Android Studio 1.3 Preview NDK support

Question

Yesterday Google announced that native code debugging is now possible with this version of Android Studio.

https://plus.google.com/+AndroidDevelopers/posts/2Gk6yrZKV4X

I've updated to the newest build version "AI-141.1962279" and can't see any possibility of debugging native code.

I've switched to build-tools 23.0-rc1, used gradle plugin 1.3.0-beta1 but cannot set breakpoints in native code or step into JNI calls.

Is it really working?

Answer 1

July 10th update Android Studio Preview with NDK support is available : https://sites.google.com/a/android.com/tools/tech-docs/android-ndk-preview

Android Studio 1.3.0-Preview is indeed available through the Android Studio "Check for updates" menu.

Unfortunately, all C++ features aren't available yet in this preview. They will be available in about 2 weeks.

Answer 2

Android Studio 1.3 Beta Available posted Jun 19, 2015, 11:37 AM by Tor Norbye Android Studio 1.3 Beta is now available in the beta channel! Sorry, this build does not yet contain the C/C++ support; we are still ironing out a couple of critical issues, but we hope to be ready in the next week or two. Similarly, the vector rasterization support is also still not enabled due to various bugs.

UPDATE: the 9th of July update contains c++ debug http://tools.android.com/recent
