Android Studio debug for doInBackground code of an AsyncTask [closed]

Question

I put some break points in my doInBackground() code of AsyncTask class. But when I am debugging the application, control is not going over doInBackground(). Please help me regarding this.

Answer 1

Put the following code fragment in the beginning of doInBackground:

android.os.Debug.waitForDebugger();

Then when you set a breakpoint in that thread, eclipse will find it.

In your emulator,

• Go to Dev Settings`.
• Click on Select Debug App
• Select the app which you are going to debug
• The checkbox "Wait for Debugger" will be enabled. Check this checkbox

Now try running the app again.
