Disable OSX crash report window

I have a python application that uses a compiled shared library. This library for some reason crashes with segfault every time the application throws an exception. OSX somehow catches segfault and displays a report failure window. How can I turn off this window once and for all?

You can disable the fault reporter globally, but I don't think there is a way to disable it locally. There are details on this website: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20091230100541242 . Basically, you can use / Developer / Applications / Utilities / CrashReporterPrefs if you have Xcode installed. Otherwise, you can use the command line

defaults write com.apple.CrashReporter DialogType server

To completely disable it.
