Revision history [back]

Using OpenCV4Android, I wanted to calculate, draw and display the histogram (in an ImageView) of the red color channel in a bgr image. I have tried to follow this Python (?) tutorial and imitate it using Android API. I have also logged out some simple statements after each step which tells me that the step has executed successfully. I get an OpenCV Error and through these log statements, I know that it has occured in my calcHist() call.

Following is from Logcat:

Here is my code. The comments in code show what each step is aiming to do. Please tell me what mistake I am making and how to correct it?
