APPARATUS AND METHOD TO GENERATE AND COLLECT DIAGNOSTIC DATA
First Claim
1. A method to generate and save diagnostic data in the event of an application error, comprising:
- supplying a first computing device comprising a first microprocessor and a first computer readable medium and an application encoded in said first computer readable medium, wherein said application comprises an error handling module;
supplying a second computing device comprising a second microprocessor and a second computer readable medium and an error data management module encoded in said second computer readable medium, wherein said error data management module comprises a diagnostic data generating module, wherein said first computing device is in communication with said second computing device;
executing said application;
detecting by said error handling module an application error;
detecting by said error data management module said application error;
receiving by said error handling module a completion signal from said error data management module;
providing an error signal by said error handling module.

Abstract
A method to generate and save diagnostic data in the event of an application error, wherein the method supplies a first computing device comprising a microprocessor and a first computer readable medium and an application encoded in said computer readable medium, wherein said application comprises an error handling module. The method further supplies a second computing device comprising a microprocessor and a second computer readable medium and an error data management module encoded in said second computer readable medium, wherein said error data management module comprises a diagnostic data generating module, wherein said first computing device is in communication with said second computing device. The method executes the application, detects by the error handling module an application error, and detects by the error data management module the application error. The method then receives by the error handling module a completion signal from the error data management module, and provides an error signal from the error handling module to a support center.
