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

117 @class wxDebugReport
118
119 wxDebugReport is used to generate a debug report, containing information
120 about the program current state. It is usually used from
121 wxApp::OnFatalException() as shown in the @ref page_samples_debugrpt.
122
123 A wxDebugReport object contains one or more files. A few of them can be
124 created by the class itself but more can be created from the outside and
125 then added to the report. Also note that several virtual functions may be
126 overridden to further customize the class behaviour.
127
128 Once a report is fully assembled, it can simply be left in the temporary
129 directory so that the user can email it to the developers (in which case
130 you should still use wxDebugReportCompress to compress it in a single file)
131 or uploaded to a Web server using wxDebugReportUpload (setting up the Web
132 server to accept uploads is your responsibility, of course). Other
133 handlers, for example for automatically emailing the report, can be defined
134 as well but are not currently included in wxWidgets.
135
136 A typical usage example:
137
138 @code
139 wxDebugReport report;
140 wxDebugReportPreviewStd preview;
141
142 report.AddCurrentContext(); // could also use AddAll()
143 report.AddCurrentDump(); // to do both at once
144
145 if ( preview.Show(report) )
146 report.Process();
