Codec, compress(), CompressFormat, quality, decodeByteArray(), Android example source code with image.

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
	
	@Override
	protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
		super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
		setContentView(new SampleView(this));
	}

	private static Bitmap codec(Bitmap src, Bitmap.CompressFormat format,
			int quality) {

			canvas.drawColor(Color.GRAY);
            
                        //  you need to insert some image flower_blue into res/drawable folder
			Bitmap b = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.flower_blue);
                        // Best of quality is 80 and more, 3 is very low quality of image 
			Bitmap bJPGcompress = codec(b, Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 3);
                   // get dimension of bitmap getHeight()  getWidth()
		   int h = b.getHeight();
           
           canvas.drawBitmap(b, 10,10, paint);
           canvas.drawBitmap(bJPGcompress, 10,10 + h + 10, paint);

Try each step separately:

1. Restart Eclipse


2. Clean project and rebuild


3. Create a new project and try it if the problem persists, if no move copy project to other folder, delete project from workspace , create new project same name and copy java, xml etc. files to new project


4. Close Eclipse, backup folder c:\Users\myName\workspace\.metadata and delete it. Restart Eclipse try again import project to workspace



5. Re-installing the Android Developer Tools



6. Re-installing Eclipse - rename old folder with Android to Android_old, create new folder C:\Program Files\Android and copy new Eclipse with sdk into new folder



7. Created a new project importing from the file system



8. Created a new project from subversion
