Resymbolication in Xcode 6.1
- Get the crash report from Device via Xcode

- From the crash report get the version of the app.

- Get the IPA and dSYM file for the version from ios-ci.
- Put the following in a common folder (named lets say XYZ, which should not be in /tmp):
- The unsymbolicated crash report.
- The binary extracted from the IPA.
- The dSYM file for the related binary.
- On the terminal now, execute the following command:
DEVELOPER_DIR=`xcode-select -print-path` /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/DTDeviceKitBase.framework/Versions/A/Resources/symbolicatecrash -v -o resymbolicated.crash crashreport.crash Talkto.app.dSYM - This should symbolicate your crash report and export the unsymbolicated version to
resymbolicated.crash
Possible error case:
The whole file might not get symbolicated even with a successful run.The verbose output in that case should end with something like:
Running /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/atos -arch armv7 -l 0x91000 -o '/Users/ayushgoel/Downloads/11/Talkto' 0x001a3d44 0x0034f262 0x001188be 0x0031d23a 0x000978e2 Here symbolication of only 5 addresses has been tried. But in the crash report there are more addresses, which needed to be symbolicated. See code below.

This is because of the faulty parsing by the script.
To fix this convert:
Thread 5 Attributed: -> Thread 5:. And now run the script again to see the magic!
