Trying to create LifecycleCamera with destroyed lifecycle

Question

I'm trying to make floating cameraview for my screen recorder application.

FloatingViewService.java

public class FloatingViewService extends LifecycleService implements CameraXConfig.Provider, LifecycleOwner {
    private View mFloatingView;
    private WindowManager mWindowManager;
    PreviewView previewView;
    private ListenableFuture<ProcessCameraProvider> cameraProviderFuture;

    public FloatingViewService() {
    }


    @Nullable
    @Override
    public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
        super.onBind(intent);
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        mFloatingView = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.layout_floating_widget, null);
        final WindowManager.LayoutParams params;
        if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
            params = new WindowManager.LayoutParams(
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_APPLICATION_OVERLAY,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE,
                    PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);

        } else {
            params = new WindowManager.LayoutParams(
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_PHONE,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE,
                    PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);

        }
        params.width = 400;
        params.height = 300;
        mWindowManager = (WindowManager) getSystemService(WINDOW_SERVICE);
        mWindowManager.addView(mFloatingView, params);


        mFloatingView.findViewById(R.id.previewFrame).setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
            private int initialX;
            private int initialY;
            private float initialTouchX;
            private float initialTouchY;

            @Override
            public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
                switch (event.getAction()) {
                    case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
                        initialX = params.x;
                        initialY = params.y;
                        initialTouchX = event.getRawX();
                        initialTouchY = event.getRawY();
                        return true;

                    case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
                        return true;

                    case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
                        //this code is helping the widget to move around the screen with fingers
                        params.x = initialX + (int) (event.getRawX() - initialTouchX);
                        params.y = initialY + (int) (event.getRawY() - initialTouchY);
                        mWindowManager.updateViewLayout(mFloatingView, params);
                        return true;
                }
                return false;

BackgroundService.java Check below code how I call FloatingViewService.java

public class BackgroundService extends Service {
    Boolean onoff = true;

    @Nullable
    @Override
    public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
        return null;
    }

    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        new FloatingViewService();
        if (onoff) {
            onoff = false;
            startService(new Intent(this, FloatingViewService.class));
        } else {
            onoff = true;
            stopService(new Intent(this, FloatingViewService.class));
        }
    }
}

Note : This code is working as separate module but when I connect to screen recorder it not working, I have setup all necessary permission and service in manifests.xml

Answer 1

Use viewLifecycleOwner instead of this in cameraProvider.bindToLifecycle(this, cameraSelector, preview);
