Delphi XE7  compiling for android 5.0 lollipop ( Nexus 7)

unit FMX.Graphics.Android;

line 285
TJBitmapFactory.JavaClass.decodeByteArray
return Options.outWidth=0 and Options.outHeight=0 .. function fails

This makes any software with stored bitmap resources ( i.e. Timage ) failing to load on android lollipop.

Anybody experienced the same?

    Don't have any help for you but I think Embrccadero have many tasks to realize: Android 5, iOS 64bit and both - significant, and  also we need Linux :)

    Is this happening with a developer image or with an officially delivered?

    We tested on developer images, and this didn't happen (or wasn't noticed). Do you know if the bug has been opened on quality.embarcadero.com? Is this only if you store the image in the FMX file, not if you load it separately? Does it happen also for images in buttons?

    Hi! All works fine on Andoid L developer on Nexus 7 2013. I'll then try to update my Nexus 7 2012 to last img. BTW do you use an SDK, bundled with studio, or any updated version?

    Well, not totally fine.. There is a known issue: TListView doesn't show bitmaps on Android L

    I've updated my Nexus 7 2012 to Android 5.0, can't reproduce the problem. Thus, two questions unanswered yet: do you use a bundled SDK and what Nexus 7 do you use?

    As http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/XE7/en/Installing_the_Android_Development_Tools says, "The installer for RAD Studio installs the current recommended and tested versions of the Android development tools during the RAD Studio product installation."
    If you need to have an up-to-date SDK, please install it separately and don't bind it to Studio

    That's strange, but after I've updated a bundled SDK, the problem still doesn't occur :( Please, make a test app and make an issue at quality.embarcadero.com, as Marco said. Anyway I have an option: now I'll try to update NDK.

    Arturo TheMonster As Sergey mentioned int he thread, we made some tests but could not reproduce. If you have more info or a sample program that fails please log it in quality portal and possibly link in this thread, so we can follow up.

    I have found now that problem happends only if you load  an .ico into the timage, a standard bmp have no problems, but both are than saved as png, so probably it's something related to transparency,
    i'm downloading now xe7 with update1 from embarcadero and the ndk r10c, i'll let you know shortly if this fix something

    Same problem with XE7 update 1 and ndk-r10c
    here is a copy of the demo project

    http://themonster.ch/Project2.zip

    tested on nexus7 2013 build lrx21p image,
    "Cannot load bitmap" Error and app hang

    on android 4.4.4 all works fine,

    i think the generated resource image is no more compatible with android 5.0

    Hi! The bug is tracked, it depends on image format. That's why I couldn't reproduce it.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Marco CantùNovember 18, 2014 at 6:48 AM

    So this is an issue FMX has with apps running on L, a bit elusive (as it depends on the actual images) so we missed it in our testing. We'll work for a solution ASAP.

    This android lollipop bug might be related, I'm not 100% sure but it looks suspicious: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=80316

  22. Marco CantùDecember 4, 2014 at 2:11 AM

    Paul McCombie An official hot fix is coming. We have a solution, need to do some more testing and we'll release it. As I mentioned earlier, the issue depends on the image, not all applications have the problem.

    David Berneda Yes, it looks the same. There really seems to be a bug in the release version of L, which wasn't there in previous betas.

    Google might offer a fix which will be good for compatibility with existing FMX apps (and many other applications written in java and other languages). In any case, we still need to release the hotfix, so that a Delphi developer can (easily, with no change in code) release an update that is Lollipop friendly.

    This issue is finally closed thanks to the new delphi XE7 update http://cc.embarcadero.com/item/30110

    Marco Cantù Sergey Krasilnikov  I found a minor problem with the new libs,
    if you use const from jActivity like
    TJActivity.JavaClass.AUDIO_SERVICE
    or
    TJActivity.JavaClass.MODE_PRIVATE

    jni check will stop the program, you must replace class const,

    SharedActivity.getPreferences(TJActivity.JavaClass.MODE_PRIVATE)
    need to be changed to
    SharedActivity.getPreferences(0)
    and all is working properly

    p.s. i hope to get sources soon since i cannot apply a fix to load custom fonts on android..

    Anyway a big thankyou to embarcadero dev team is mandatory
