Android SurfaceView to Bitmap

[kekanekolohe]

So I'm trying to do something that should be relatively easy. On Android, I want to capture the contents of the SurfaceView Ogre renders to. I've tried overriding the onDraw and draw methods of a custom SurfaceView, but have only managed to create a BitMap with all zeros for pixels. Perhaps I need to do something after the call to "renderOneFrame"?

If anyone has experience with this, I would appreciate the help. Otherwise, once I figure it out, I'll post my solution here.

So I was hoping for a simple solution where I could simply grab the contents of the SurfaceView Ogre uses and copy it to an ImageView, but as mentioned, I was never successful in accomplishing this. In the end, I solved the problem by using Ogre's render-to-texture (rtt) and creating an ImageView from it's contents.

If anyone's got a better solution, I'd love to hear it.
