I have successfully set up QuicyKit and am testing it with QuincyDemo (compiled against 5.0 SDK). I can send, retrieve and symbolicate crash logs from my external server. All this works as expected ... sort of.

When I run QuincyDemo the following anomalous behaviour is observed:

- Device (iPhone4s iOS5.0, debugger off - untethered). The framework does reliably catch crashes and generate logs, but the user dialog box is not presented to the user. The app appears to quit, but is actually put into the background - at least it appears that way. Then when the demo app is restarted (becomes active) the dialog box appears after a slight delay. If the user selects Send Report, a crash log from the previous crash is sent.

- Simulator (5.0 and 4.3): the framework does not appear to reliably catch all crashes. At first it did exhibit the same behaviour as described above on the device. But at some point in testing I was unable to get it to do so at all.

Hmm, after writing all this up, I wonder if the above behaviour has something to do with the fact that I compiling against 5.0 SDK?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Martin
