I'm new to Android programming (and Eclipse IDE and Android emulator). I've got Hello World and some of Notepad working, but I'm still constantly getting quite a few DDMS console log messages (shown below) about not being able to bind locals for debugger. Is this a problem? Can I get rid of these messages somehow?

A: 

You can get rid of the the messages by adding following to your hosts file:

127.0.0.1 localhost

ps. hosts file can be found from c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts or if you are on linux /etc/hosts
