System.ObjectDisposedException: 'Cannot access a closed Stream on .net 8 maui android

[Eves101]

Description

When images are loaded from a memorystream on to a page, when going back via the backbutton on an android device a fatal error occurs. But not always, but often.

Please try the project in the repository, It is based on @jfversluis MauiBase64ImageSample on git.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new maui navigationpage app
2. create a contentview that holds the image
3. create a contentpage that holds several views with image
4. create several pages from the mainpage
5. use the backbutton to close the pages
6. observe the error

We've added this issue to our backlog, and we will work to address it as time and resources allow. If you have any additional information or questions about this issue, please leave a comment. For additional info about issue management, please read our Triage Process.

[Eves101]

Upgraded the github project to .net 8

[Eves101]

Windows machine also crashes on 10 pages or more in the sample project.
Workaround added in the repo: caching files and using the filenames is working.

[XamlTest]

Verified this on Visual Studio Enterprise 17.9.0 Preview 2(8.0.3). Repro on Android 14.0-API34 and Windows 11 with below Project:
MauiBase64ImageSample.zip

We are having the same issue. After I load the image from memory stream and open a new page and navigate to back, I receive System.ObjectDisposedException on Android. This issue is preventing us to go live. When will we have a fix for this?

[r-work]

Same issue here, why is this added to the backlog? is there at least some sort of workaround?

[Eves101]

I work around it by clearing the android imagecache:

var imageManagerDiskCache = Path.Combine(FileSystem.CacheDirectory, "image_manager_disk_cache");

                if (Directory.Exists(imageManagerDiskCache))
                {
                    foreach (var imageCacheFile in Directory.EnumerateFiles(imageManagerDiskCache))
                    {
                        File.Delete(imageCacheFile);
                    }
                }

@Eves101 thanks for the snippet, how often do you run this? do you use a timer or something?

[Eves101]

I call it when i cache or delete a file, soo fairly often... :(

[naaeef]

Hi @Eves101
Do you have a sample on how to apply your workaround?

[r-work]

Not exactly sure either, I do not cache any images, mine usually loads from from a local SQLITE db, or just in memory, like a user avatar.

[Eves101]

@naaeef
I take this approach:

• get an image from api in a stream
• empty the android cache
• save the image to the app data folder/yourfoldername/ ( with a filename like: avatar.jpg)
• assign the filename to the imagesource

[SamJealTe]

I don't get how this issue hasn't been fixed for 4 months. Saving the image may sound as workaround but it is basically a whole different approach people use to avoid this issue.

@jonathanpeppers thoughts?

[jonathanpeppers]

This feels like "MAUI doesn't handle cancellation", right?

Looking at the code:

maui/src/Core/src/ImageSources/StreamImageSourceService/StreamImageSourceService.Android.cs

Lines 28 to 32 in 68f6e4b

	PlatformInterop.LoadImageFromStream(imageView, stream, callback);
	var result = await callback.Result;
	stream?.Dispose();

If you navigated away from the page, I don't see what would cancel this gracefully.

Can someone comment what method in the sample is the problematic one? Which one of these?

👀 seems to happen when scrolling back up on CollectionView after scrolling down through items when items have ImageSource value set i.e. ImageSource.FromStream(() => copyStream)

The offending code seems to be:

MemoryStream copyStream = new();
await memoryStream.CopyToAsync(copyStream).ConfigureAwait(true);
copyStream.Position = 0;

viewModels.ImageSource = ImageSource.FromStream(() => copyStream);

Also seeing this issue in our production android application. The rate is low but impact is high as the entire Android app crashes as a result of this issue. We do not see this issue on iOS, only on Android.

[bcaceiro]

Also facing the same issue. CV with images

[SamJealTe]

We started having this issue after upgrading our app to .net 8 just before giving it to testers. It was working fine with .net 7. Our job was converting an existing production xamarin app to maui. I think it was like 10-11 months ago. This issue was the biggest reason the whole project was cancelled and the maui app didn't go live. I am not exaggerating. It was decided it would take too much effort to keep maintaining maui apps.

[LeoJHarris]

This is still a big problem, it might as well be on par with #25224 which we also suffer from, for this issue though you cannot scroll down more then 10 items in a CollectionView with images until the app crashes.

[LeoJHarris]

App also crashes on simple page navigation. What is the update on this ticket??? This is blocking our ability to release a stable production version.
