 First, configure your build process to link **libbreakpad\_client.a** into your

 Now you can instantiate an `ExceptionHandler` object. Exception handling is active for the lifetime of the `ExceptionHandler` object, so you should instantiate it as early as possible in your application's startup process, and keep it alive for as close to shutdown as possible. To do anything useful, the `ExceptionHandler` constructor requires a path where it can write minidumps, as well as a callback function to receive information about minidumps that were written:
-```
 
+```cpp
 static bool dumpCallback(const google_breakpad::MinidumpDescriptor& descriptor,
-void* context, bool succeeded) { printf("Dump path: %s\n", descriptor.path());
-return succeeded; }
+void* context, bool succeeded) {
+  printf("Dump path: %s\n", descriptor.path());
+  return succeeded;
+}
 
 void crash() { volatile int* a = (int*)(NULL); *a = 1; }
 
-int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { google_breakpad::MinidumpDescriptor
-descriptor("/tmp"); google_breakpad::ExceptionHandler eh(descriptor, NULL,
-dumpCallback, NULL, true, -1); crash(); return 0; } ```

 **Note**: You should do as little work as possible in the callback function.

 ## Producing symbols for your application
 
 To produce useful stack traces, Breakpad requires you to convert the debugging

-symbol files</a>. First, ensure that you've compiled your binaries with `-g` to

 include debugging symbols. Next, compile the `dump_syms` tool by running
 `configure && make` in the Breakpad source directory. Next, run `dump_syms` on
 your binaries to produce the text-format symbols. For example, if your main
-binary was named `test`: `$ google-breakpad/src/tools/linux/dump_syms/dump_syms
-./test > test.sym

+
+```
+$ google-breakpad/src/tools/linux/dump_syms/dump_syms ./test > test.sym
+```
 
 In order to use these symbols with the `minidump_stackwalk` tool, you will need
 to place them in a specific directory structure. The first line of the symbol
 file contains the information you need to produce this directory structure, for
