Android :: How To Debug Launcher Activity In Eclipse
Apr 16, 2009
I am trying to following this documentation 'http://source.android.com/using-eclipse' to debug android Launcher Activity in eclipse.
It said' You may need to open the Debug perspective (next to the "Java" perspective icon in the upper-right, click the small "Open Perspective" icon and select "Debug"). Once you do, you should see a list of threads; if you select one and break it (by clicking the "pause" icon), it should show the stack trace, source file, and line where execution is at. Breakpoints and whatnot should all work.
My question is which threads I need to select in order to debug Launcher Activity? I don't see a thread name Launcher.

I have mostly been avoiding debugging when I can because of these two problems, so hopefully someone here has suggestions to avoid them:
1. It seems that I have to build the SDK (`make sdk`) and copy it off to a directory for Eclipse to use almost every time I want to debug. I haven't followed through the "sdk" directive, so I'm not clear on why this is necessary instead of just having Eclipse read from the source in my directory. Isn't there some way for it to do this? FYI: I have a (modified) full checkout of Donut, not just the SDK.
2. How can I debug without using Eclipse? I would really like to be able to use something like gdb/jdb.

I've been developing on the simulator, but now I have a real device.
adb can see the device (from adb devices), and I've installed Eclipse/ ADB.
I can't work out how to get debug to use the device instead of the simulator though.

I have set up a "Debug Configuration" to debug my Android project. However to get it to debug on a device (HTC Desire) I have to set the Configuration's "Target" to "Manual", there seems to be no way to set in the Debug Configuration that it should go to a selected Device.
It does work, but each debug session I have to "Manually" choose the HTC device from the dialog. Can I set it to always to go the Device?

I'm using Eclipse and have an emulator running Android 2.1 and my IntentService. I'd like to step through my onHandleIntent() overridden function. I've put in a breakpoint on the first statement of the function, which is Context context = getBaseContext();. When the intent is called the program just fails and does not go to debug view in Eclipse.

Does anyone know how to DEBUG build an APK and launch it directly with Eclipse?
in my case, no matter whether i use Run> or Debug> menu command in Eclipse, my apk always logs Config.DEBUG as "false", although obviously the apk is signed with the key in factory debug.store.

I uploaded my application to Market and then downloaded it to my phone. Now I'm unable to use debug keystore which is used by default by Eclipse ADT Plugin (Re-installation failed due to different application signatures) and when I'm trying to setup own keystore in Eclipse->Windows->Android->Build->CustomDebugKeystore, I'm unable to enter password or accept keystore and type password later. Is there anything I can do or only way do debug app on device is to uninstall market version and deal with default debug keystore?

I have an application I am writing for Android that basically does a screen scrape of a large table on the web and presents it in a nicer way on the handset. Its 500k of html and takes about 20 seconds or so normally.
When I have my phone hooked up to the computer, I used to be able to just click on "Run" and my code would execute similiarly speedy, as opposed to Debug where it would take 10 minutes to complete.
Now, however, clicking "run" behaves just like debug mode.... I don't want this overhead, how do I get eclipse to stop sending my app to the debugger already? I have searched online and found a couple people with the same issue, but simply rebooting my phone doesn't fix it, and there have been no other solutions posted that I have found.

This is more of an Eclipse error than an Android or Ant error. My Eclipse project won't build because when it sees the build.xml created from the Android command, it starts looking for the debug and release commands. Well, since they are dynamically generated from the <setup> task, they don't exist. So now Eclipse (Build id: 20100218-1602) locking the project from build/run based on these errors. kay.. so here is the weird part: It worked this morning. In fact it has been working for weeks with the build.xml file sitting there. All I did was edit the build.xml file in Eclipse (changed some constants). Ant thinks everything is peachy.

i install new version of eclipse and Android sdk , but when i run an android project i get this error
Code:
Could not open Selected VM debug port (8700). Make sure you do not have another instance of DDMS or of the eclipse plugin running. If it's being used by something else, choose a new port number in the preferences.
ADB server didn't ACK
* failed to start daemon *
i try to solve the problem by following this , but i still get the same problem:
Code:
-Window -> Preferences -> Android -> DDMS
-Set Base local debugger port to "8601"
- Check the box that says "Use ADBHOST" and the value should be "127.0.0.1"
i am also tryng to reinstall android pluing for ecipse and even the android sdk , but i still get the same problem!
OS : debian6 x64bit
IDE : eclipse juno

I have a activity B that is called by activity A, I want to debug the code in B. I have set the breakpoint, however the debug control never enters B.
CODE:................
When I debug in eclipse, although the class B is called from class A, the debbugger pointer never enters the new window, where I have placed a debug point in Class B. I am not able to take the pointer control to class B and stop at a specific point, which will help me verify certain variable values.

I have a listview. Whenever I strike an item of listview the debugger gets opened instead of starting a new activity (i.e. what I want). Code...
P.S. all the xml files are correct.

I need to have 2 launcher activities (i.e. 2 icons on the home screen). Each launch icon would launch a separate activity. Essentially, I need a single apk which contains a suite of 2 apps which I don't want to distribute separately. Is this possible?

I want to give my application launcher icon (the one that is displayed on the startscreen!) a different, shorter caption. It seems the launcher takes its label from the mainfest section about the main activity's label, as here:
<activity android:name="MainActivity" android:label="@string/app_short_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
I already changed the original reference to my app's name @string/app_name to a different, shorter string resource here. BUT - big BUT: this also of course changes this activity's default title! And I did not want that to happen, there's enough space for a long application name! Setting the long title again in onCreate using the setTitle(int) method does no good either, because the short name will be visible to the user for a short time, but long enough to notice!
And - please don't answer my question by refering to a custom titlebar... I do not want to go that long way, just because of a stupid string title! It's a pain to draw a custom title bar for so little effect! Is there no easy way to just give the launcher a different string to display?

I have a widget with a configuration activity.
Currently the configuration launches when you click on the widget.
I want to add the configuration as an app icon to the launcher.
The problem is that when the configuration launches on click, I get a specific widget id , so each widget instance can have a different configuration.
What will happen if I start the activity from the launcher?
I wont be able to show multiple configurations on the same activity.

I've gone through a few guides and tutorials, and they're quite clear on how to start an activity (with intent). However, how do I create a new activity in Eclipse? I can probably do this by hand by then I have to modify the R file which is auto-generated. I can create a new XML layout.

I have activities A and B. The A is the one with LAUNCHER intent-filter (i.e. the activity that is started when we click the app icon on home screen). A launches B using start Activity(new Intent(A.this, B.class)). When the user has the B activity open, and then put my application into the background, and later my application's process is killed, when the user starts my application again, B is opened instead of A. This caused a force close in my app, because A is the activity that initializes the resources my app needs, and when B tried to access the uninitialized resources, B crashes.

I have a enable and disable button. When this button is enable, user can launch my application normally. But when the button is in disable state, I don't want to start the application, that is the launcher activity should not start, but the icon for application will be there.When we click on the icon for application to launch it should not start.

I am creating an alternative keyboard. In order to help users understand how to set up the IME after it is installed I have added a simple Main Activity that appears in the Application Launcher with set up and usage instructions. I also have a preferences Activity and I want the user to have an option to hide or show the setup instructions Activity if they don't want to see it any more. My question is how best I can do this? I am assuming if it is possible it would require overriding the IntentFilter for the setup instruction Activity. I have experimented with this and read through the Intents and IntentFilter documentation but I can't see how to do this.
