In CW8.3 when I striped symbols, if my application crashed on a customer's
machine (Nah, that never happens ;-) ), the crash log/report would like the
functions that were called prior to the crash.


In Xcode both in Debug and Release variations, a crash log/report only shows
numeric addresses and not function names. This won't be too useful if a
customer has to send in a crash log.


What am I missing here? I wan minimal symbols so as to not aid in reverse
engineering, but I need o be able to get useful crash reports should the
need arise.




Keep the unstripped version of your app around and send the stripped version to your customers. When they send you a crash report, you can use the "atos" command on the unstripped version to get the symbol names back. That way you see the symbols and your customers don't.
