# backtrace-on-stack-overflow

By default, Rust aborts on stackoverflow without printing a backtrace:

```console
λ bat src/main.rs
fn main() {
f(92)
}

fn f(x: u64) {
f(x)
}
λ cargo run
Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.00s
Running `target/debug/so`

thread 'main' has overflowed its stack
fatal runtime error: stack overflow
fish: Job 1, 'cargo run' terminated by signal SIGABRT (Abort)
```

This crate fixes this:

```console
λ bat src/main.rs
fn main() {
unsafe { backtrace_on_stack_overflow::enable() };
f(92)
}

fn f(x: u64) {
f(x)
}
λ cargo run
Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.01s
Running `target/debug/so`

This crate works for debugging, but is unsuited for being enabled in production.
