Ideally, your release build would still have generation of debug information turned on and it would be collected into a .dSYM bundle before being stripped. You would keep that .dSYM bundle on your system (doesn't really matter where). Then, you could use the "atos" tool or the debugger to query the symbol. With atos, you'd use the -o option to provide the path to the release build of your plug-in (the same build the customer is using). You'd use the -l option to provide the load address or your plug-in, which is listed in the Binary Images section of the crash dump. If you don't have the .dSYM bundle from the actual release the customer is using, you can try building the same code with the same tools and the same options and build settings, except enabling debugging info. If none of the above is possible, you may just have to read the assembly to understand the path from the routine start to the crash point and how that corresponds to your code. You might want to get the assembly from each of lldb and "otool -tV", as each may provide symbolication that the other doesn't. Hopefully, nearby references to selectors or strings will help you figure out which line of code the crash occurred on.
