How to take a screen shot with status bar contents in android application?

Viewed 10098

I have a requirement that I have to take a screenshot of the current window in android. This is the code am using,

View rootView = getWindow().getDecorView().findViewById(android.R.id.content);
View screenView = rootView.getRootView();
screenView.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(screenView.getDrawingCache());
screenView.setDrawingCacheEnabled(false);

by using this I could get the application screen shot, but the status bar contents are missing (bluetooth icon, battery status etc). How can I take a screenshot of the current Android phone window programmatically (including status bar contents)? Is it possible?
