使用Easytracker进行谷歌分析时未捕获的异常

Question

I am using just this in every Activity:

@Override
public void onStart() {
    super.onStart();
    EasyTracker.getInstance().activityStart(this);
}

@Override
public void onStop() {
    super.onStop();
    EasyTracker.getInstance().activityStop(this);
}

and going through this doc

I found out:

Using EasyTracker
To automatically track all uncaught exceptions in your app using EasyTracker, add this line to your analytics.xml file:

<bool name="ga_reportUncaughtExceptions">true</bool>

After tracking an exception using automatic exception tracking, EasyTracker will pass the exception on to the Thread's default exception handler.

When using automatic exception tracking, keep in mind the following:

1. All exceptions tracked via automatic exception tracking are reported as fatal in Google Analytics.
2. The description field is automatically populated using the stack trace.

But when i get an UncaughtException and the application crashes, in the Google Analytics description, it just shows:

An error occured while executing doInBackground()

not the Stack Trace as mentioned in the above points. Any thing needs to be added??

Thank You

Answer 1

I use an open source tool called ACRA for uncaught exception reporting. It provides significantly more information than Google Analytics or Flurry do, and submits reports to a Google Doc, to which you can get email notification for every report added.

I use Google Analytics for the rest.

You should use a custom exception parser to get the whole stacktrace

import org.apache.commons.lang3.exception.ExceptionUtils;
import com.google.analytics.tracking.android.ExceptionParser;

public class AnalyticsExceptionParser implements ExceptionParser {

public String getDescription(String p_thread, Throwable p_throwable) {
    return "Thread: " + p_thread + ", Exception: " +     ExceptionUtils.getStackTrace(p_throwable);
}
}

and set this as default in you activity, like

public void setupGoogleAnalyticsCrashReportParser() {

    EasyTracker.getInstance().setContext(this);

    Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler uncaughtExceptionHandler = Thread.getDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler();
    if (uncaughtExceptionHandler instanceof ExceptionReporter) {
        ExceptionReporter exceptionReporter = (ExceptionReporter) uncaughtExceptionHandler;
        exceptionReporter.setExceptionParser(new AnalyticsExceptionParser());
    }
}

Hope this helps to someone.
