Symbols not strip from native packages
-
Hi
I have a feed where "Strip symbol files from packages downloaded from this feed" are enabled
I have publish a native C++ package to this feed, and when install with Visual Studio 2015 in my project the package still contains the symbols.
dir packages\samplelib.v140.1.0.0-alpha0\build\native\bin\Win32\Debug 04/26/2016 10:45 PM 49,152 SampleLib.dll 04/26/2016 10:45 PM 823,296 SampleLib.pdb
For .NET packages the symbols are strip correctly
Product: ProGet
Version: 4.0.10

This is by design; symbols work quite weirdly for native packages, and don't follow consistent conventions like .NET packages. So, we can't arbitrarily strip all .pdb files (we only remove them from the /lib path).
In this case, we suggest to make a separate symbols feed.
