I have a DrawerLayout
which contains a FrameLayout
and ListView
in my app, I have to show the camera in the FrameLayout
, I've done that fine (as following code) and the camera works correctly. The problem is when moving from portrait orientation to (right-Landscape orientation or left-landscape orientation), or vice versa, it take the mobile a long time to make changes, the problem does not appear when moving from right-Landscape orientation or left-landscape orientation or vice versa.
How could I make this operation as fast as I can?
public class ShowCamera extends SurfaceView implements SurfaceHolder.Callback{
//This ShowCamera class is a helpful class
private SurfaceHolder holdMe;
private Camera theCamera;
public ShowCamera(Context context,Camera camera) {
super(context);
theCamera = camera;
holdMe = getHolder();
holdMe.addCallback(this);
}
@Override
public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder arg0, int arg1, int arg2, int arg3) {
}
@Override
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {
try {
theCamera.setPreviewDisplay(holder);
theCamera.startPreview();
synchronized (holder) {
}
} catch (Exception e) {}
}
@Override
public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder arg0) {
holdMe.removeCallback(this);
theCamera.release();
}
}
Now the original class is:
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private DrawerLayout mDrawerLayout;
private ListView mDrawerList;
String[] options = {"op1", "op2", "op3", "op4", "op5"}; //for the DrawerLayout
int[] icons = { 0,R.drawable.hospital,R.drawable.education,R.drawable.police,R.drawable.food}; //for the DrawerLayout
private Camera cameraObject;
private ShowCamera showCamera;
public static Camera getCamIfAvailable(){
Camera cam = null;
try { cam = Camera.open();}
catch (Exception e){}
return cam;
}
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
cameraObject = getCamIfAvailable();
new Thread(new Runnable()
{
int rotation = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getRotation();
@Override
public void run()
{
switch(rotation){
case 0: // portrait
cameraObject.setDisplayOrientation(90);
break;
case 1: // left Landscape
cameraObject.setDisplayOrientation(0);
break;
case 3: //right Landscape
cameraObject.setDisplayOrientation(180);
break;
}
}
}).start();
showCamera = new ShowCamera(this, cameraObject);
FrameLayout preview = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.content_frame);
preview.addView(showCamera);
//.
//.
//.
//.
//. Here, code for Drawerlayout no problrm
//.
//.
//.
}
@Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
// Pass any configuration change to the drawer toggls
mDrawerToggle.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
// Checks the orientation of the screen
if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) {
Toast.makeText(this, "landscape", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT){
Toast.makeText(this, "portrait", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
.
.
.
.
} // End of the class MainActivity
Also I have put in the manifest file the following as first answer mentioned here:
<activity android:name=".MyActivity"
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize"
android:label="@string/app_name">
Any help will be appreciated.
