		CrashTrap
		---------
		
WHAT IT IS:
		
This is a demo of the ObjectError class.  This class can help in debugging an app by reporting on crashes.  When enabled, this class catches terminating signals (ie seg faults, bus errors) and fatal Objective-C runtime errors and writes a backtrace out to the console.  It can also be set to continue after a crash by jumping back into the main event loop.  This can give users the opportunity to save their work.

OjectError was written by a number of people - see the .h for the list. 


HOW TO USE IT:

To use ObjectError in your own apps, add the following line(s) in the _main.m file for your project:

	[ObjectError setup];
	[ObjectError setMuddleOn:YES];  // optional.
	
right before the line:

	[Application new];

Don't forget to turn off the "Generate Main File On Save" in ProjectBuilder (under Attributes.)
