Just migrated my UWP app to Sentry from AppCenter but the release build is crashing on startup. Debug build runs fine

.NET Version

UWP

OS

Windows

SDK Version

4.2.1

Self-Hosted Sentry Version

No response

Steps to Reproduce

1. Get ambie white noise's code: https://github.com/jenius-apps/ambie
2. Edit appsettings.resw > TelemetryApiKey. Add your sentry DSN in that field
3. Deploy debug build. Observe it runs fine
4. But release build crashes

Expected Result

No crashes on startup

Actual Result

Crashes on startup

Usually when I see crashes that occur in release build but not in debug build, it's because a dependency package doesn't work well with trimming.

Does the sentry .NET sdk support trimming or not?

[dpaulino]

I can confirm that the issue is that the SDK doesn't fully support trimming.

for context (and suggested rd.xml rules):

@dpaulino I reached out to @lucas-zimerman who has worked on our UWP support before.
Also @vaind perhaps might know about this since he develops on Windows

@dpaulino with the rd.xml rules you added, did it work out? Or have you had further challenges?

[dpaulino]

I'm unblocked but it's not ideal. I want to maximize performance using trimming. AppCenter didn't have issues like this, so I was hoping Sentry would be the same.
