I'm writing an app that stores a String in an SQLite database, which represents the filepath of an image on the /sdcard/. I have this code in the onCreate()
one of my activities:
final Intent receivedIntent = getIntent();
String imageStr = receivedIntent.getExtras().getString("picture");
ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.pPicture);
File file = new File (imageStr);
if (file.exists()) {
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imageStr);
imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}
The code works when I'm first loading the activity, but when I switch between screen orientations, it crashes my application. Any ideas on what I can do to fix this? I'd like to bee able to continue switching between orientations, but I don't need to refresh each time.
Also, I'm somewhat new, so please try to keep your answers not too complicated if possible.
Note that the file does exist in all cases.
