RE: [GD-Windows] Finding routine that's crashing

[Andrew G. <ag...@cl...>]

There's a 3rd party program, Bugtrapper which does this. You run the
bugtrapper agent on the machine in question and if a crash happens it =
logs a
complete call stack with variables and so on.

I seem to remember it's fairly pricey =A32-3k but we found it priceless =
during
beta, no more "I clicked on this dude and it crashed" bug reports from =
QA :)
