question

We have a bug in which our app crashes (android:screenOrientation="portrait"), when the following takes place: - User presses the sleep button once. - User presses the sleep button again. - Device (showing the 'locked' screen) is turned to landscape position. I do not understand why an exception is thrown. I have listed the stack trace and also the code from our main loop. How can we tweak the main loop so that this doesn't happen? Any help would be greatly appreciated! This exception is thrown: E/SurfaceTextureClient(9160): dequeueBuffer failed (Bad file number) E/SurfaceHolder(9160): Exception locking surface E/SurfaceHolder(9160): java.lang.IllegalArgumentException E/SurfaceHolder(9160): at android.view.Surface.lockCanvasNative(Native Method) E/SurfaceHolder(9160): at android.view.Surface.lockCanvas(Surface.java:77) E/SurfaceHolder(9160): at android.view.SurfaceView$4.internalLockCanvas(SurfaceView.java:744) E/SurfaceHolder(9160): at android.view.SurfaceView$4.lockCanvas(SurfaceView.java:724) E/SurfaceHolder(9160): at com.runestonegames.framework.Panel.run(Panel.java:273) E/SurfaceHolder(9160): at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:856) And our main loops looks like this: public void run() { running = true; while (running) { Canvas canvas = null; try { canvas = surface.lockCanvas(null); synchronized (surface) { // game logic if (canvas!=null) { try { paint(canvas); } catch (Exception e) { } } } } catch (Exception e) { } finally { if (canvas!=null) try { surface.unlockCanvasAndPost(canvas); } catch (Exception e) {} } } }
