logcat

Sometimes eclipse logcat messages disappear after closing the app for a short time. (Mostly not so short.) How to make it never disappear automatically? EDIT: My device is still attached. And how to set it to show log even after device disattach and clear just before next launch? Arjee this is also happening with me. The device is attached. And so all the internal actions are getting logged and the error message disappears very quickly. You should try the following (it worked for me) Restart Eclipse (as stated here Why logcat is not showing anything? ) if 1 does not work, you may try to

An android application that I am currently developing was crashing (fixed that), due to what should have raised an IndexOutOfBoundsException. I was accessing a string in the doInBackground method of a class that extends AyncTask, from the variable arguments parameter (ie String...). I was accidentally accessing index 1 (not 0) of a one element variable argument string (mildly embarrassing...). When the application first crashed I looked at my logcat, (and many times again to confirm that I wasn't insane) and there was no stack trace for a RuntimeException to be found. I crash my phone quite

I am trying to use Logcat to help diagnose my android issues. I frequently have a phone plugged in AND an emulator running. Sometimes I debug on the emulator, sometimes I debug on the phone, or maybe even a third device. Logcat does not continue to show messages after a device is switched. How can I specify what Logcat does or force it to resume logging without restarting eclipse? Insight appreciated I've noticed this at times. Usually one of two things does the trick. First, open the Devices view, verify that the new device is showing, and then switch back to Logcat. That seems to kick Logcat

@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); Log.e("SMS","Hello World"); //not showing Log.v("SMS","Hello World"); //not showing Log.i("SMS","Hello World"); //not showing Log.d("SMS","Hello World"); //not showing Log.i("sms","Hello World"); //showing } Why the Logging in the Logcat is not working for some line in the above code?? Turnsole There are some tags that don't go to the default buffer, as has been stated. You can view them by specifying which buffer to view with the "-b" logcat option. Check section

I've been told it's a command line option. But Eclipse's Run!Run Configurations...!Target!Additional Emulator Command Line Options field is already occupied with -sdcard "C:\android-sdk-windows\tools\sd9m.img" If I wanted to write something like adb logcat -s MessageBox > "C:\Users\me\Documents\LogCatOutput.txt" then where do I write it, and how (i.e., is the syntax even correct)? I need to output only a filtered tag, not verbose. ("MessageBox" is my TAG. Again I don't know if any of this punctuation is right, or even where the command goes.) Thanks for any help. There should be an adb.exe
