Debugging Android
Iggy Krajci, Darren Cummings · Apress eBooks · 2013
The processes for identifying runtime issues and possible problematic code in an Android OS–targeted application or in the Android system software stack are remarkably similar. The challenges and approaches are the same, regardless of whether the underlying platform architecture is based on Intel architecture and the latest-generation Atom processor or on ARM architecture. This chapter provides an overview of the available debug methodologies for Android-targeted software on Intel architectures. We will also touch on the setup and configuration of application and system software debug environments targeting Android and Intel architectures in the early part of the chapter. In the process of doing so, we will also point out where the experience differs when developing for ARM architecture. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
