704161 - [adbe 3052835] Get symbols for Android Flash

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(External Software Affecting Firefox Graveyard :: Flash (Adobe), defect)

Description

[Robert Kaiser]

As we are working on Flash support for Android now, esp. in the new native UI but even in Aurora 10, we should get symbols there as well so we can analyze those crashes better.

Jet, is Flash for Android provided by Adobe, do you know that? If so, I guess we should contact them for the symbols.

Right now, we only support Android 2.3 with that, AFAIK, but Honeycomb and Ice Cream Sandwich should follow. I can't tell versions of the Flash crashes we are currently seeing as Linux doesn't deliver those, but I probably could find out some debug identifiers if needed.

Setting to P1 as this would be a blocker to handle Adobe Flash crashes.

i've put in an enhancement request to get guidance here.  we are tracking internally in #3052835.

I believe the discussions have already taken place on this matter.  With the android platform in question, extending source code licenses have been suspended.  Kev Needham would have more details.  Thanks.

I'm closing a lot of bugs which are filed as Adobe Flash bugs which are either irrelevant, not actionable, or not serious enough to track in the Mozilla bug tracker. For the most part, Flash bugs should be filed in Adobe bugbase, and we'll only track a few highly-critical issues in the Mozilla tracker.
