A/Looper: Could not create wake pipe. errno=24

问题:

We're building an app that does a lot of animations and downloads a lot of images. After a certain amount of transactions (a predictable number), the app is crashing with the error:

A/Looper: Could not create wake pipe. errno=24

We don't use Looper in our code, but a few of the libraries we use do use Looper:

1. ActionBarSherlock: I don't think this is the culprit
2. facebook: I don't think this is the culprit
3. nineoldandroid: This animation library could be the culprit
4. volley: This is probably not the culprit
5. Picasso: This could be the culprit

Has any body experienced this Looper error with any of these libs and knows how to fix?

回答1:

The problem was in the Picasso lib. We weren't using it in the intended fashion. We were holding on to a copy of the Picasso builder.

We avoided this problem by always using

Picasso.with(Context).load(Url).into(ImageView)

回答2:

For us, the problem was the fact that we had two different instances of Picasso lying around. If you use the builder to create a custom instance but make sure no other instance is created elsewhere in your app, then this problem shouldn't appear
