Camera Photographing Sample (C/C++)

This topic provides sample code that covers the complete photographing process and the API calling sequence. For details about a single process (such as device input, session management, and photographing), see the corresponding C/C++ development guide links provided in Camera Development Preparations.

Development Process

After obtaining the output stream capabilities supported by the camera, create a photo stream. The development process is as follows:

Photographing Development Process

Sample Code

  1. Link the dynamic library in the CMake script.

        target_link_libraries(entry PUBLIC libohcamera.so libhilog_ndk.z.so)
    
  2. Import the NDK APIs on the C++ side, and perform photographing based on the surface ID passed in.
