Take screenshot programmatically of the whole screen

Question

I\'m taking screenshot as below:

 public static Bitmap takeScreenshot(Activity activity) {  
      View view = activity.getWindow().getDecorView();  
      v         


        

Answer 1

Read somewhere on the forums about another way: -

Process sh = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su", null,null);
OutputStream  os = sh.getOutputStream();
os.write(("/system/bin/screencap -p " + "/sdcard/img.png").getBytes("ASCII"));
os.flush();

You can try that out. Don't know if it works or not, just saved it for a rainy day :P.

EDIT:

Found the link to the post - How to take a screenshots?

User says, screenshots work for him. I think this should suit your requirement.
