Exception in setDrawingCache in Android 1.5?
- by sunil
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

Can someone please let me know the problem?
