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

For me I had to set testCoverageEnabled to false like so:

android {
    buildTypes {
        debug {
            ...
            testCoverageEnabled false
        }
    }
}

When I had this set to true, I was not getting local variables

Answer 2

While this is not a permanent solution to this problem, my most consistent fix (after trying the other answers here to no avail) has simply been restarting my computer.

Answer 3

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'
}
