In android how to set navigation drawer header image and name programmatically in class file?

Question

In android studio 1.4.1, I have created new Navigation Drawer Project which is default.My issue is in this project there is nav_header_main.xml file which is for navigation

Answer 1

EDIT : Works with design library upto 23.0.1 but doesn't work on 23.1.0

In main layout xml you will have NavigationView defined, in that use app:headerLayout to set the header view.

And the @layout/nav_drawer_header will be the place holder of the image and texts.

nav_drawer_header.xml

And in your main class, you can take handle of Imageview and TextView as like normal other views.

TextView navHeaderTitle = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.navHeaderTitle);
navHeaderTitle.setText("Application Name");

TextView navHeaderSubTitle = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.navHeaderSubTitle);
navHeaderSubTitle.setText("Application Caption");

Hope this helps.
