A lot of errors EGL_BAD_ALLOC ?
« on: June 04, 2012, 10:33:09 pm »
Hi.

I'm getting a lot of error reports of this type from users running my game. Is here someone with idea what causes it, or is it possible to avoid it?

java.lang.RuntimeException: eglSwapBuffers failed: EGL_BAD_ALLOC
at android.opengl.GLSurfaceView$EglHelper.throwEglException(GLSurfaceView.java:1082)
at android.opengl.GLSurfaceView$EglHelper.swap(GLSurfaceView.java:1040)
at android.opengl.GLSurfaceView$GLThread.guardedRun(GLSurfaceView.java:1338)
at android.opengl.GLSurfaceView$GLThread.run(GLSurfaceView.java:1121)

From which device(s)? Which OpenGL version?

If it's a driver issue probably not much can be done: http://www.jpct.net/forum2/index.php/topic,2624.0.html

Unfortunately thats all I can get from play market developer's console  :(
Users usualy sends error reports without any information, or with information: "not working !!"   :D

I have looked at this article before, but when I was checking code today I found in onPaue() I call first _glView.onPause() and then super.onPause(), maybe this is the reason. I'll change order of this and will see.
