i’m trying to create cameraPreview, and I found in the below code “Camera.open()”

this method is not accessible or not available to me, there no such method the Object Camera

can have access to.

Is there any thing i should do, or it’s amistake inthe tutorial?

Java Code:

@Override
    public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) 
    {
            try
            {
                    //Open the Camera in preview mode
                    this.camera = Camera.open();
                    this.camera.setPreviewDisplay(this.holder);
            }
            catch(IOException ioe)
            {
                    ioe.printStackTrace(System.out);
            }
    }
