appendAppNotesToCrashReport()
Append some data to the "Notes" field, to be submitted with a crash report. Unlike annotateCrashReport(), this method will append to existing data.
void appendAppNotesToCrashReport( in ACString data );
Parameters
data- Data to be added.
Exceptions thrown
NS_ERROR_INVALID_ARG- If data contains invalid characters. The only invalid character is '\0'.
NS_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED- If crash reporting not initialized.

appendObjCExceptionInfoToAppNotes
Append note containing an Obj-C exception's info.
void appendObjCExceptionInfoToAppNotes( in voidPtr aException );
Parameters
aException- NSException object to append note for.
Native code only!
writeMinidumpForException
Write a minidump immediately, with the user-supplied exception information. This is implemented on Windows only, because SEH (structured exception handling) exists on Windows only.
void writeMinidumpForException( in voidPtr aExceptionInfo );
Parameters
aExceptionInfo- EXCEPTION_INFO* provided by Window's SEH.
