[swift-users] stack trace of Swift executable

[Josh Parmenter]

Thanks for articulating this. It is something I have also found somewhat frustrating.

Is there anything that could be done to make swift stack traces more informative? Obj-C traces were very clear. I’d love to get back to that level again.
Best,
Josh

I have a simple main.swift that looks like this:

```
print("Hello, world!")
let x: String? = nil

func say(message: String?) {
    print(x!) // intentional crash
}

say(message: x)
```

Running this results in the crash

```
$ swift build && ./.build/debug/hello
Hello, world!

```

From the crash, how do I map back line 6 to an actual line in main.swift?
