Capture fails after a restart of the camera about cameraview-ex HOT 7 CLOSED

I also do see this in the debugger: kotlinx.coroutines.JobCancellationException: Job was cancelled; job=JobImpl{Cancelled}@d922855

@arvinkx good catch that was the exact issue. When a scope is created using CoroutineScope(coroutineContext) function, it attaches the scope to a new Job context. So when coroutineScope.cooutineContext.cancel() is called it cancels the job and thus no more coroutines can be created using that scope.

Is this reproducible in the sampleApp provided with the library?

from cameraview-ex.

Not sure, can't get the sample app to compile. It complains that File google-services.json is missing. The Google Services Plugin cannot function without it. Do I need to create a Firebase project in the console and download a google-services.json file to be able to run the sample app?

I had to include a google-services.json in order to compile it. I'm not sure why there is a need to have that in the project. @pvasa is that a dependency that could be removed? I also had to add gradle wrappers into a few sub projects.

I can confirm this issue exists in the sample app as well by leaving the app and coming back. Flash will fire but the picture is not taken and no preview is shown.

@pcm2a @arvinkx The sampleApp demos barcode detection implementation using firebase api as a demo for preview frame listener that is why it requires google-services.json. Please refer this google help article for instructions on generating google-services.json

@pvasa Not really familiar with Kotlin but I believe the issue is related to this block of code in CameraView.kt:

override fun onPictureTaken(imageData: ByteArray) {
    coroutineScope.launch {
        pictureTakenListeners.forEach {
               it(imageData)
           }
      }
}

Once stop is called without removing the listeners, starting the camera again and calling capture in debug mode in the sample app, gets to the line with pictureTakenListeners but doesn't call the block inside launch when breakpoints are set. Hope this helps as I'm not really familiar enough with Kotlin to know why that block is not being called.
