Starting FlashLight #10

Hi, I have problem to find where is initialisation of the camera in SDK. I need to start a flashlight and I can't figured out where to find it. I need camera variable to make it so.

This is very tricky to implement at the moment, as the camera object is hidden quite deep in the jni layer in the GStreamer plugin https://github.com/EricssonResearch/openwebrtc-gst-plugins/blob/e09bfa127e59cd76b2bb0571258aadcdcce966e6/sys/androidvideo/video-source/jni/android_video_capture_device.c#L2326

There might be some good way to expose the object, but nothing is implemented at the moment.

Might it be simpler to use existing Android APIs to control the flash rather than exposing it through all the layers?

Not possible, you need to have a reference to the camera object to be able to start the flashlight. "Your application should only have one Camera object active at a time for a particular hardware camera."

Thanx for your answer, I think it's not worth it for know for me to go such deep to make it work. But thank you for information where to look it for :)
