You can build a dSYM for any linked image. The only thing you can't build it for is object and archive files. Whether to do it or not is just a tradeoff between build time & preserving debug information long term.
Thanks … but I’m not getting any insight from that. How about some specific questions, if I may:If I build a static library (.a file) that another developer will link into their app, do I need to provide a dSYM file too, or does the library already include all the debug info?
What about a framework (with a dylib), again to be used in another developer’s app? Is there any use for a dSYM file with that? (And if so where does it go? Inside the .framework somewhere?)
I think I’m generally unclear about what uses dSYM files. Just LLDB? And how does it find them?
