ignoreDepth + 1, maxDepth);
mCount = count > 0 ? count : 0;
}
void csdump(const char* prefix)
{
size_t i = 0;
backtrace_symbol_t symbols[MAX_DEPTH];
get_backtrace_symbols(mStack, mCount, symbols);
for (i = 0; i < mCount; i++) {
char line[MAX_BACKTRACE_LINE_LENGTH];
format_backtrace_line(i, &mStack[i], &symbols[i],line, MAX_BACKTRACE_LINE_LENGTH);
ALOGE(“%s%s”, prefix, line);
}
free_backtrace_symbols(symbols, mCount);
}
void myFunc() { csupdate(1, 30); csdump("myprefix"); }
In Android.mk, add libcorkscrew, as below
LOCAL_SHARED_LIBRARIES := libxxx libyyy libcorkscrew
