Windows Application Creating Self-Dump

Codeproject has an article explaining how to make your application provide a self-dump if it crashes. I'd like to know what improvements, if any, have occurred to that technique (for Visual C++ 2008 and 2010). I'd also like to know if the associated library, Dbghelp.dll, has limitations a developer should know about before investing in its use.

If that whole approach has been superceded by some other technique, do tell. :)

I would recommend Sysinternals ProcDump where you can save the dump easily with an unhandled exception occurs.

Consider using crashrpt. Since its open source, and uses dbghelp.dll, you'll probabliy find relevant information in its source/doc.
