capturing crash

[cs]

How can I capture the events leading to my windows application crashing?
would a big try catch around the Application.Run () do the job? in my head
that launches a thread and if that thread crashes somehow my try catch wont
do crap, maybe im wrong.
So what do you guys do to capture a possible application crash?

Re: capturing crash

It won't catch your unhandled exceptions. But you can do something like
this:


MyExceptionHand ler handler = new MyExceptionHand ler();

Application.Thr eadException += new ThreadException EventHandler(ha ndler
..Application_U nhandledExcepti on);

Application.Run ( new Form1());

And in MyExceptionHand ler just create a method with this signature:
public void Application_Unh andledException (object sender,
ThreadException EventArgs e)


HTH,
/m

RE: capturing crash

If you have a VisualStudio IDE then a simple way is

Attach the VisualStudio debugger to your application. And after that select
Debug->Exceptions (Ctrl+Alt+E). Then you can
select from a range of exceptions that you would want the debugger to
track. And every time an exception is thrown and if it is the type you are
interested then the debbuger will break at the point where the exception is
being thrown. If you are not sure about what exception to capture you can
"check" the top level "Common Language Runtime Exceptions" and your
debugger will break for all the exceptions that are encountered.

Re: capturing crash

thanks but I actually wanted to capture these exceptions on product rather
than on development.
