Investigate crashes reported without metadata
Investigate possible sceanrios that can get crashes reported without metadata
Nov 14, 2016
Crashes in a process (electron and node both) where crash reporter is not initialized get reported with just the dump and no metadata in Mac. In Windows, such crashes are ignored.
In VS Code, we fork a new node process in many scenarios like extensionhost, search, git etc. When these processes crash, Mac ends up reporting the crash without any metadata.
VS Code uses the electron crash reporter to report crashes.
The crash reporter is initialized to send the below in each crash report
We have been noticing crash reports from Mac in huge numbers that have just the dump and none of the rest of the metadata outlined above.
This task is to track the scenarios where such a thing is possible
