OutofMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget (Android)
- by Chrispix
Getting an Exception in the BitmapFactory. Not sure what is the issue. (Well I can guess the issue, but not sure why its happening)
ERROR/AndroidRuntime(7906): java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget
ERROR/AndroidRuntime(7906): at android.graphics.BitmapFactory.decodeFile(BitmapFactory.java:295)
My code is pretty straight forward. I defined an XML layout w/ a default image. I try to load a bm on the SDCard (if present - it is). If not it shows the default image. Anyway.. Here is code :
public class showpicture extends Activity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
/** Remove menu/status bar **/
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
final Window win = getWindow();
win.setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
Bitmap bm;
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.showpicture);
try {
ImageView mImageButton = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.displayPicture);
bm = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeFile("/sdcard/dcim/Camera/20091018203339743.jpg"),100, 100, true);
parkImageButton.setImageBitmap(bm);
}
catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) {
Log.d("MYAPP",ex.getMessage());
}
catch (IllegalStateException ex) {
It fails on the bm=Bitmap.createScaledBitmap any thoughts? I did some research on the forums, and it pointed to this post
I just don't know why it is not working. Any help would be great! Thanks,
Chris.
