Creating a mutable Bitmap from ByteArray... import not working?

Question

I'm trying to do something like this:

Bitmap bmp;
BitmapFactory.Options.inMutable = true;
bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(data, 0, data.length);

But I'm getting an error under BitmapFactory.Options.inMutable = true;

Cannot make a static reference to the non-static field BitmapFactory.Options.inMutable

I'm sure the solution is probably something simple, but I'm unsure of why it's not working.

You need to create an instance of the BitmapFactory.Options class. Something like:

BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inMutable = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(data, 0, data.lentgh, options);

Will try this. I just was using the code snippet from here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7359173/create-bitmap-from-bytearray-in-android – May 05 '14 at 16:10
Thanks. Appreciate the clarification. – May 05 '14 at 16:31

inMutable is not static field. Try this:

BitmapFactory.Options opts = new BitmapFactory.Options();
opts.inMutable = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(data, 0, data.length(), opts);

or even better this:

Bitmap bmp;
bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(data, 0, data.length);
Bitmap mutableBitmap = bmp.copy(Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888, true);

Hmmm... I took my answer from here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7359173/create-bitmap-from-bytearray-in-android but it seems like copy should be used because of memory. – May 05 '14 at 16:10
