How do I use the Eclipse debugger in an AsyncTask when developing for Android?

Question

I\'m running ADT (Android Development Tools) in Eclipse and verified that my debugger is working by putting a breakpoint in MainMenu.oncreate (class Activity).

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.
