Background:
I've decided that since bitmaps take a lot of memory which can cause out-of-memory errors easily, I will put the hard, memory consuming work on C/C++ code .
The steps I use for rotating a bitmap are:
- read bitmap info (width,height)
- store bitmap pixels into an array.
- recycle the bitmap.
- create a new bitmap of opposite size.
- put the pixels into the new bitmap.
- free the pixels and return the bitmap.
The problem:
Even though everything seems to run without any errors, the output image is not a rotation of the original. In fact, it ruins it completely.
The rotation should be counter clock wise, 90 degrees.
Example (screenshot is zoomed in) of what I get:
So as you can see, not only the colors became weirder, but the size doesn't match what I've set to it. Something is really weird here.
Maybe I don't read/put the data correctly?
Of course this is just an example. The code should work fine on any bitmap, as long as the device has enough memory to hold it. Also, I might want to do other operations on the bitmap other than rotating it.

EDIT: after I got my answer, I wish to share this code and notes about it to everyone:
in order for it to work, i've replaced in the code every instance of "uint16_t" with "uint32_t" (that's the bug on my code I've asked about).
input and output bitmap must be with 8888 config (which is ARGB )
input bitmap will be recycled during the process.
the code rotates the image 90 degrees counter clock wise. Of course you can change it depending on your needs.
better solution
i've made a nice post having this functionality and others, here .
ARGB_8888format should you be usinguint32_tfor creating rotated Bitmap? – Dragonflyuint16_tto save memory but it's best to verify this first. – Dragonfly
