I have an activity which performs an image search, the results (URLs of thumbnails on the web) are rendered in a GridView.
My GridView adapter class delegates creating the actual Bitmaps to an AsyncTask that loops to sequentially fetch the image content from each URL using HTTPClient, and creates the Bitmaps using: BitmapFactory.decodeStream(entity.getContent()). I found that the above method sometimes returns "null" silently instead of creating a Bitmap. The occurrences appear to correlate with larger stream sizes (I check this by logging entity.getContentLength()). However, if I put a breakpoint just prior to the decodeStream call & then resume immediately every time I hit it (i.e. pause briefly on each iteration), the Bitmaps are created perfectly every time. All the images are quite small (most <10K), so the download & decodeStream happens fairly quickly. There are never more than 10 images processed in one AsyncTask. Any ideas on what's going wrong? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
