Apparently the eclipse debugger is not as dependable as I expected.<\/strong><\/p>\n

While I was working with the debugger, I noticed that resource ID is correctly being found, but when I really nitpick into the debugger, the inputStream seemed to be getting built from another source.<\/p>\n

I thought that was the reason my code was crashing, but it wasn’t.<\/em><\/p>\n

I use a SIMPLE xml android library – if the xml you pass it is in an unexpected\/invalid format, it can’t build the data models you create (My XML was invalid – therefore the crash).<\/em><\/p>\n

I did a roll back to notice that new XML I had added, crashed the run.<\/em><\/p>\n

The debugger just cranked out… giving me nulls when things weren’t null, showing different values even when my logs were printing correct values!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once I saw this hapenning, I didn’t trust the debugger as much as I ususally do.<\/p>\n

My advice : If the simpler solutions on this page have not worked for you – Take the following steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    Suspect code additions first! If something you added suddenly breaks your working code, it’s probably your own error<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    If your debugger acts weird, print useful log information (It is much faster)<\/strong> to give you the right information in the right places.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    These are the exact steps I took to find the root of the problem.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
