Yes, that would be great. I have been able to test my app running in foreground. In background will be much better. It sometimes just needs to take a snapshot so there is no problem with the battery.
When implementing you have to take care about the locking mechanism. As you know the camera can only be used by the activity shown on screen now (implicitly locked by the preview). I found out however, that this concept is not 100% clean. If your surface got created and you start the preview immediately, without any delay, you can conflict with another app still stopping its preview. So work has to be done on proper locking of the camera anyway. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
