Capture exception details in NavigationController breadcrumbs

[Copilot]

App crashes with NoSuchElementException during navigateUp() show New Relic in the stacktrace, obscuring that the root cause is the app's navigation state management.

Changes

• Wrap navigateUp() in try-catch-finally: Capture runtime exceptions while ensuring breadcrumbs are always recorded
• Add exception metadata to breadcrumbs: Record exception class name and message when navigation fails, improving observability
• Preserve exception propagation: Re-throw exceptions to maintain transparent instrumentation behavior

@ReplaceCallSite
static public boolean navigateUp(NavController navController) {
    boolean rc = false;
    RuntimeException exception = null;
    
    try {
        rc = navController.navigateUp();
    } catch (RuntimeException e) {
        exception = e;
        throw e;
    } finally {
        final boolean result = rc;
        final RuntimeException finalException = exception;
        submit(requiredFeatures, () -> {
            Map<String, Object> attrs = new HashMap<String, Object>() {{
                put("span", "navigateUp");
                put("result", result);
                if (finalException != null) {
                    put("exception", finalException.getClass().getName());
                    put("exceptionMessage", finalException.getMessage());
                }
            }};
            analyticsController.recordBreadcrumb("Compose", attrs);
        });
    }
    
    return rc;
}

The instrumentation remains transparent—exceptions still propagate to the app—but developers now see exception details in breadcrumbs for debugging.

Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

• dl.google.com
  • Triggering command: /usr/lib/jvm/temurin-17-jdk-amd64/bin/java -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError --add-opens=java.base/java.util=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.lang.invoke=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.prefs/java.util.prefs=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.nio.charset=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.net=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.util.concurrent.atomic=ALL-UNNAMED -Xms1024m -Xmx8192m -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Duser.country -Duser.language=en -Duser.variant -cp /home/REDACTED/.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-7.6-bin/9l9tetv7ltxvx3i8an4pb86ye/gradle-7.6/lib/gradle-launcher-7.6.jar org.gradle.launcher.daemon.bootstrap.GradleDaemon 7.6 (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)
