<hr><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
Often an application needs to be terminated when a fatal error occurs (whether or not CWDEBUG
is defined). Libcwd defines for these cases the macro DoutFatal.
This allows you to write
\code
if (error)
DoutFatal(dc::core|error_cf, "An error occurred");
\endcode
instead of the equivalent
\code
if (error)
{
Dout(dc::core|error_cf, "An error occurred");
std::cerr << "An error occurred" << std::endl;
exit(254);
}
\endcode
The big difference with Dout is that DoutFatal is not replaced with white space when
the macro CWDEBUG is not defined.
There are two %debug %channels that can be used together with DoutFatal:
\link libcwd::channels::dc::fatal dc::fatal \endlink and
\link libcwd::channels::dc::core dc::core \endlink.
The first terminates by calling <CODE>exit(254)</CODE>,
the second terminates by raising SIGABORT, causing the application to core dump.
