As you may have heard, Visual Studio 2015 introduces GDB support for Android development. The interesting thing about the capability is that because it debugs using GDB, it’s possible to adapt the implementation to debug other targets that support GDB debugging as well (e.g. Linux and Raspberry Pi). In this post I will share the steps I took ...
