* TO BE REVIEWED.doshimun@gmail.com2008-03-111-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Have sent an email for code review already but this check-in is urgent to fix potential build breaks. It contains the following changes: - Change project settings for exception_handler.vcproj so that it links in crash_generation.lib so that the applications using exception_handler.lib do not have to link to crash_generation.lib. Make these changes for all 4 build configurations. - Change the test app project settings to not link to crash_generation.lib and only link to exception_handler.lib; again for all four configurations. These changes help the applications that are currently linking to exception_handler.lib in that they don't have to link to one more lib to get out-of-process dump generation functionality. In fact, even if they do not use out-of-process dump generation functionality, after those changes, the apps will need to link with crash_generation.lib anyway in order to build correctly. This change will eliminate that need. git-svn-id: http://google-breakpad.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@248 4c0a9323-5329-0410-9bdc-e9ce6186880e

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | solution and project files that I added in my last check-in for out-of-process dump generation. My last check-in broke the breakpad_client.sln build for non debug builds since for the new project that I added (crash_generation.vcproj) to that solution, I always only changed project properties for debug build. In fact, I didn't have the static-crt build configurations for the new project either. Similar problems existed for the test application I added, windows/test/crash_generation_app). This changelist contains changes to 2 solution files, 2 vcproj files and 1 .cc file. The fixes to .cc file are to avoid warnings on variables used only in debug modes (in asserts) when building in release modes. git-svn-id: http://google-breakpad.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@247 4c0a9323-5329-0410-9bdc-e9ce6186880e
* Overview:doshimun@gmail.com2008-03-0812-0/+1228
Implement out-of-process dump generation for Windows platform. Details: - Created a lib, crash_generation.lib, that implements the out-of-process dump generation protocol. - The lib code is under client/windows/crash_generation folder and is organized in the following way: - CrashGenerationServer class (crash_generation_server.h/.cc) implements the server side of the protocol. - CrashGenerationClient class (crash_generation_client.h/.cc) implements the client side of the protocol. - MinidumpGenerator class (minidump_generator.h/.cc) serves as an abstractino for generating dump files using Windows APIs, coming up with new file names by creating GUIDs, etc. - ProtocolMessage class (ipc_protocol.h) represents the message format between the client and server for pipe IPC. - Server allows one client at a time on the pipe in the current implementation. - ReadMe.txt explains the state machine the server uses to serve clients. - ExceptionHandler is modified and a new constructor is added that allows specifying the pipe name. If the pipe name is NULL, the behavior is backward compatible - in-process dump generation is done as before. If the pipe name is specified, out-of-process dump generation registration is attempted. If that fails, the behavior is again backward compatible. - If out-of-process registration succeeds, all write dump requests, direct or indirect, are directed to crash server process that served the registration request. NOTE that the explicit dump requests made by calling the static method of ExceptionHandler are not directed to theserver. - client/windows/tests/crash_generation_app implements a simple Win32 GUI application to help test the out-of-process dump generation client and server. Typical use of the app is to start one instance, click Server --> Start and then start the other instance. The other instance will register with the first instance automatically at start-up. Then the second instance can be used to request various typoes of dump requests by using options under the Client menu. git-svn-id: http://google-breakpad.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@244 4c0a9323-5329-0410-9bdc-e9ce6186880e
