     30 // ExceptionHandler can write a minidump file when an exception occurs,
     31 // or when WriteMinidump() is called explicitly by your program.
     32 //
     33 // To have the exception handler write minidumps when an uncaught exception
     34 // (crash) occurs, you should create an instance early in the execution
     35 // of your program, and keep it around for the entire time you want to
     36 // have crash handling active (typically, until shutdown).
     37 //
     38 // If you want to write minidumps without installing the exception handler,
     39 // you can create an ExceptionHandler with install_handler set to false,
     40 // then call WriteMinidump.  You can also use this technique if you want to
     41 // use different minidump callbacks for different call sites.
     42 //
     43 // In either case, a callback function is called when a minidump is written,
     44 // which receives the unqiue id of the minidump.  The caller can use this
     45 // id to collect and write additional application state, and to launch an
     46 // external crash-reporting application.
     47 //
     48 // It is important that creation and destruction of ExceptionHandler objects
     49 // be nested cleanly, when using install_handler = true.
     50 // Avoid the following pattern:
     51 //   ExceptionHandler *e = new ExceptionHandler(...);
     52 //   ExceptionHandler *f = new ExceptionHandler(...);
     53 //   delete e;
     54 // This will put the exception filter stack into an inconsistent state.
