Microsoft Store compliance failed due to gRPC

[abu...@vnetsoftware.com]

I have a Xamarin/UWP app that uses gRPC.  It includes the following nuget packages:

Grpc.Net.Client (2.42.0)
Grpc.Net.Client.Web (2.42.0)
Grpc.Tools (2.42.0)

When I submit the app to the Microsoft Store, I get the following failures:

API SymFromAddr in dbghelp.dll is not supported for this application type. grpc_csharp_ext.x64.dll calls this API.
API SymInitialize in dbghelp.dll is not supported for this application type. grpc_csharp_ext.x64.dll calls this API.
API SymSetOptions in dbghelp.dll is not supported for this application type. grpc_csharp_ext.x64.dll calls this API.

Any idea how to work around this?

This is confusing, you're mentioning that you're using Grpc.Net.Client, which is the grpc-dotnet implementation of gRPC in C# (and has no native components).

The error "SymFromAddr in dbghelp.dll is not supported for this application type. grpc_csharp_ext.x64.dll calls this API." seems related to the (legacy) gRPC C# implementation from the Grpc.Core nuget package.

If you can use Grpc.Net.Client exclusively (and not rely on Grpc.Core), that should solve your problems.

Also note that we recommend to use Grpc.Net.Client anyway (due to https://grpc.io/blog/grpc-csharp-future/)

Hi there,

still facing the below error.

When I submit the app to the Microsoft Store, I get the following failures:

API SymFromAddr in dbghelp.dll is not supported for this application type. grpc_csharp_ext.x64.dll calls this API.
API SymInitialize in dbghelp.dll is not supported for this application type. grpc_csharp_ext.x64.dll calls this API.
API SymSetOptions in dbghelp.dll is not supported for this application type. grpc_csharp_ext.x64.dll calls this API.

Any idea how to work around this?
