@header QCrashReport.h
@abstract High-level crash report object.
@discussion This module provides a high-level interface for creating and
recording crash report information. It encapsulates all of
the complexity of many lower-level modules, providing you with
a nice, clean interface for creating crash reports.
To create a create report object, just call QCRCreateFromTask or
QCRCreateFromSelf. Use QCRDestroy to destroy the resulting
object. Use QCRGetThreadCount and QCRGetThreadAtIndex to
iterate the threads of the crash report, and
QCRGetBacktraceAtIndex to interate the backtraces for those
threads. Call QCRGetSymbols and QCRGetImages to get at the
underlying symbols object and image objects. Finally,
QCRPrintBacktraces, QCRPrintThreadState and QCRPrintImages
provide a standard way to render crash reports to text.
This module assumes that the state of the process you're
investigating is stable. That is, when you create a crash report
object for a process, you need to guarantee that the state
of the process does not change while that object exists.
The best way to prevent this from happening is to suspend the
process while you're accessing it. You can automatically
suspend the task for the lifetime of the crash report object by
pass true to the suspend parameter of QCRCreateFromTask.
One special case of this applies to crash report objects that
target the current process (mach_task_self). In this case,
it's not feasible to suspend the task, a fact that makes for
some interesting challenges. This module copes with that
in two ways:
o When you get a backtrace for a thread, it implicitly gets
the thread's state. It then caches that state and the
associated backtrace. From that point on, you get
a consistent backtrace, although it may not be correlated
with the current state of the thread.
o An exception to this is for the current thread
(mach_thread_self). Unless you explicitly set its state
(using QCRSetThreadStateAtIndex), the act of calling
QCRGetBacktraceAtIndex causes the module to throw away
the cached backtrace for the thread and generate a new one
based on the thread's current state.
This has some interesting consequences on the life time of
certain memory blocks returned by the module. Specifically:
o thread state returned by QCRGetThreadStateAtIndex
o backtrace frames returned by QCRGetBacktraceAtIndex
In both cases, this memory persists until one of the following
happens:
- you destroy the crash report object
- you explicitly set the thread state using QCRSetThreadStateAtIndex
- it's associated with the current thread and you generate
a new backtrace for the thread by calling QCRGetBacktraceAtIndex
In addition, this module provides some helper routines for
launching a crash report tool (QCRExecuteCrashReportTool) and
for giving that tool access to the task control port for the
crashed task (QCRGetParentTask).

@param task Must be the name of a valid send right for the task control
port of the process to inspect; mach_task_self is just fine.
If you do pass in mach_task_self, this routine automatically
enables some nice optimisations.
@param suspend If true, the target task is suspended while the crash report
object exists.
Must not be true if task is mach_task_self.
@param crashedThread
The name of a valid send right for the thread control port of
the thread that crashed, or MACH_PORT_NULL if you don't have
this information handy. If you pass in MACH_PORT_NULL, you
can also set the crashed thread later by calling
QCRSetCrashedThreadIndex.
It is accepatble to pass mach_thread_self to this parameter,
but it may not do what you expect. See the discussion
above for details.
This value primarily affects the text rendering routines;
see the discussion in QCRSetCrashedThreadIndex for details.
@param cputype The CPU type for which you are creating a crash report.
Typically you would pass CPU_TYPE_ANY to use the CPU type of
the first dynamic linker that's discovered. See
QMOImageCreateFromTaskDyld for a detailed discussion of this
value.

@discussion Returns the state of the specified thread in the crash

(either explicitly, or implicitly by calling functions that
need the thread state), it takes a snapshot of the thread
state. By the time the function returns, this snapshot is
valid only if the thread (or the entire task) is suspend.
Also, the lifetime of this snapshot is controlled by a number
of factors; see the detailed discussion of this topic,

@param crRef A valid crash report object.

for this index returns mach_thread_self), you probably won't
get useful results. See the discussion above for details.

If NULL, this parameter is ignored. Otherwise,
on entry, the value of *threadStatePtr is ignored.

@function QCRSetThreadStateAtIndex
@abstract Set the thread state for the specified thread.
@discussion Sets the thread state of the specified thread within the
the crash report. This is useful if you have a better idea
of the thread's state than the default mechanism for getting
the thread state used by QCRGetThreadStateAtIndex (which gets
it by calling the Mach routine thread_get_state). For example,
if you're running in a signal handler, you can extract the
interrupted thread's state from the signal handlers parameters.
If you set a thread's state by calling this routine, it
persists for the lifetime of the crash report object (unless
you override it by calling this routine again).
The memory buffer specified by threadState and threadStateSize
is copied by this routine; you do not need to maintain it
once the routine has returned.
@param crRef A valid crash report object.

A zero-based index into the array of threads.
It is both acceptable and useful to specify the current
thread here (that is, pass in a value for which QCRGetThreadAtIndex
would return mach_thread_self).

(for example, x86_THREAD_STATE32).

acceptable.
@param threadStateSize
The size, in bytes, of the new thread state pointed to by
threadState (for example, sizeof(x86_thread_state32_t)). Due
to the nature of Mach thread states, this must not be zero and

@function QCRGetBacktraceAtIndex
@abstract Returns a backtrace for the specified thread.
@discussion Returns a backtrace for the specified thread. The first time
you call this function (except when specifying the current
thread, see below), it takes a snapshot of the thread's
backtrace. For each subsequent call, you get back the
same backtrace. This lifetime of this backtrace is
controlled by a number of factors; see the detailed
discussion of this topic, above.
This routine has a special case so that you can easily get a
meaningful backtrace for the current thread. If you specify
the current thread (that is, you pass in a value for which
QCRGetThreadAtIndex would return mach_thread_self) and you
have not explicitly set the thread state (by calling
QCRSetThreadStateByIndex), this routine will return a backtrace
for the current thread at the current time. This backtrace
will persist until you call this function again (or until any
of the other events that can clear the backtrace occurs; see
the detailed discussion above).
If you call this for anything except the current thread,
it implicitly snapshots the current thread state; this ensures
that the current thread state and the backtrace are in sync.
IMPORTANT: The lifetime of the array returned by this routine
is controlled by a number of factors. See the detailed
discussion of this topic, above.

IMPORTANT: This routine isn't thread safe. To do its work
it must switch the current task's bootstrap port, fork/exec
the tool, and then switch the port back. This can't be

toolStatusPtr must not be NULL.
If non-NULL, the tools runs asynchronously and the routine
