Android Question Debugger and homescreen widgets?

[corwin42]

After I removed all threading library calls in one of my bigger projects and changed it to resumable subs (one of the best features of B4X now) I wanted to try the debugger with it.

If I try to run my app in debug mode I get the following error, when it tries to start the homescreen widget service:

*** Service (widget4x1) Create ***
Error occurred on line: 19 (Widget4x1)

Line 19 is the ConfigureHomeWidget call:

Sub Service_Create
    rv = ConfigureHomeWidget("l4x1", "rv", 0, "AHWeather 4x1", False)
End Sub

Is there a problem using a homescreen widget together with the debugger? Can the widgetcode be excluded from debugging? I guess #ExcludeFromDebugger only affects the legacy debugger.

You shouldn't test widgets in debug mode. Only in release mode.
