My iOS application crashed. I would like to read the crash log with the dSYM file. How is it possible?
First of all, you need three files: the dSYM file, the application file and the crash log.
Open the X Code, in the project navigator reveal the Products folder, and "Show in finder" the app file. Here you will find the dSYM file too. Copy them to a folder.
Now open the terminal, and navigate to the folder you copied previously the two files. Run: dwarfdump --uuid Application_name.app/Application_name
You should receive the application's UUID.
Run the following command: dwarfdump --uuid Application_name.app.dSYM - you will receive the UUID again, which should match the previously received UUID.
Open the crash log (X Code - Organizer - crashes), and find the line where appears the "Binary images" title. Here is another UUID in the first line, which should match again with the previously received in the terminal.
Now, you are assured the crash was logged in the build you are examining, so open again the crash log file, find the Thread 0 section, and there should be two lines with your application name and two addresses. Such as:
Application_name 0x123456
Application_name 0x987654
In the terminal you should run now: atos -arch armv7 -o address1 address2 (the address1 and address2 should be replaced with the previous two addresses, and the armv7 with your system's - it is shown at the lines, where you got the UUIDs).
Happy debugging!
EDIT: I would like to mention this post as base of mine.
