+
+-- Run-time non-symbolic traceback support
+
+-- This package provides a method for generating a traceback of the
+-- current execution location. The traceback shows the locations of
+-- calls in the call chain, up to either the top or a designated
+-- number of levels.
+
+-- The traceback information is in the form of absolute code locations.
+-- These code locations may be converted to corresponding source locations
+-- using the external addr2line utility, or from within GDB.
+
+-- In order to use this facility, in some cases the binder must be invoked
+-- with -E switch (store the backtrace with exception occurrence). Please
+-- refer to gnatbind documentation for more information.
+
+-- To analyze the code locations later using addr2line or gdb, the necessary
+-- units must be compiled with the debugging switch -g in the usual manner.
+-- Note that it is not necessary to compile with -g to use Call_Chain. In
+-- other words, the following sequence of steps can be used:
+
+-- Compile without -g
+-- Run the program, and call Call_Chain
+-- Recompile with -g
+-- Use addr2line to interpret the absolute call locations (note that
+-- addr2line expects addresses in hexadecimal format).
+
+-- This capability is currently supported on the following targets:
+
+-- AiX PowerPC
+-- HP-UX
+-- GNU/Linux x86
+-- LynxOS x86
+-- Solaris x86
+-- Solaris sparc
+-- OpenVMS/Alpha
+-- OpenVMS/ia64
+-- VxWorks PowerPC
+-- VxWorks x86
+-- Windows NT/XP
+
+-- Note: see also GNAT.Traceback.Symbolic, a child unit in file g-trasym.ads
+-- providing symbolic trace back capability for a subset of the above targets.
