Hi,
I am developing an application where I am using setDrawingCache and then once I get the Bitmap I destroy the cache by using destroyDrawingCache().
The application has been developed with Android SDK 1.6. When testing the application in emulator with Android 1.5 the application throws NullPointerException when try to manipulate the Bitmap returned by getDrawingCache(). It probably gives error since getDrawingCache returns null.
The interesting thing in this is that the NullPointerException comes only after I run the application twice or thrice. It means I am able to get the Bitmap for two times and then it throws this exception.
The error that I am getting is as below
java.lang.NullPointerException E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at com.babbleville.HomeScreenActivity.resizeBitmap(HomeScreenActivity.java: 394) E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at com.babbleville.HomeScreenActivity.access $0(HomeScreenActivity.java:392) E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at com.babbleville.HomeScreenActivity $1.handleMessage(HomeScreenActivity.java:327) E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:3948) E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:521) E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit $MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:782) E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:540) E/AndroidRuntime( 1036): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method)
Can someone please let me know the problem?
