I know I could set a breakpoint at every line where my code changes the variable, but is there an option such as right-clicking a variable (to "Add to Watches") that would stop when a variable changes value?
I think C++ has this option. See this.
And Eclipse? See this.
Is this implemented in AS?
回答1:
You can break on value changes of some variables in Android Studio 1.1.0.
Android Studio calls them 'Java Field Watchpoints'.
From the breakpoints windows, (Run -> "View breakpoints...") or Ctrl+Shift+F8,
you can add "Java Field Watchpoints" from the plus in the top left corner, and then select your class and variable.

If the goal is simply to set a watchpoint where execution halts if a variable's value changes, there are two methods:
Pressing Ctrl-shift-F8 to set a watchpoint brings up this dialog:
That looks more powerful but it's confusing because it lacks the option I need; and there's an extra step: filling in the dialog box below:
Once you fill it in correctly, you get the same options for stopping execution as in the simpler method below:
- Define the variable on one line ending with a semicolon.
- Left-click in the area where you set a normal breakpoint and up pops a dialog box.
- Choose options to suit your needs.
Any instance where the value of the variable prefDbExists changes, execution will pause as at any "normal" (unconditional) breakpoint. And that's all I needed when I asked the original question.

What you seek for is commonly known as "WatchPoint". You will find detailed answer and examples on the doc. page of JetBrains - IntelliJ - Idea which is the basis for Android Studio.

For me this works perfectly !
