I've got a question regarding WeakReferences in Android. I'am using
AndroidQuery in my app to load images asynchronous. I've modified the
AndroidQuery source a bit, so that it is also able to send progress
callbacks so that I can update the progressbars in my notifications. The
problem is that the progress object in AndroidQuery is referenced as
a WeakReference so that references to progressbars which are no longer
visible on the UI are getting garbage collected. The problem now that
AndroidQuery works with an ExecutorService and that my callback objects
also are getting garbage collected when the Runnable has to wait for its
execution. I could change the WeakReference to a hard one to fix this
proboem, but then I would have memory leaks when referencing progressbars
directly. Here is how I pass the callback interface to AndroidQuery:
aq.progress(new ProgressCallback() {
@Override
public void setProgress(final int progress) {
//update progressbar
}
@Override
public void setMax(int max, int progress) {
//update progressbar
}
})
Is there a way to pass such a callback object without loosing the reference
when it is referenced inside an WeakReference object?
