android快速像素访问和操作

Question

I'm trying to port an emulator that i have written in java to android. Things have been going nicely, I was able to port most of my codes with minor changes however due to how emulation works, I need to render image at pixel level.

As for desktop java I use

int[] pixelsA = ((DataBufferInt) src.getRaster().getDataBuffer()).getData(); 

which allow me to get the reference to the pixel buffer and update it on the fly(minimize object creations)

Currently this is what my emulator for android does for every frame

@Override
public void onDraw(Canvas canvas)
{
    buffer = Bitmap.createBitmap(pixelsA, 256, 192, Bitmap.Config.RGB_565);
    canvas.drawBitmap(buffer, 0, 0, null);

}   

pixelsA is an array int[], pixelsA contains all the colour informations, so every frame it will have to create a bitmap object by doing

buffer = Bitmap.createBitmap(pixelsA, 256, 192, Bitmap.Config.RGB_565);

which I believe is quite expensive and slow.

Is there any way to draw pixels efficiently with canvas?

Answer 1

One quite low-level method, but working fine for me (with native code):

Create Bitmap object, as big as your visible screen. Also create a View object and implement onDraw method.

Then in native code you'd load libjnigraphics.so native library, lookup functions AndroidBitmap_lockPixels and AndroidBitmap_unlockPixels . These functions are defined in Android source in bitmap.h.

Then you'd call lock/unlock on a bitmap, receiving address to raw pixels. You must interpret RGB format of pixels accordingly to what it really is (16-bit 565 or 32-bit 8888).

After changing content of the bitmap, you want to present this on screen. Call View.invalidate() on your View . In its onDraw , blit your bitmap into given Canvas .

This method is very low level and dependent on actual implementation of Android, however it's very fast, you may get 60fps no problem.

bitmap.h is part of Android NDK since platform version 8, so this IS official way to do this from Android 2.2.

您可以使用drawBitmap方法避免每次创建位图，或者甚至作为最后的手段，使用drawPoint逐个绘制像素。

Answer 3

如果pixelsA已经是一个像素数组（这是我在你关于包含颜色的声明中推断的那样）那么你可以直接渲染它们而不用以下转换：

canvas.drawBitmap(pixelsA, 0, 256, 0, 0, 256, 192, false, null);

Answer 4

Don't recreate the bitmap every single time. Try something like this:

Bitmap buffer = null;
@Override
public void onDraw(Canvas canvas)
{
    if(buffer == null) buffer = Bitmap.createBitmap(256, 192, Bitmap.Config.RGB_565);
    buffer.copyPixelsFromBuffer(pixelsA);
    canvas.drawBitmap(buffer, 0, 0, null);
}

EDIT: as pointed out, you need to update the pixel buffer. And the bitmap must be mutable for that to happen.
