Debug mode buckles with my large program

[Mickster]

Hey,

I've developed a fairly large program, roughly 11,000 lines with tons of bitmaps and libraries. For a while the program has been impossible to run in debug mode. Debug would either crash, fail to highlight the current line or refuse to show me the value of any of my variables.

Is this a limitation to expect from having a large program or is there something I can do to fix it?

Thanks.

The debug mechanism works over the network. It is possible that the communication timeouts. I plan to add an option in one of the next version to exclude modules from the debugger. If it is possible please send me your project to [email protected]. It will only be used to analyze and improve the debugger.

Ah, well we only really use one module anyway (sounds silly, but there are reasons). Is it not possible to debug through a USB connection?

Breaking the code to several modules will probably make it work better (and your code will be better organized).

The debugger uses the network connection provided by ADB server (part of Android SDK).
