I'm developing an application, MainProject, that has an embedded framework, EmbeddedFramework (also developed by my team), and I'm incorporating Firebase Crashlytics in order to get crash reports.
The crash reporting is working just fine in the base application, I'm getting deofuscated reports that point to the exact line where the crash happened.
In the other hand, the crash reporting fails when a crash occurs inside of the embedded
framework. When that happens, all I get is a <compiler generated> or a <specialized> line of code, making it really hard to identify and/or debug.
For example, for this instance of a crash report in Firebase:

The report points to the function clickLogin(sender:) in the class EntryViewController, but I know for a fact that the crash is happening in the Authentication method in the EmbeddedFramework (aka, the line 0 of the crash trace), because I'm causing it for test purposes. However, the exact place and motive of the crash is obscured and hidden away.
Why does this happen? Is it possible to make Firebase to recognize the crashes happening inside a embedded framework and point to the correct line?
Thanks a lot in advance.
