/**
 * CameraHardwareInterface.h defines the interface to the
 * camera hardware abstraction layer, used for setting and getting
 * parameters, live previewing, and taking pictures.
 *
 * It is a referenced counted interface with RefBase as its base class.
 * CameraService calls openCameraHardware() to retrieve a strong pointer to the
 * instance of this interface and may be called multiple times. The
 * following steps describe a typical sequence:
 *
 *   -# After CameraService calls openCameraHardware(), getParameters() and
 *      setParameters() are used to initialize the camera instance.
 *      CameraService calls getPreviewHeap() to establish access to the
 *      preview heap so it can be registered with SurfaceFlinger for
 *      efficient display updating while in preview mode.
 *   -# startPreview() is called, which is passed a preview_callback()
 *      function and a user parameter. The camera instance then periodically
 *      calls preview_callback() each time a new preview frame is available.
 *      The callback routine has two parameters: the first is a pointer to
 *      the IMemory containing the frame and the second a user parameter. If
 *      the preview_callback code needs to use this memory after returning,
 *      it must copy the data.
 *
 * Prior to taking a picture, CameraService calls autofocus() with
 * autofocus_callback() and a user parameter. When auto focusing has
 * completed, the camera instance calls autofocus_callback(), which informs
 * the application whether focusing was successful. The camera instance
 * only calls autofocus_callback() once and it is up to the application to
 * call autoFocus() again if refocusing is desired.
 *
 * CameraService calls takePicture() to request the camera instance take a
 * picture. This method has two callbacks: raw_callback() and jpeg_callback().
 * When the raw image is available, raw_callback() is called with a pointer
 * to the IMemory containing the raw image. When the jpeg image is available,
 * jpeg_callback() is called with a pointer to the IMemory containing the
 * jpeg image. As with preview_callback(), the memory must be copied if it's
 * needed after returning.
