How do I get ruby to print a full backtrace instead of a truncated one?

Question

When I get exceptions, it is often from deep within the call stack. When this happens, more often than not, the actual offending line of code is hidden from me:

Answer 1

Exception#backtrace has the entire stack in it:

def do_division_by_zero; 5 / 0; end
begin
  do_division_by_zero
rescue => exception
  puts exception.backtrace
  raise # always reraise
end
