CaptureResultMetadata


public interface CaptureResultMetadata extends Metadata, UnsafeWrapper

Known direct subclasses
CaptureResultWrapper

A wrapper interface providing compatibility-focused access to CaptureResult and custom metadata.

Known indirect subclasses
FakeCaptureResult

A fake implementation of CaptureResultWrapper for testing.


An interface that provides compatibility-focused, read-only query access to the results of a single image capture.

Use this interface to query the results of a single image capture, including sensor exposure, lens status, and 3A states. Implementing classes can abstract OS version differences and cache expensive-to-retrieve properties to ensure efficient access across all API levels.

CaptureResultMetadata extends Metadata, supporting type-safe retrieval of custom library-defined metadata keys via Metadata.Key in addition to native CaptureResult.Key keys (using get and getOrDefault).

CaptureResultMetadata is a superinterface of CaptureResultWrapper.

NOTE: This interface is not stable for inheritance. Do not implement this interface directly. For testing, use the fakes in the androidx.camera.common.testing package.

Example

Querying native and custom keys:

val result: CaptureResultMetadata = ...

// Query a native CaptureResult key:
val lensState: Int? = result[CaptureResult.LENS_STATE]

// Query a custom Metadata key:
val customKey = Metadata.Key<Int>("androidx.camera.custom_key")
val customValue: Int? = result[customKey]

Summary

Public methods

abstract T
<T extends Object> get(@NonNull CaptureResult.Key<@NonNull T> key)

Retrieves the value of the specified CaptureResult.Key.

default @NonNull T
<T extends Object> getOrDefault(
    @NonNull CaptureResult.Key<@NonNull T> key,
    @NonNull T default
)

Retrieves the value of the specified CaptureResult.Key, or returns default if the key is not present or its value is null.
