But Bill! Isn't it just so easy to load your program into the debugger
and have it
break on segfault?
}
I especially love tracking down really insidious segfaults which are
data-dependent or which don't rear their head until half an hour into
execution. Yeah, it's completely practical to load the program into the
debugger then.
I put shinichiro's stacktrace patch into Phobos a few months ago and LOVED
it. Of course it went away when I updated DMD, and I never got around to
putting it back in, but..
