title: Creating a minidump in a Python application (Windows)
body: <p>I'm working on a Python application. Sometimes the interpreter crashes when in a third party C++ DLL.</p>
  
  <p>I'm thinking about writing a Python extension that installs a handler for unhandled structured exceptions (Windows) in order to write a minidump to the disk and log the stack trace of every Python thread.</p>
  
  <p>Two questions:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Does a Python extension with a similar purpose already exist? According to my own Google search, nothing seems to be publicly available, but maybe I didn't search enough.</p></li>
  <li><p>Is it feasible to implement something like this? (I'm experienced in C++ and Windows programming, but have never implemented a Python extension...)</p></li>
  </ol>
