Answer 1

Use the google glog library for it. It has new BSD licence.

It contains a GetStackTrace function in the stacktrace.h file.

I found here http://blog.bigpixel.ro/2010/09/09/stack-unwinding-stack-trace-with-gcc/ that there is an utility called addr2line that translates program addresses into file names and line numbers.
