Apps LogCat Errors

[bigchibi]

Hi, hopefully this is the right, else please move me... cheers!


I'm running an app i'm developing and am getting some errors in logcat.

Can anyone please show me where to find specific error code lists, etc... (so I don't have to ask first!)

Here are the first set (non sound issues)

E( 2087* 2087) Dispatching key KeyEvent{action=0 code=4 repeat=0 meta=0 scancode=158 mFlags=8} to com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow$DecorView@2feb0e88  (enter ViewRoot)

Tell me about a single one or the the lot. I set it to only record Warnings and above. But on some searches people say some of these aren't even errors... so???


Many thanks!

None of those lines looks like errors to me.

To view your errors in Eclipse, click on Window->Show View->Error Log, and/or Window->Show View->Problems.

I hope this helped.

Errors shown in that view are compilation errors. That's not what he wants. He wants runtime errors. He is doing it correctly, however he doesn't seem to be pasting his entire logcat output, as none of the lines he has posted are error lines.

EDIT: Or rather, they are system-level errors that can be ignored by the developer as they are handled by the system automatically. What you need to be watching for are uncaught exceptions, such as NullPointerException, or IllegalStateException, etc... These are application-level errors and ones that you need to fix.

Hi, sorry for taking so long to get back, unexpected holiday

Yes I was running a logCat app on the actual phone. I'd also applied a filter just to get this apps process id, and only captured warnings and errors.

A couple of times i've had crashes and the audio has continued playing, which I find a bad user experience because you have to restart (I did anyway) your phone to get rid.


I'm happy if those errors are not really my fault. I can research them more leisurely now...



Here's the actual app: Mars Invaders
It won't have any ads for another week or so (depending on available free time). Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for all help
