Summary

Sentry is introducing several key features to its native crash reporting system, including support for symbol servers, native handling of PDBs, and a full SDK for C and C++. Symbol servers provide convenient integration with debuggers, allowing Sentry to automatically download debug information as needed. The new feature also simplifies uploads by eliminating the need to convert or upload PDBs, resolving inline function calls, and cleaning up stack trace views. Additionally, Sentry is releasing its native SDK, called Sentrypad, which provides a high-level SDK experience with a familiar face, easy integration, and a convenient C API for configuring the SDK. The new features aim to enhance the overall crash reporting experience at Sentry, making it more accessible and user-friendly for developers working on native applications.
