I'm looking at some of the samples in apidemos, and I saw this:
Bitmap bitmap;
try {
bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is);
} finally {
try {
is.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// Ignore.
}
}
GLUtils.texImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, bitmap, 0);
bitmap.recycle();
Anyone know why they are calling bitmap.recycle()? Is that really
necessary? Isn't the garbage collection automatic?
