12 This class presents the debug report to the user and allows him to veto
13 report entirely or remove some parts of it. Although not mandatory, using
14 this class is strongly recommended as data included in the debug report
15 might contain sensitive private information and the user should be notified
16 about it as well as having a possibility to examine the data which had been
17 gathered to check whether this is effectively the case and discard the
18 debug report if it is.
19
20 wxDebugReportPreview is an abstract base class, currently the only concrete
21 class deriving from it is wxDebugReportPreviewStd.

80 @class wxDebugReport
81
82 wxDebugReport is used to generate a debug report, containing information
83 about the program current state. It is usually used from
84 wxApp::OnFatalException() as shown in the @ref page_samples_debugrpt.
85
86 A wxDebugReport object contains one or more files. A few of them can be
87 created by the class itself but more can be created from the outside and
88 then added to the report. Also note that several virtual functions may be
89 overridden to further customize the class behaviour.
90
91 Once a report is fully assembled, it can simply be left in the temporary
92 directory so that the user can email it to the developers (in which case
93 you should still use wxDebugReportCompress to compress it in a single file)
94 or uploaded to a Web server using wxDebugReportUpload (setting up the Web
95 server to accept uploads is your responsibility, of course). Other
96 handlers, for example for automatically emailing the report, can be defined
97 as well but are not currently included in wxWidgets.
98
99 A typical usage example:
100
101 @code
102 wxDebugReport report;
103 wxDebugReportPreviewStd preview;
104
105 report.AddCurrentContext(); // could also use AddAll()
106 report.AddCurrentDump(); // to do both at once
107
108 if ( preview.Show(report) )
109 report.Process();
