Android Error While using ExifInterface : <p>I am trying to check the orientation of bitmap and flip it if there is a need, but I have error while applying the code. Here is my code while i am trying to flipp the image using ExifInterface:</p>

<pre><code>@RequiresApi(api = Build.VERSION_CODES.N)
    public void flipping(Bitmap b)
    {
        ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        b.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG,100, bos);
        byte[] bitmapdata = bos.toByteArray();
        ByteArrayInputStream bs = new ByteArrayInputStream(bitmapdata);
        try {

            ExifInterface exif = new ExifInterface(bs);
            int orientation = exif.getAttributeInt(ExifInterface.TAG_ORIENTATION,
                    ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_UNDEFINED);
            switch(orientation) {

                case ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_ROTATE_90:
                    rotateImage(b, 90);
                    break;

                case ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_ROTATE_180:
                    rotateImage(b, 180);
                    break;

                case ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_ROTATE_270:
                    rotateImage(b, 270);
                    break;

                case ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_NORMAL:

                default:
                    break;
            }

            encoding();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
    public static Bitmap rotateImage(Bitmap source, float angle) {
        Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
        matrix.postRotate(angle);
        return Bitmap.createBitmap(source, 0, 0, source.getWidth(), source.getHeight(),
                matrix, true);
    }
