How can I convert a stack trace to a string?

Question

What is the easiest way to convert the result of Throwable.getStackTrace() to a string that depicts the stacktrace?

Answer 1

Guava's Throwables class

If you have the actual Throwable instance, Google Guava provides Throwables.getStackTraceAsString().

Example:

String s = Throwables.getStackTraceAsString ( myException ) ;
