Description

This crashes on the Motorola Razr running Android 4.0.4, but runs OK on a Samsung Galaxy Y running Android 2.3.6 and on a Galaxy S3 running 4.1.2. The code snippet is the following:

iv = Ti.UI.createImageView();


var takePhoto = Ti.UI.createButton({
                title:"Take Photo",
                width: 129,
                height: 44,
                top: 80,
                left: 25,
                idx: i
            }, function(){
                Ti.Media.showCamera({
    				allowEditing: false,
    				mediaTypes: Ti.Media.MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO,
    				saveToPhotoGallery: false,
    				success: function(e){
						iv.setImage(e.media.imageAsThumbnail(129, 0, 0));
						
    				},
					error: function(e) {
						alert(e);
					}
    			});
            });

Here is the output on logcat monitor with the full crash path:

Hello Ygor, When submitting a bug report it is important that you provide a working test case that is able to be easily pasted into an app.js and when run, clearly shows the problem. This ensures a speedy review and thorough understanding of the problem on both sides. Would you mind editing the bug description to provide this test case? For future reference: https://wiki.appcelerator.org/display/guides/How+to+Submit+a+Bug+Report Regards, Carter

Hi Carter, I have asked one of our Android Engineers for elaborating the test case as he is with the device right now. I've just filled the bug report earlier as I had a stack trace and the bug is happening only on certain devices. Daniel will attach a test case soon.

Hi Carter, Here is a working test case with the problem. {noformat} var w = Ti.UI.createWindow({ backgroundColor: "#dddcdc", navBarHidden: true, fullscreen: false, orientationModes: [Ti.UI.PORTRAIT] }); var rows = []; //PHOTOS var photos = [], placeholder = [], changeImage = false; for (var i=0, item; i<1; i++) { var r = Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({ backgroundImage: "img/form/photo.png", height: 187, width: 320, className: "rowPhoto" }); placeholder[i] = Ti.UI.createView({ backgroundColor: "#ccc", width: 129, height: 95, top: 60, right: 25, zIndex: 5, autorotate: true, borderRadius:10 }); r.add(placeholder[i]); var takePhoto = Ti.UI.createButton({ title: "TAKE PHOTO", width: 129, height: 129, top: 60, left: 25, idx: i }); r.add(takePhoto); takePhoto.addEventListener("click", function(e){ changeImage = this.idx; Ti.Media.showCamera({ allowEditing: false, mediaTypes: Ti.Media.MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO, saveToPhotoGallery: false, success: function(e){ placeholder[changeImage].setImage(e.media.imageAsThumbnail(129, 0, 0)); }, error: function(e) { alert(e); } }); }); rows.push(r); } var t = Ti.UI.createTableView({ backgroundColor: 'transparent', data: rows }); w.add(t); w.open(); {noformat} Thanks in advance Daniel Hansson

We tried to reproduce this issue but were not able to reproduce with Titanium SDK 3.1.3GA. Please test your application with the sample code and let us know if the problem persists.

Testing Environment:

Ti CLI 3.3.0 Titanium SDK: 3.1.3 and later Android SDK 2.3.3, 4.2.2

Test Code

   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
   	backgroundColor : '#000',
   	layout : 'vertical',
   	navBarHidden : false,
   	title : 'Take a Photo From Camara'
   });
   
   var takePhoto = Ti.UI.createButton({
   	title : 'Take_Photo',
   	color : '#000',
   	width : Ti.UI.SIZE,
   	height : 60,
   	top : 10,
   });
   
   var image = Ti.UI.createImageView({
   	top : 10,
   	height : Ti.UI.SIZE,
   	width : Ti.UI.SIZE,
   });
   
   win.add(takePhoto);
   win.add(image); 
   takePhoto.addEventListener('click', function() {
   
   	fireUpTheCamera();
   });
   
   function fireUpTheCamera() {
   	Titanium.Media.showCamera({
   
   		success : function(event) {
   			var cropRect = event.cropRect;
   			var photo = event.media;
   
   			Ti.API.debug('Our type was: ' + event.mediaType);
   			if (event.mediaType == Ti.Media.MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO) {
   				image.setImage(photo.imageAsThumbnail(129, 0, 0));
   
   			} else {
   				alert("got the wrong type back =" + event.mediaType);
   			}
   		},
   		cancel : function() {
   		},
   		error : function(error) {
   			alert('Unexpected error: ' + error.code);
   		},
   		saveToPhotoGallery : false,
   		allowEditing : false,
   		mediaTypes : [Ti.Media.MEDIA_TYPE_PHOTO]
   	});
   }
   
   win.open();
