Turn off xbmc_crashlog - Djape - 2009-10-01

Hello there,

couldn't find related topic so I must ask for help.

As I use xbmc a lot and my PC is pretty old it often crashes.
I have noticed that my home directory is full of xbmc_crashlog files.

If this continues with this tempo in few months my usb stick will be full.

I know that I could manually delete those files, but is there a option to turn off
xbmc_crashlog?

Thx in advance...

This is by design. The goal was to get you to report the problems.

For windows, we do one dmp file per revision.

You could easily setup a cronjob to do this every few days.

Write up a little bash script to rm ~/xbmc_crashlog* or whatever the filename base is.
Make it executable and throw a call to in in crontab.

I wanted to avoid this, but now...
