digitalmars.D.learn - How to get stack trace on Windows?

I'm not getting any of the function names on the stack traces.

I tried everything I found in here: 
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/digitalmars/D/Windows_Stack_Traces_Function_Names_136887.html

- I installed the "Debugging Tools for Windows" to update my dbghelp.dll

- I'm already compiling/linking in one step, and using -g (also tried -gc)

- I tried running the executable through cv2pdb.

None of it's working.

Last time I've seen stack trace it was due to this command:

dmd -debug -g ...

I was already using -debug and -g. No function names.

 dmd -debug -g ...






rebuild dmd/druntime/phobos from latest git, at least it's a setup I 
have right now it works (though I'm on Win7 x64).

BTW I haven't touched dbghelp in anyway(at least any that I know of) but 
I have something like 6 versions of them on harddrive, most "public" ones:
834Kb in C:\Windows\SysWOW64  ( this one should load for 32bit apps I think)
1.03Mb in C:\Windows\System32  (64bit obviously)

for others, I'll list only sizes:
747Kb
0.99Mb
1.27Mb
1.30Mb

Just tried that. Still no names :( Just the addresses as before.

This is what works for me:

module test;

void main()

	foo();

void foo()
{
    bar();
}

void bar()
{
    assert(0);

D:\dev\code\d_code\dtrace>dmd -g test.d

D:\dev\code\d_code\dtrace>cv2pdb test.exe

D:\dev\code\d_code\dtrace>test
core.exception.AssertError test(17): Assertion failure
----------------
D:\dev\code\d_code\dtrace\test.d(18): testbar
D:\dev\code\d_code\dtrace\test.d(13): testfoo
D:\dev\code\d_code\dtrace\test.d(7): D main
----------------


 D:\dev\code\d_code\dtrace>cv2pdb




So it's v0.19, if that matters.

Otherwise without cv2pdb I get only addresses.

I got the latest dbghelp.dll from here:

Hmm I guess I must have forgotten to re-try the cv2pdb trick after I updated 
dbghelp.dll. That works now. Thanks.

 dbghelp.dll. That works now. Thanks.



Any idea why this trick is needed? For me it works as is, just wondering...
