android DDMS logcat filter by name

Question

Is there any way to setup a logcat filter by name? I realize they have the filter by log tag, but my app may have various different tags. I can use the filter by pid, but of course everytime i recompile and redeploy this pid changes. I'd like to be able to fitler it by com.mycompany.appname or something along those lines. is this even possible?

Answer 1

I do this by adding a prefix to my log tags. For ejample:

• NameOfMyApp-Home
• NameOfMyApp-Settings

and then I use grep with:

adb shell logcat | grep NameOfMyApp
