This is kdelibs4support, this code is doomed to disappear and apps are using kDebug less and less. Is it worth risking compilation breakages on some systems? Also I found kBacktrace less and less useful over the years because with hidden visibility I get a lot of "???" for non-exported methods. gdb works much better. - David Faure On Dec. 10, 2015, 10:10 p.m., René J.V.
