<h2>Enabling automatic crash logging</h2>
<p>To enable the automatic crash logging, go to Carbide.c++ preferences:</p>
<ol>
<li>Select <b>Window > Preferences... > Carbide Extensions > Crash Analyser.</b></li>
<li>Follow the steps in the workflow examples below.</li>
</ol>
<p></p>
<h4>Workflow example (Listen panics from epocwind.out)</h4>
<p>Before you start:</p>
<p>Ensure that you have checked the <b>Listen panics from epocwind.out</b> check box.</p>
<ol>
<li>Start debugging your project with an emulator</li>
<li>In the emulator, run something that creates a panic.</li>
</ol>
<p>Expected outcome:</p>
<p>Emulator panic file is displayed in the main view. When you select a file from the list, panic details and descriptions are displayed.</p>
<h4>Workflow example (Listen MobileCrash panics via TraceViewer)</h4>
<p>Before you start:</p>
<ul>
<li>Ensure that you have checked the <b>Listen MobileCrash panics via TraceViewer</b> check box. If you want that the Crash Visualiser is shown when a crash occurs, check also the <b>Show Crash Visualiser when crash occurs</b> check box.</li>
<li>Ensure that the TraceViewer view is visible in the Carbide.c++ view. If it is not visible, open it from Carbide.c++ menu: <b>Window > Show View > Other... > Carbide Extensions > TraceViewer.</b></li>
<li>Ensure that TraceViewer connection settings are OK, and the TraceViewer is able to connect to the device.</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li>Start tracing by clicking the <b>Connect to trace source</b> button in the <b>TraceViewer</b> view.</li>
<li>In the device, run something that creates a mobile crash.</li>
<li>Stop the TraceViewer.</li>
<li>Open the <b>Crash Analyser</b> view.
<p><i>Expected outcome</i> if the <b>Show Crash Visualiser when crash occurs</b> is not checked: The crash file generated in step 2 is visible in the Crash Analyser view. The undecoded file is now ready to be decoded with the <b>Decode selected files...</b> functionality.</p>
<p><i>Expected outcome</i> if the <b>Show Crash Visualiser when crash occurs</b> check box is checked: The crash file generated in step 2 is partially decoded and opened automatically to the Crash Visualiser.</p></li>
</ol>
