Defined in header <stacktrace>
template< class Allocator >
class basic_stacktrace;
(1) (since C++23)
using stacktrace =
    std::basic_stacktrace<std::allocator<std::stacktrace_entry>>;
(2) (since C++23)
namespace pmr {

using stacktrace =
    std::basic_stacktrace<std::pmr::polymorphic_allocator<std::stacktrace_entry>>;

}
(3) (since C++23)
1) The basic_stacktrace class template represents a snapshot of the whole stacktrace or its given part. It satisfies the requirement of AllocatorAwareContainer, SequenceContainer, and ReversibleContainer, except that only move, assignment, swap, and operations for const-qualified sequence containers are supported, and the semantics of comparison functions are different from those required for a container.
2) Convenience type alias for the basic_stacktrace using the default std::allocator.
3) Convenience type alias for the basic_stacktrace using the polymorphic allocator.

The invocation sequence of the current evaluation x0 in the current thread of execution is a sequence (x0, ..., xn) of evaluations such that, for i≥0, xi is within the function invocation xi+1.

A stacktrace is an approximate representation of an invocation sequence and consists of stacktrace entries.

A stacktrace entry represents an evaluation in a stacktrace. It is represented by std::stacktrace_entry in the C++ standard library.

Contents

Template parameters

Allocator - An allocator that is used to acquire/release memory and to construct/destroy the elements in that memory. The type must meet the requirements of Allocator. The program is ill-formed if Allocator::value_type is not std::stacktrace_entry.

Member types

Member type Definition
value_type (C++23) std::stacktrace_entry
const_reference (C++23) const value_type&
reference (C++23) value_type&
const_iterator (C++23) implementation-defined const LegacyRandomAccessIterator type that models random_access_iterator
iterator (C++23) const_iterator
reverse_iterator (C++23) std::reverse_iterator<iterator>
reverse_const_iterator (C++23) std::reverse_iterator<const_iterator>
difference_type (C++23) implementation-defined signed integer type
size_type (C++23) implementation-defined unsigned integer type

Notes

Support for custom allocators is provided for using basic_stacktrace on a hot path or in embedded environments. Users can allocate stacktrace_entry objects on the stack or in some other place, where appropriate.

The sequence of std::stacktrace_entry objects owned by a std::basic_stacktrace is immutable, and either is empty or represents a contiguous interval of the whole stacktrace.

boost::stacktrace::basic_stacktrace (available in Boost.Stacktrace) can be used instead when std::basic_stacktrace is not available.

Feature-test macro Value Std Feature
__cpp_lib_stacktrace 202011L (C++23) Stacktrace library
__cpp_lib_formatters 202302L (C++23) Formatting std::thread::id and std::stacktrace

Example

The output obtained using Compiler Explorer: msvc and gcc.

#include <iostream>
#include <stacktrace>
 
int nested_func(int c)
{
    std::cout << std::stacktrace::current() << '\n';
    return c + 1;
}
 
int func(int b)
{
    return nested_func(b + 1);
}
 
int main()
{
    std::cout << func(777);
}

Possible output:

msvc output:
