Android Studio 2.1 debugger does not show local variables

Question

I am trying to debug over network in Android Studio. I connected via port 5555 and generally it is possible step through break points. But it often takes minutes just to exe

Answer 1

Java 1.8 does not support accessing variable values.

Update Gradle to version 2.2.0-beta3:

In your gradle-wrapper.properties

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.14.1-all.zip

In your project build.gradle file

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0-beta3'
}
