Crash Manager

The Crash Manager is a service and interface for managing crash data within the Gecko application.

From JavaScript, the service can be accessed via:

Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/Services.jsm");
let crashManager = Services.crashmanager;

That will give you an instance of CrashManager from CrashManager.jsm. From there, you can access and manipulate crash data.

The crash manager stores statistical information about crashes as well as detailed information for both browser and content crashes. The crash manager automatically detects new browser crashes at startup by scanning for crash-events. Content process crash information on the other hand is provided externally.
