Subject: Generating Win32 stack traces
From: marshall@magpcss.com ("Marshall A. Greenblatt")

Hi guys,

Is there any way, on Win32 (NT-based) systems, to generate a stack trace for
a faulting PHP module loaded as part of Apache?  As a temporary measure I've
jury-rigged a combination of __try {}/__except() {} blocks and writing to
the system event log, but I'd really prefer something less code-invasive and
more along the lines of unix/linux stack trace support, which can show
function calls and line numbers.  Does any such tool or capability exist?

Thanks,
  Marshall
