Android Question Optimize code to save memory

[Melghost]

Hello.
I made a torch by using the screen and the flashlight. It's a simple project, but I noticed it spends more than 500 Kb when it's installed on the device.

'Simple torch using the camera flash or the screen to provide light.

I use the AdvancedCamera lib just to switch the LED flashlight on. Maybe it's an important part of the problem. In spain we say: "It's like killing flyes by using a cannon".

Is there a way to avoid the inclusion of unused parts of a library?

Thanks a lot, and congratulations for an amazing tool.

Write a new library which will only have the features you need. Use this smaller one then.

 

[Melghost]

OK, thank you.

I wanted to forget java, but I suppose that sometimes it will be impossible.
Well, I'll try to build and share that library... May God have mercy on our souls.

Use CameraEx Class by Erel. It has the method to turn LED on. I made similar program and with graphics files its only 400K.
