Question

hi i m trying to implement image blur in android i fond so many example for it but i m trying with this code

private Bitmap getBlurBitmap(Bitmap bitmap, int radius)
    {
        int w,h,total;

        if(bitmap == null){
            System.err.println(" <== BitMap is Null ==> ");
            return null;
        }

        w=bitmap.getWidth();
        h=bitmap.getHeight();

         for (int y = 0; y < h; ++y) {
             for (int x = 0; x < w; ++x) {
                 total = 0;
                 for (int ky = -radius; ky <= radius; ++ky){
                     for (int kx = -radius; kx <= radius; ++kx){
                        // total += source(x + kx, y + ky);

                         int _tempx=x + kx;
                         int _tempy=y + ky;

                         if(_tempx < 0 )
                             _tempx=0;
                         if(_tempx > w )
                            _tempx = w - kx;

                         if(_tempy < 0 )
                             _tempy=0;
                         if(_tempy > h )
                             _tempy = h - ky;

                         total += bitmap.getPixel(_tempx, _tempy);
                     }
                 }
                 bitmap.setPixel(x, y,(int)( total / (radius * 2 + 1) ^ 2));
             }
         }
        return bitmap;
    }

but whent i try to run this is display FATAL EXCEPTION like

i don’t know what wrong or what i miss,
can any one help me with this i referred this Example

Answer 1

In docs you can see that setPixel throws IllegalStateException when Bitmap is immutable.
You need a mutable bitmap. Simple way (one of many) to obtain one is:

bitmap = bitmap.copy(bitmap.getConfig(), true);
