<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.readlogcatTest" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0" > <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_LOGS" /> <application android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name" > <activity android:label="@string/app_name" android:name=".ReadLogcatActivity" > <intent-filter > <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> </application> </manifest>
2. Create Activity and put following code in onCreate() method or where you want
package com.readlogcatTest;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class ReadLogcatActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
try {
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("logcat -d");
BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()));
StringBuilder log=new StringBuilder();
String line = "";
while ((line = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null) {
log.append(line);
}
TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.logcat);
tv.setText(log.toString());
bufferedReader.close();
process.destroy();
} catch (IOException e) {e.printStackTrace();
}
}
