Show Image View from file path?

Question

I need to show an image by using the file name only, not from the resource id.

ImageView imgView = new ImageView(this);
imgView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawa         


        

Answer 1

You can also use:

    File imgFile = new  File(“filepath”);
    if(imgFile.exists())
    {
        ImageView myImage = new ImageView(this);
        myImage.setImageURI(Uri.fromFile(imgFile));

    }

This does the bitmap decoding implicit for you.
