Summary: Ctors | Methods | Inherited Methods

public static abstract class CameraManager.AvailabilityCallback
extends Object

A callback for camera devices becoming available or unavailable to open.

Cameras become available when they are no longer in use, or when a new removable camera is connected. They become unavailable when some application or service starts using a camera, or when a removable camera is disconnected.

Extend this callback and pass an instance of the subclass to CameraManager#registerAvailabilityCallback to be notified of such availability changes.

Public methods

onCameraAccessPrioritiesChanged

public void onCameraAccessPrioritiesChanged ()

Called whenever camera access priorities change.

Notification that camera access priorities have changed and the camera may now be openable. An application that was previously denied camera access due to a higher-priority user already using the camera, or that was disconnected from an active camera session due to a higher-priority user trying to open the camera, should try to open the camera again if it still wants to use it. Note that multiple applications may receive this callback at the same time, and only one of them will succeed in opening the camera in practice, depending on exact access priority levels and timing. This method is useful in cases where multiple applications may be in the resumed state at the same time, and the user switches focus between them, or if the current camera-using application moves between full-screen and Picture-in-Picture (PiP) states. In such cases, the camera available/unavailable callbacks will not be invoked, but another application may now have higher priority for camera access than the current camera-using application.

The default implementation of this method does nothing.

onCameraAvailable

public void onCameraAvailable (String cameraId)

A new camera has become available to use.

The default implementation of this method does nothing.

Parameters
`cameraId`	`String`: The unique identifier of the new camera. This value cannot be `null`.

onCameraUnavailable

public void onCameraUnavailable (String cameraId)

A previously-available camera has become unavailable for use.

If an application had an active CameraDevice instance for the now-disconnected camera, that application will receive a disconnection error.

The default implementation of this method does nothing.

Parameters
`cameraId`	`String`: The unique identifier of the disconnected camera. This value cannot be `null`.

onPhysicalCameraAvailable

public void onPhysicalCameraAvailable (String cameraId, 
                String physicalCameraId)

A physical camera has become available for use again.

By default, all of the physical cameras of a logical multi-camera are available, so onPhysicalCameraAvailable(String, String) is not called for any of the physical cameras of a logical multi-camera, when onCameraAvailable(String) for the logical multi-camera is invoked. However, if some specific physical cameras are unavailable to begin with, onPhysicalCameraUnavailable(String, String) may be invoked after onCameraAvailable(String).

Limitation: Opening a logical camera disables the onPhysicalCameraAvailable(String, String) and onPhysicalCameraUnavailable(String, String) callbacks for its physical cameras. For example, if app A opens the camera device:

All apps subscribing to ActivityCallback get onCameraUnavailable(String).
No app (including app A) subscribing to ActivityCallback gets onPhysicalCameraAvailable(String, String) or onPhysicalCameraUnavailable(String, String), because the logical camera is unavailable (some app is using it).

The default implementation of this method does nothing.

Parameters
`cameraId`	`String`: The unique identifier of the logical multi-camera. This value cannot be `null`.
`physicalCameraId`	`String`: The unique identifier of the physical camera. This value cannot be `null`.

onPhysicalCameraUnavailable

public void onPhysicalCameraUnavailable (String cameraId, 
                String physicalCameraId)

A previously-available physical camera has become unavailable for use.

By default, all of the physical cameras of a logical multi-camera are unavailable if the logical camera itself is unavailable. No availability callbacks will be called for any of the physical cameras of its parent logical multi-camera, when onCameraUnavailable(String) for the logical multi-camera is invoked.

All apps subscribing to ActivityCallback get onCameraUnavailable(String).
No app (including app A) subscribing to ActivityCallback gets onPhysicalCameraAvailable(String, String) or onPhysicalCameraUnavailable(String, String), because the logical camera is unavailable (some app is using it).

The default implementation of this method does nothing.

Parameters
`cameraId`	`String`: The unique identifier of the logical multi-camera. This value cannot be `null`.
`physicalCameraId`	`String`: The unique identifier of the physical camera. This value cannot be `null`.
