Making a camera app and need help with some info

So... I used to program in visual Basic and pascal turbo and recently I got in to Android app dev.

Right now I'm making a simple app that uses camera...

Any general information regarding commands like 1)how to set camera mode as default when starting the app. 2)is there a way to classify an array of images and if so how do I do it (code and explanation please) 3)how to store camera. Capture to said image array.

Let's start with 3. I'll keep going from there. :-)

Hi Gilad,

The upcoming "Build a Self-Destructing Message App" Android course will cover the basics of using the camera, but that's still a ways off! In the mean time, I'd check out the Android Developer documentation on using the Camera and take a look at a sample project or a tutorial like this: http://www.vogella.com/articles/AndroidCamera/article.html
