FATAL EXCEPTION: main java.lang.OutOfMemoryError at android.graphics.BitmapFactory.nativeDecodeStream(Native Method)

Question

I keep getting this error when I run my app. The app will compile fine and once I start interacting with it (ImageSlider) sometimes it breaks and comes up with that message.

COMMENTS

I saw some other threads but they where not helpfull, or at least not implementable on my case.

Any idea how can I tacle this issue?

Solution 1

If Google docs didn't help (and they have some neat techniques), as a last resort you can try adding android:largeHeap="true" to the <application> tag in the AndroidManifest.xml. But really, last resort.

Solution 2

You should look at this article on android dev site http://developer.android.com/training/displaying-bitmaps/index.html . You should load bitmap asynchronously, because you are decoding file and its expensive operation and you should also first load bitmap size and than scale it to real size of imageview

Solution 3

you should use this......

      @Override
    public Object instantiateItem(ViewGroup container, int position) {
        final TouchImageView imgDisplay;

        inflater = (LayoutInflater) _activity
                .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        View viewLayout = inflater.inflate(
                R.layout.layout_fullscreen_image, container, false);

        imgDisplay = (TouchImageView) viewLayout
                .findViewById(R.id.imgDisplay);
        final ProgressBar spinner = (ProgressBar) viewLayout
                .findViewById(R.id.loading);
        // btnShare = (Button) viewLayout.findViewById(R.id.btnShare);

        imageLoader.displayImage(_imagePaths.get(position).get("url"),
                imgDisplay, options, new ImageLoadingListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onLoadingStarted() {
                        spinner.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onLoadingFailed(FailReason failReason) {
                        String message = null;
                        switch (failReason) {
                        case IO_ERROR:
                            message = "Input/Output error";
                            break;
                        case OUT_OF_MEMORY:
                            message = "Out Of Memory error";
                            break;
                        case UNKNOWN:
                            message = "Unknown error";
                            break;
                        }
                        Toast.makeText(FullScreenViewActivity.this,
                                message, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                        spinner.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                        imgDisplay
                                .setImageResource(android.R.drawable.ic_delete);
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onLoadingComplete(Bitmap loadedImage) {
                        spinner.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                        Animation anim = AnimationUtils
                                .loadAnimation(FullScreenViewActivity.this,
                                        R.anim.fade_in);
                        imgDisplay.setAnimation(anim);
                        anim.start();

                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onLoadingCancelled() {
                        // Do nothing
                    }
                });

        ((ViewPager) container).addView(viewLayout, 0);

        return viewLayout;
    }

    @Override
    public void destroyItem(ViewGroup container, int position, Object object) {
        ((ViewPager) container).removeView((FrameLayout) object);

    }
}

Add this code on onCreate() method..

      private DisplayImageOptions options;

      options = new DisplayImageOptions.Builder()
            .showImageForEmptyUri(R.drawable.ic_launcher).cacheOnDisc()
            .imageScaleType(ImageScaleType.IN_SAMPLE_INT).build();

Add universal-image-loader-1.6.1-with-src.jar jar file to your libs folder.

UPDATE:

 private DisplayImageOptions options;
 public FullScreenImageAdapter(Activity activity,
        ArrayList<String> imagePaths) {
    this._activity = activity;
    this._imagePaths = imagePaths;
    options = new DisplayImageOptions.Builder()
            .showImageForEmptyUri(R.drawable.ic_launcher).cacheOnDisc()
            .imageScaleType(ImageScaleType.IN_SAMPLE_INT).build();
 }

I will try it now Piyush!

[AndroidKrayze]

Piyush, my class extends adapter and is not an activity, so that means that I do not have an onCreate method.

[Piyush]

you can also add it on your Adapter class Constructor.

[AndroidKrayze]

Ok I have completed the class but I get some errors :

[Piyush]

Ok do one thing remove from that constructor. Have you make different class of adapter? If you had, then just make that class inside the activity from which your adapter class being called. I am going now. So if still u have query leave it here.

[AndroidKrayze]

Ok I have completed the class but I get some errors on ImageLoader.displayImage(_imagePaths.get(position).get(url), <The method get(String) is undefined for the type String> || switch(failReason) <Cannot switch on a value of type FaiLReason, Only convertible int values or enum veriables are permited> || R.anim.fade in <anim cannot be resolved or is not a field> Note that am using universal-loader-1.9.1, could not find 1.6
