Take Screenshot in B4A version 2.0

[salmander]

The take screenshot is working in the B4A versions prior to v2.0. However, when I tried it in b4a v2.0. The application crashed with an error.

Sub TakeScreenshot (Activity As Activity)
    Log("TakeScreenshot activated")
       ' Take a screenshot.
    
       Dim Obj1, Obj2 As Reflector
       Dim bmp As Bitmap
       Dim c As Canvas
       Dim now, i As Long
       Dim dt As String
       DateTime.DateFormat = "yyMMddHHmmss"
       now = DateTime.now
       dt = DateTime.date(now) ' e.g.: "110812150355" is Aug.12, 2011, 3:03:55 p.m.
       Obj1.Target = Obj1.GetActivityBA
       Obj1.Target = Obj1.GetField("vg")
      bmp.InitializeMutable(Activity.Width, Activity.Height)
       c.Initialize2(bmp)
       Dim args(1) As Object
       Dim types(1) As String
       Obj2.Target = c
       Obj2.Target = Obj2.GetField("canvas")
       args(0) = Obj2.Target
       types(0) = "android.graphics.Canvas"
       Obj1.RunMethod4("draw", args, types)
       Dim Out As OutputStream
       Out = File.OpenOutput(File.DirRootExternal, dt & ".png", False)
       bmp.WriteToStream(Out, 100, "PNG")
       Out.close
    ToastMessageShow("Screenshot Captured", False)
End Sub

and here is the error log

[Erel]

Agraham has updated the Reflection library to support the changes in v2.00. You should download the new version.

I can use this feature to capture other assets of the screen?
or it is linked only with the current task?

thanks

When I use this code, the resulting image turns out to have a transparent background instead of the normal black.
