CrashDump library #11

Open joaquimvila opened 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. For troubleshooting purposes, it is often necessary to have a dump file of crash produced on the field.

Describe the solution you'd like Have a shared library that makes very easy the creation of crash dumps.

Describe alternatives you've considered On ALBA & SNOW, crash dumps are generated using a 3rd party software (CrashRpt). A wrapper on the services used on these libraries would be very useful.

Additional context Only for Windows applications.

Because of Cybersecurity obsolescence we evaluated different alternatives since CrashRPT is no longer mantained. There is a library under the chromium umbrella called Crashpad.

It even has a plugin for Visual Studio from the BackTrace company. Backtrace is a paid option for generating and troubleshooting crash dumps but I vs plugin is free.
