java - Android - Bitmap cache takes a lot of memory -


i'm new memory management subject, there lot of things don't understand.
i'm trying cache image in app, i'm having troubles memory consumption:

all of bitmap chaching code pretty copy-pasted here: http://developer.android.com/training/displaying-bitmaps/index.html

i debugged code , checked heap size in ddms view in eclipse, , there 15mb jump after these code lines:

        options.injustdecodebounds = false;         return bitmapfactory.decoderesource(res, resid, options);

in "decodesampledbitmapfromresource" method.

the image 1024x800, 75kb jpg file. according i've seen on internet, amount of memory image supposed take 1024*800*4(bytes per pixel)=3.125mb

all of threads regarding subject don't why it's taking more memory should. there way cache 1 image reasonable amount of memory?

edit

i tried using decodefile method suggested on @arshadparwez's answer below. using method, after bitmapfactory.decodestream method memory increased 3.5mb - problem solved, sort of, want cache bitmaps directly resource.

i noticed during decoderesource method there 2 memory "jumps" - 1 of 3.5mb - reasonable, , strange 1 of 14mb. 14mb used , why happen?

images scaled according density can use lot of memory.

for example, if image file in drawable folder (which mdpi density) , run on xhdpi device, both width , height double. maybe this link you, or this one.

so in example bytes image file take :

(1024*2)*(800*2)*4 = 13,107,200 bytes.

it worse if ran on xxhdpi device (like htc 1 , galaxy s4) .

what can do? either put image file in correct density folder (drawable-xhdpi or drawable-xxhdpi) or put in drawable-nodpi (or in assets folder) , downscale image according needs.

btw don't have set options.injustdecodebounds = false since it's default behavior. in fact can set null bitmap options.

about down scaling can use either google's way or my way each has own advantages , disadvantages.

about caching there many ways it. common 1 lru cache. there alternative i've created (link here or here) allows cache lot more images , avoid having oom gives lot of responsibility.

c# - Send Image in Json : 400 Bad request -

from android trying send image class of data, iis webservice. (c#) the problem 400 bad request . the image being encoded base64 . , placed json rest of class elements. my guess base64 not valid inside json. server not understand it. if set string "" , post accepted fine. so question is, how make base64 valid within json array? ( tried url.encode no success). or how should send image android webservice? gson gson = new gson(); string json = gson.tojson(record); // record has param { string base64photo } how big image? i'm pretty sure surpassing iis json size limit (default 4 mb). check http://geekswithblogs.net/frankw/archive/2008/08/05/how-to-configure-maxjsonlength-in-asp.net-ajax-applications.aspx or http://www.webtrenches.com/post.cfm/iis7-file-upload-size-limits good luck!
