title: Can you Disable DDMS in Eclipse
body: <p>Does anyone know if it is possible to disable the DDMS in Eclipse? By that I mean DDMS should not being start when Eclipse is launched.</p>
  
  <p>I'd like to use only the DDMS from the terminal, but when I start it it keeps saying:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Could not open Selected VM debug port
    (8700). Make sure you do not have
    another instance
        of DDMS or of the eclipse plugin running. If it's being used by
    something else, choose a
        new port number in the preferences.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I like the standalone DDMS better than the one that is built in to Eclipse, mostly because it is far easier to switch between DDMS and the source code that way. And, I feel it's being put too much into the same program when DDMS is run as a plugin to Eclipse. Also, as DDMS is quite unstable and crashes a lot, its easier to restart only DDMS and not having to restart the "not-so-fast" Eclipse.</p>
