In my application i am uploading image to server(using following code) I can able to upload a image to server successfully. My problem is if i upload a image which i taken by camera it is taking long time to upload because of the size of image(1.5 - 5 MB). I saw many compression method in android but i cant find out where should i use that inside my code because i am new to android.I want to reduce the time taken to upload. Can any one tel me how to compress the image and upload to server?
public int uploadFile(String sourceFileUri) {
String fileName = sourceFileUri;
HttpURLConnection conn = null;
DataOutputStream dos = null;
String lineEnd = "\r\n";
String twoHyphens = "--";
String boundary = "*****";
int bytesRead, bytesAvailable, bufferSize;
byte[] buffer;
int maxBufferSize = 1 * 1024 * 1024;
File sourceFile = new File(sourceFileUri);
if (!sourceFile.isFile()) {
//dialog.dismiss();
Log.e("uploadFile", "Source File not exist :"+imagepath);
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
messageText.setText("Source File not exist :"+ imagepath);
}
});
return 0;
