如何从 Linux 命令行在 Genymotion 模拟器上调试 Android APK？

Question

I am using a Genymotion (VirtualBox) Android emulator. When I'm trying to attach a JDB to a running Android app from a command line, I get a java.io.IOException: handshake failed - connection prematurally closed delight, namely:

$ adb jdwp

$ adb forward tcp:1234 jdwp:1744
$ adb forward --list

Fatal error:
Unable to attach to target VM.

Using the Android Studio IDE/GUI, however, I am able to attach a debugger with a click of the button. Can't debug with the Android Studio giving my situation.

Answer 1

It appears that it's the Android Studio itself causing this problem... Also killing the adb server with the Android Studio running, makes the adb server to automatically restart. The solution here is not to run the Android Studio doing a JDB session from the command line.
