I have a simple android project that I am trying to debug inside of Eclipse. When I run it in debug mode and use the “Step Over” button, it frequently seems to want to go into Android code (I don’t want it to do this, just as a C debugger will not go into libc). I get a screen that comes up which looks similar to:
Class File Editor
Source not found:
The JAR file blahblah/android.jar has no source attachment.
You can attach the source by clicking attach source
I don’t want it to go into Android or Dalvik code at all
(even if I could install source code) I am only interested in my own personal code.
Depending on how you “step” you may be run through some platform/SDK code while moving between Activities even if your code seems to be running clean. To work around this I set a breakpoint somewhere within the next Activity and step through the current Activity and then once I hit the end of the code I hit resume and it breaks in my next Activity skipping any code that is not mine. Not the most elegant, but it works for me.
In Debug you will always be run through the exception handling platform..
