If you just download this little file:

http://arsdnet.net/dcode/linetrace.d

and add it to your build, when compiling in debug mode, it will translate the addresses into line numbers (by simply piping out to addr2line on the command line)

No modification to your program is required.

Notice the line numbers on the first two lines.


I also added a -version=hide_names that will cut out the function names (and the druntime lines) with the logic being that the line number in your own code is probably the most relevant part to you anyway and you don't need any distractiions:

dmd yourapp.d linetrace.d -g -version=hide_names

object.Exception@x.d(4): test
----------------
/home/me/test/x.d:5
/home/me/test/x.d:11


My code isn't too complex: it wraps the default handler then manipulates the string using plain phobos techniques. Inefficient surely, but since the program is probably dying anyway when this is called, I don't mind it. addr2line does need to be available on the system for this to work though. If it isn't, the old address behavior should still work.

I suspect this will also work on other posix systems but I haven't tried.


But the simple code there ought to be easy enough for you to customize to your liking too.
