I am trying to save an Imgefile from a picture taken from the camera with high resolution. Unfortunatly no file is beeing created. I don't know where the error lies.
public void saveImage(Bitmap imageFile) {
String timeStamp = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss").format(new Date());
String imageName = "Image_" + timeStamp;
try {
String path = getExternalFilesDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES).toString();
File saveImage = new File(path + File.separator + imageName + ".jpg");
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(saveImage);
imageFile.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, out);
out.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
In AndroidManifest.xml i have set the permission to write to external storage.
<manifest>
