Issue TIMOB-10534: Tooling: Android emulator silently fails
When I try to run the android emulator I see the following in the Debug output: {noformat} [DEBUG] C:\SDK\tools\emulator.exe -avd titanium_6_WVGA854 -port 5560 -sdcard "C:\Users\qatester\.titanium\titanium_6_WVGA854.sdcard" -logcat *:d,*,TiAPI:V -no-boot-anim -partition-size 128 armeabi-v7a [DEBUG] signal caught: 3 [DEBUG] calling emulator kill on 3872 {noformat} A bit of poking around finds that the emulator does not launch when the armeabi-v7a argument is attached. {noformat} Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601] Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.

C:\Users\qatester>C:\SDK\tools\emulator.exe -avd titanium_6_WVGA854 -port 5560 - sdcard "C:\Users\qatester\.titanium\titanium_6_WVGA854.sdcard" -logcat *:d,*,TiA PI:V -no-boot-anim -partition-size 128 armeabi-v7a C:\Users\qatester>invalid command-line parameter: armeabi-v7a. Hint: use '@foo' to launch a virtual device named 'foo'. please use -help for more information {noformat} I think this has something to do with the x86 emulators I had tested against, but can not figure out how to undo that change. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create an Android project. 2. Run the project in the emulator. Expected results: The app should run in the emulator or should throw a relevant error. Actual results: The debug shows the above message before flipping the view to waiting for the emulator to be ready which finally times out.
