20/// \brief Crash recovery helper object.
21///
22/// This class implements support for running operations in a safe context so
23/// that crashes (memory errors, stack overflow, assertion violations) can be
24/// detected and control restored to the crashing thread. Crash detection is
25/// purely "best effort", the exact set of failures which can be recovered from
26/// is platform dependent.
27///
28/// Clients make use of this code by first calling
29/// CrashRecoveryContext::Enable(), and then executing unsafe operations via a
30/// CrashRecoveryContext object. For example:
31///
32///    void actual_work(void *);
33///
34///    void foo() {
35///      CrashRecoveryContext CRC;
36///
37///      if (!CRC.RunSafely(actual_work, 0)) {
38///         ... a crash was detected, report error to user ...
39///      }
40///
41///      ... no crash was detected ...
42///    }
43///
44/// Crash recovery contexts may not be nested.
