NOTE: This library is not necessary anymore. Newer versions of Android provide a new tool called Layout Inspector that should be used instead.

ViewServer is a simple class you can use in your Android application to use the HierarchyViewer inspection tool.

ViewServer requires the Android SDK r12 or higher. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Quick Start

Verify that you need this library(newer versions of Android don't)

If you do need this library then follow these directions:

Include the ViewServer library(easy directions found here)
Your application must require the INTERNET permission
The recommended way to use this API is to register activities when they are created, and to unregister them when they get destroyed:

public class MyActivity extends Activity {
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        // Set content view, etc.
        ViewServer.get(this).addWindow(this);
    }

    public void onDestroy() {
        super.onDestroy();
        ViewServer.get(this).removeWindow(this);
    }

    public void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        ViewServer.get(this).setFocusedWindow(this);
    }
}

Please refer to the documentation in ViewServer.java for more info.
