Android camera locked after force close

Question

I have an application where I use devices camera.

Now I only release camera in normal flow.

@Override
public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder surf         


        

Answer 1

Since the best way to keep a portion of code so that you find it later is to publish it in the 'net,

private UnexpectedTerminationHelper mUnexpectedTerminationHelper = new UnexpectedTerminationHelper();
private class UnexpectedTerminationHelper {
    private Thread mThread;
    private Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler mOldUncaughtExceptionHandler = null;
    private Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler mUncaughtExceptionHandler = new Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler() {
        @Override
        public void uncaughtException(Thread thread, Throwable ex) { // gets called on the same (main) thread
            XXXX.closeCamera(); // TODO: write appropriate code here
            if(mOldUncaughtExceptionHandler != null) {
                // it displays the "force close" dialog
                mOldUncaughtExceptionHandler.uncaughtException(thread, ex);
            }
        }
    };
    void init() {
        mThread = Thread.currentThread();
        mOldUncaughtExceptionHandler = mThread.getUncaughtExceptionHandler();
        mThread.setUncaughtExceptionHandler(mUncaughtExceptionHandler);
    }
    void fini() {
        mThread.setUncaughtExceptionHandler(mOldUncaughtExceptionHandler);
        mOldUncaughtExceptionHandler = null;
        mThread = null;
    }
}

and, in the appropriate places on the main thread:

    mUnexpectedTerminationHelper.init();

and

    mUnexpectedTerminationHelper.fini();
