If Android Studio is running on my development machine, when I launch the
app on a device from the command line using this command:
$ adb shell am start -D -n <activity> -a ...
Android Studio would immediately forward a port on the local host (8600 and
up) to the jdwp port of the app, so that the debugger in Android Studio
could debug the app if necessary.
Now, if, say, I would like to use a 3rd party debugger (rather than the
debugger in Android Studio) to debug the app, I will need to connect that
debugger to the port forwarded by Android Studio to that app to get the
debugging to work.
*My question: How can I determine what that port is? *
Here are a couple of things I've tried (to no avail):
1. $ adb forward --list
Alas, the forwarding done by Android Studio isn't shown.
2. $ adb forward tcp:9010 jdwp:<pid of the app>
Connecting the debugger to 9010 failed, probably because the jdwp
port is already locked up by Android Studio's port forwarding.
3. I can turn on DDMS and see the port assigned to the app. But what I need
is an API or text output so that I can get that info programmatically?
You insight would be appreciated.
