Error: Symbol Not Found Error
Stack:

error in SDK 8.3.0 in fr955, fr245 simulator when run as glance. Note the stack is also missing. The same code works in 8.2.3, 8.4.0 (and please don't tell me to use 8.4.0 before Garmin fixes all the related bugs)

    But I don't understand what you're asking for with this bug report?

    Do you want Garmin to release an update to 8.3.0? You know that they never update old SDKs after releasing a new one, so there won't be an 8.3.1 SDK (for example) that fixes this issue even if you really want one. The most I've seen them do is withdraw an SDK if it has a serious problem.

    Do you want Garmin to simply be aware of this bug? I mean, that's not a bad thing, but again, what do you expect them to do about it? Either they knew about it and fixed it, or they didn't know about it and somehow it was fixed anyway in 8.4.0. If it's the latter, I guess reporting this bug *might* help ensure that the bug doesn't come back. But then again, history shows that squashed bugs come back all the time anyway.
