Detailed Description

This class handles segmentation-faults. By default it displays a message-box saying the application crashed. This default can be overridden by setting a custom crash handler with setCrashHandler(). If a function is specified with setEmergencySaveFunction() it will be called by the default crash handler, giving the application a chance to save its data.
