(Android Studio) How to debug through my code only?
When I try to debug through my code in Android (using Step Into, F7 command), the debugger takes me through all system classes, which I do not want.
For example, when I place a breakpoint at the 2nd line below (i.e. "startActivity(ourIntent);"), instead of going into my Activity (i.e. "myclass), the execution point goes into Activity.java > Instrumentation.java, etc... all system classes.
I dont want that. I only want to step through my code that I have written.
What is a way to achieve this?
Intent ourIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, "com.practice.gamesbook.myclass");
startActivity(ourIntent);
"Add new Pattern" option under "Debugger" > "Stepping" is disabled
Go to Android Studio > Preferences > Debugger > Stepping
then in the bottom click the plus arrow with the question mark that says Add Pattern
. Type android.*
and hit OK and then Apply.
For the latest version of android studios
- Go to
File->Setting
and search forStepping
- click on
+?
sign on the right side -
add the following 4 patterns one by one
com.android.*
android.*
com.androidx.*
androidx.*
In Android Studio 2.0 select File > Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Debugger > Stepping. Then click the "Add Pattern" button on the right. Type android.* (or whatever pattern you want to exclude) and click "OK" twice.
