Why doesn't rsDebug work?

Question

I've inserted an rsDebug method in the Android RenderScript sample "Fountain", but I'm getting no messages out of logcat.

Here's a code snippet to demonstrate what I've tried:

int root() {
    float dt = min(rsGetDt(), 0.1f);
    rsDebug("dt", dt);
    ...
}

I have been working with the renderscript example CarouselView example from here and here is what I did to get rsDebug to work:

Added debuggable="true" to the application tag in the manifest file:
```
<application android:debuggable="true">
```
Added
```
\#include "rs_debug.rsh" 
```

to the carousel.rs renderscript file.

I can't get it to work either, even with samples that run perfectly. I tried explicitly with `` even though it complains about that being a bad practice since it automatically does it now. `#include "rs_debug.rsh"` with no slash, right? I get a compile error with the slash (hey, I have tried everything at this point). – Tim Trueman Jul 08 '15 at 21:40

Besides the answer of Dave i want add following hint:

Messages in renderscript are outputted in the "Verbose"-level. So it may be easy to ignore them because you are in the wrong level.

So in Android Studio you can change the logcat-output here:

They should be available in "Debug" as well actually. – Stephen Hines Jul 15 '15 at 20:35
