Hi, "debug messages" was to imply anything emitted by locat, System.out.. , System.err.. , printStackTrace from Exception etc
And yes it's the same whether through Eclipse or otherwise, I suggested it can be painful when debugging in Eclipse with some real (non Google sponsored) devices that emit an excessive amount of these messages to find your own messages within that mess, filtering and redirecting to file and grep and changing buffer sizes and other time wasting steps aside. Some of the carrier sourced devices fill the default Eclipse buffer in a minute or so, particularly when GPS is on, the Google devices Galaxy S, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7 don't.
