Couldn't this package be reused in any way on Android, WebAssembly or Windows?

tomerd commented 4 years ago

@MaxDesiatov right now the package only works on Linux. further, the goal in general would be to remove the need in such library and make sure you get backtraces oob.

what is the current state of backtraces on Android, WebAssembly or Windows?

Backtraces on Windows should work, as long as you building with debug info (without them, they aren't accurate as expected). Android backtraces kinda worked when I was working on that port.

+1 for renaming from me (if it means anything).

this was discussed in an SSWG meeting and we decided against naming it now given the fact many projects already depend on it
