Crashes.trackError always shows MSACExceptionModel.initWithError: as the exception about appcenter-sdk-apple

[daleswift]

Steps to reproduce:

• Create any iOS project and call Crashes.trackError
• Check the results in AppCenter
• The error is listed as originating in MSACExceptionModel.initWithError rather than from the actual calling code (in my example it should be ViewController.sendErrorButtonTapped)

I'm attaching a sample project. You need to replace line 16 in AppDelegate.swift
static let appCenterSecret = "your app secret here"
with a valid AppCenter secret.

Run the app and tap Send Error several times

You can implement it in this way. In the screenshot you can see how the data in the stack trace is displayed on the portal.

    let model = ExceptionModel(withType: "MyExceptionType", exceptionMessage: "ExceptionCustomMessage", stackTrace: ["firstline fileName1 address1 className1 methodName1 somedata", "secondline fileName2 address2 className2 methodName2 somedata", "thirdline fileName2 address2 className2 methodName2 somedata"])!
    Crashes.trackException(model, properties: nil, attachments: nil)

Hi @daleswift and thanks for reaching out to us, could you please provide us with the steps to reproduce your error?

[MikhailSuendukov]

I apologize for the delay, the fact is that if the stack trace generation format does not suit you, then it is possible to send your MCAExceptionModel with a defined stack trace. Therefore, your workaround is an architecturally expected solution. I will close this issue but if you have any additional questions feel free to reopen it.

Describe alternatives you've considered As a workaround, I am capturing a call stack myself and prepending a surrogate frame to include the actual failing method, then using the constructor ExceptionModel(withType:exceptionMessage:stacktrace)

@daleswift Could you share a code example how do you creating ExceptionModel?
I mean what you exactly you are putting in withType, exceptionMessage, stacktrace params?
