Backward ROS
For info about the backward-cpp project check https://github.com/bombela/backward-cpp
This wrapper should make it very easy to integrate backward_cpp into your ROS2 packages.
Integration of backward_ros
Add backward_ros to your package.xml <depend>backward_ros</depend>
Add backward_ros to your CMakeLists.txt find_package(backward_ros REQUIRED)
You’re done, it should automatically add a library to your executables, when they crash, they should print a nice stacktrace like this:

To get line numbers and more details, you need to build with debug information enabled (CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE = Debug or RelWithDebInfo)
