    Default QImage: out of memory, returning null image

    Hi has anyone found a solution to: QImage: out of memory, returning null image.


    As a little context, this error occurs when I try to load a bunch of photographs from E:\Image\Camera folder that houses all the photographs taken from a users camera in the N8. I am building an application that displays a photogallery in QML.

    My Application will not show the photographs housed under this folder, it seems it is clogging up phone memory.

    Please advise if there is a solution to fix this.

    This is probably a problem in your code.
    Please post the code responsible for loading the images.

    EDIT:
    Wait - if you are loading ALL the images in a directory at once, with a smart phone you can very well get out of memory.
    You should do smart loading, only loading as many images as you can show at any given time (maybe a bit more so scrolling will be smooth.

    Do you write clean code? - if you are TDD'ing then maybe, if not, your not writing clean code.
