Android :: How To Display Images From Web In ListView?
Apr 14, 2010
Android: How to display images from the web in a ListView? I have the following code to display image from a URL in an ImageView:
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.graphics.BitmapFactory;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ImageView;
public class HttpImgDownload extends ListActivity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main);
Bitmap bitmap = // DownloadImage(
// "http://www.streetcar.org/mim/cable/images/cable-01.jpg");
DownloadImage( "http://s.twimg.com/a/1258674567/images/default_profile_3_normal.png");
ImageView img = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.img); img.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
} private InputStream OpenHttpConnection(String urlString) throws IOException
{ InputStream in = null; int response = -1;
URL url = new URL(urlString); URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
if (!(conn instanceof HttpURLConnection)) throw new IOException("Not an HTTP connection");
try{ HttpURLConnection httpConn = (HttpURLConnection) conn;
httpConn.setAllowUserInteraction(false); httpConn.setInstanceFollowRedirects(true);
httpConn.setRequestMethod("GET"); httpConn.connect();
response = httpConn.getResponseCode();
if (response == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) { in = httpConn.getInputStream();
} } catch (Exception ex) { throw new IOException("Error connecting");
} return in; } private Bitmap DownloadImage(String URL) {
Bitmap bitmap = null; InputStream in = null;
try { in = OpenHttpConnection(URL);
bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(in);
in.close(); } catch (IOException e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block e1.printStackTrace();
} return bitmap; } }
Now how can I display images in an array in a listview? Here's how I want to display the images:

I have several images present in different folders in my sdcard. I would like to display a list of thumbnails. So what I have done is while rendering any row in the list I read the file in an input stream, get the byte array, decode it to obtain a bitmap and set it in an imageview.
So far so good. But when I scroll the list, the list scrolls in jerks. I believe this is because decoding a bitmap from byte array takes some time. What I would like to know is that, is there any optimization which I can do to improve the performance, or better still is there any better method to achieve what I want ?

I am building a android aplication which will be consuming a json file from the internet. This json file contains a list of news from a particular website. Each json object contains information such like title, summary, descripition and web links for the news thumbnail and the original image.
I will be displaying in a listview three information: the news thumbnail, the title and the summary. Here resides my problem. I dont want to load all thumbnails from the internet if they wont be displayed. What I am trying to say is that why download a thumbnail from the 30th news if the user wont scroll down the image. So, i will, initially only download the thumnails from those news that are being displayed in the screen and when the user scrolls down to see more news, as soon as the list item appers to the screen i want to download the image and then display.
Is there a way to achieve this? Is it possible to find out if the list item is on the screen? I have been searching all over the internet for a solution for this but i am running out of ideas.

I am wondering if which of the two is better in loading images in a listview from web, is it by batch through some number of threads that are running simultaneously or one by one through thread queue? I have noticed (but I don't know if that is really the implementation) from the youtube app that the images are loaded by batch and it is kinda fast. Even for not only loading images but also requesting some data from the web as well. Does anyone have an idea?

I'd like to create a list with an image on the right side of each entry - and preferably have a separate callback if the image is clicked.
much like the contact call-listview - can click on either the name (edit) or the phone icon on the right (call).
just wondering what kind of list and/or adapter i have to use.

I have a question regarding 9 patch images. Is it possible to download 9 patch png files from a webserver then display it as a background of a layout while keeping the information inside the file like the stretchable pixel? I have tried using a 9 patch image coming from the resource drawable directory of my project and it displays correctly...stretching only those pixels marked as stretchable but when I tried to download a 9 patch image from my web server then the application will use the downloaded 9 patch image the stretchable pixels does not take effect..i mean instead of stretching only those pixels that where marked as stretchable it stretched the whole image.

I want to write code to display the images only from a particular folder in sd card. e.g a folder named b'day(/sdcard/pictures/b'day). I have the following code, but it displays all the images in the sd card. What should I add/change in the following code to accomplish my objective.
private void displayGallery() { Uri uri = MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
String[] projection = { MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns._ID,
// The columns we want
MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.IMAGE_ID, MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.KIND };
String selection = MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.KIND + "=" + // Select only mini's MediaStore.Images.Thumbnails.MINI_KIND;
mCursor = this.managedQuery(uri, projection, selection, null, null);
if (mCursor != null) { mCursor.moveToFirst();
ImageAdapter adapter = new ImageAdapter (mCursor, this);
Log.i(TAG, "displayGallery(), adapter = " + adapter.getCount());
mGallery.setAdapter(adapter); mGallery.setOnItemClickListener(this);
} }

I would be retrieving values from SQLite database and have to display it in a list view. So how should I pass the images out from the database into the list view (in fact, I only save the image uri in db). I am able to save and retrieve images individually and display it on the screen. But how do I pass a bitmap and display it in a list view.

i am quite new to android and i was wondering how i could go about adding a listview with different images and text. What i am trying to achieve is a listview with four rows which have a different Icon? I don't know how to set that up using the xml layout provided. should i build this using different multiple linear layout or is there a better way to go about it?.. All the examples i have seen all seem to be using one particular Icon and no much detail of the xml layout.

I try to implements lazy loading of images in a listview. There is no android features to make this, so I should implement it by myself. Have anyone already done this? Take the solution care of scrolling and lazy loading new images and stop to load not more necessary images?

I trying a hand at ListViews and my current experiment is aimed at displaying some data in a ListView. The data to be displayed in each row is simple: an image and some text. The images come from a remote server and the textual data is hardcoded. I have a class that downloads images using AsyncTask and caches the list of images fetched as SoftReferences in a LinkedHashMap. I am also passing a reference of the view to this class, so when the image download/cache read is complete the class will set appropriate Bitmap in the view.

I implemented the lazy-loading images in my ListView. I use a AsyncTask to download the image from the internet and bind it to the ImageView in the UIThread. It's working except that when I scroll the ListView vary fast, the downloaded images sometimes are binded into the wrong items in the list.I guess the problem is from the reuse of convertView in the BaseAdapter. Code...

Here are 4 references that I have found for lazy-loading images into a listview in Android. The idea is to display a placeholder image, get the actual image in the background, update the ImageView in the list when the image is available. I've tried to do this in the simplest way possible using an AsyncTask in an Adapter. The outline of that approach is below. Is it flawed? Is there an agreed approach to handling this common task? Code...

I would like to draw custom images within a ListView, for this I have created a ListView and an ArrayAdapter object. I have specified that each element of the ListView will be an ImageView which is specified by an XML layout file. Now, I would like to draw a custom graphic in each cell depending upon certain paramters.

I've got the below screen that contains some images (6 per visible page). Scrolling up and down seems quite laggy to me. It's like it's rendering the images again. Scrolling back up seems worse than scrolling down.
Anyone know how to increase performance in such an area to create a nice smooth scroll?
Update: The images and text is all retrieved from my SQLite database. The list is created using SimpleCursorAdapter.
