Analyzing native crash dumps

Every developer has one day experienced an unexpected crash in its application. Do not be ashamed, it has happened to all of us. And as a newcomer in Android native development, this situation will happen again, many times. Debuggers are a tremendous tool to look for problems in your code. Sadly, however they work in "real-time", when a program runs. They become sterile with fatal bugs that cannot be reproduced easily. Hopefully, there is a tool for that: NDK-Stack. NDK-Stack helps you read a crash dump to analyze an application's stack-trace at the moment it crashed.

Note

The resulting project is provided with this book under the name Store_Crash.
