call traceback library

[Wolfgang Draxinger]

Hi there,

does anybody know of a good, open source call traceback library.
Preferrably written and designed for C of course. Mainly I'm
interested in libraries that assume the presence of a stack and
perform a trace on that (stackwalk).

I forgot to include the architectures in question:

x86, x86_64 (aka AMD64), PowerPC.

glibc has a `backtrace' function that might be of use.

Ah, thanks. However I need some portability, as the application
in question is targeted toward several platforms, and only on
one of those there's the glibc widely avaliable.

I remeber, that I've seen some stack walker on the homepage of
HP, IIRC, but using Google & Co. found me nothing :-(
