crash-dumps

Hi,

For my work, I need to create a service that will detect an abnormal program termination and, instead of displaying a message to the user (default behavior), send the generated core dump to a remote server.

I'm pretty sure this can be done, but I have absolutely no clue on where to start. Is there any API/registry settings for this ?

Thank you.
