Android - print full exception backtrace to log

try {
    // code that might throw an exception
} catch (Exception e) {
    Log.e("MYAPP", "exception", e);
}

(Since this is the oldest question about this.)

The three-argument Android log methods will print the stack trace for an Exception that is provided as the third parameter. For example

Log.d(String tag, String msg, Throwable tr)

where tr is the Exception.

According to this comment those Log methods “use the getStackTraceString() method … behind the scenes” to do that.
