Camera Preview App in Android throwing many errors (Nexus 4)
- by Jagatheesan Jack
I am trying to develop a camera app that takes a picture and saves it in a SQLite database. I get a lot of errors when executing the application. My code is as below. Any idea?
CameraActivity.java

mCamera = getCameraInstance();
setCameraDisplayOrientation(this, 0, mCamera);
// Create our Preview view and set it as the content of our activity.
mPreview = new CameraPreview(this, mCamera);
FrameLayout preview = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.camera_preview);
preview.addView(mPreview);
database = new MySQLiteHelper(getApplicationContext());
Button captureButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button_capture);
captureButton.setOnClickListener(
new View.OnClickListener() {
private PictureCallback mPicture;

//mCamera.startPreview();
// get an image from the camera
mCamera.takePicture(null, null, mPicture);
PictureCallback mPicture = new PictureCallback() {
@Override

try{

database.addEntry(data);

}
);
