    In Dev build I have lib_burst_generated.pdb along with lib_burst_generated.dll in Plugins directory but in Release build it's not there (it's not in Library\PlayerDataCache\Win64\Data\Plugins\ either). I have "Copy PDB files" checked in Build Settings and there are .pdb files for other DLLs. How can I get symbols for Burst code in release build? I have Unity 2019.3.0f5, Burst 1.2.0 (not preview).

    Currently, you need to check "Development Build" to get PDBs, they are not generated otherwise (it's not a Burst issue but the way existing PDB for assemblies are generated)

    We will introduce a future version of Burst a new player settings to have Burst PDBs/debug symbols generated without having necessarily a development build.

    Hi, was this work ever done? We're hoping to get an easier route to debugging in our playtests without building with the full development mode.

    Hi,

    We added a setting a while back to allow you to force debug information to be generated in builds (Force Debug Information) : This should do exactly what you are requesting.
