No Emulator tab in Edit Configurations in Android Studio

Question

General and Miscellaneous tabs are showing but Emulator tab is missing which was up next to General in Android Studio 1.4 before updating to Android Studio 1.5 - I cannot fix it.

Answer 1

My solution was to rename /tools/emulator to /tools/emulator.0

And then just have the below shell script that calls the emulator.0 and appends the qemu flags

#!/bin/bash

# http://stackoverflow.com/questions/59895/can-a-bash-script-tell-what-directory-its-stored-in

SOURCE="${BASH_SOURCE[0]}"
while [ -h "$SOURCE" ]; do # resolve $SOURCE until the file is no longer a symlink
  DIR="$( cd -P "$( dirname "$SOURCE" )" && pwd )"
  SOURCE="$(readlink "$SOURCE")"
  [[ $SOURCE != /* ]] && SOURCE="$DIR/$SOURCE" # if $SOURCE was a relative symlink, we need to resolve it relative to the path where the symlink file was located
done
DIR="$( cd -P "$( dirname "$SOURCE" )" && pwd )"

# echo "DIR is '$DIR'"
$DIR/emulator.0 "$@" -qemu -m 512 -enable-kvm

Looks like a bug, there is issue 195031 for this case

I don't know how to fix it, but you can try next

1. Find workspace.xml in you project dir

2. Find your configuration, it should look like

   <configuration default="false" name="app" type="AndroidRunConfigurationType" factoryName="Android Application">

and also check name attribute, your configuration may named different

3. Write params you need, e. g.

   <option name="USE_COMMAND_LINE" value="true" /> <option name="COMMAND_LINE" value="" /> <option name="WIPE_USER_DATA" value="false" /> <option name="DISABLE_BOOT_ANIMATION" value="false" /> <option name="NETWORK_SPEED" value="full" /> <option name="NETWORK_LATENCY" value="none" />

Maybe it will work
