Android Studio Mac Extremely Slow

Downloaded the latest Android Studio:  2.1.3 for mac and it won’t boot or run anything.

Seems first off you need to run the emulator on sudo or it will segfault.  After launching from Android Studio you see it tried to run something like: /Users/user/Library/Android/sdk/tools/emulator -netdelay none -netspeed full -avd Galaxy_Nexus_API_22. end then segfaults.

Copy the command and run:

So now it doesnt’ boot or appears to boot but takes days… you reboot because you can’t kill the thing either.  Maybe you have installed Virtual Box on you machine at some point and it turns out the kernel modules form virtual box interfere with the intel/google/android emulator( com.intel.kext.intelhaxm )

Solutions:

Uninstall VirtualBox…

Or

Enjoy the still slow emulator but it seems to work…

How to detect if your system tray icon has gone missing, C/C++, Win32

The Problem:

Sometimes if either the desktop crashes or windows decides to go wrong for whatever reason, it re-creates the system tray. There is no way to detect when that happens and your icon is now missing but your system tray application is still running.

The Solution:

Windows does send a windows message to be notified when the system tray is being created.  It won’t be sent to you unless you register to receive it.

To register to receive the message do the following and store the ID that is returned. The simplest way to do this is to store it in a global variable.

Then later on in your windows message loop handle the message.
