-----------------------------------
Summary: Camera.getPicture -Handle of OutOfMemoryError gracefully
Key: CB-11034
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11034
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Plugin Camera
Affects Versions: 2.1.1
Environment: Android
Reporter: Dagfinn Parnas
We have an app for which we are dependent on using DATA_URL.
On some older phones (Samsung SII Android 4.1), we have experienced sporadic
OutOfMemoryError exceptions when taking a picture.
When this occurs the app crashes since the camera plugin doesn't explicitly
handle the java.lang.OutOfMemoryError which is thrown.
It's ok that the OutOfMemoryError appear, but the apps should be able to handle
it gracefully and not just have the app crash.
Example stack trace from an uncaught OutOfMemoryError
{code}
04-06 09:51:55.155: E/dalvikvm-heap(22744): Out of memory on a 31961104-byte
allocation.

org.apache.cordova.CordovaInterfaceImpl.onActivityResult(CordovaInterfaceImpl.java:120)
{code}
In the example above, CameraLauncher.getScaledBitmap doesn't catch the
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError and the app crashes. The same situation can occur in
CameraLauncher.processPicture (which has a try catch with only exception)
