how to set a default picture in an imageview in a list in android?

I want to show a default picture when the result is null and here is my try:
public static Bitmap getBitmapFromURL(String src) {
try {
URL url = new URL(src);
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.connect();
InputStream input = connection.getInputStream();
Bitmap myBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(input);
connection.disconnect();
return myBitmap;
} catch (IOException e) {
// tasvirdimg.setImageResource(R.drawable.p3_books);
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
}
}
a class to use getBitmapFromURL:
class RetrievePic extends AsyncTask<String, String, Bitmap>{
#Override
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... urls) {
String url = urls[0];
return JSONCommands.getBitmapFromURL(url);
}
}
execute RetrievePic class in ListAdapter:
RetrievePic retPic = new RetrievePic();
retPic.execute(JSONCommands.firstURL + MainActivity.books_array.get(position).tasvir);
Bitmap img = null;
try {
img = retPic.get();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
tasvirlimg.setImageResource(R.drawable.p3_books);
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (ExecutionException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
tasvirlimg.setImageResource(R.drawable.p3_books);
e.printStackTrace();
}
tasvirlimg.setImageBitmap(img);
when the picture is null it doesn't show any thing but it should show the default picture which is R.drawable.p3_books. thanks to your helps.

what you want to do is in your implementation of your adapter's getView() method, something like this,
...
final imageView = ...;
imageView.setImageBitmap(defaultBitmap);
new AsyncTask<Void,Void,Bitmap>() {
public Bitmap doInBackground(Void... params) {
// get bitmap from `net, or return null if failure
}
public void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {
if (result != null) {
imageView.setBitmap(result);
}
}
}.execute();
this way, the default is set. if you happen to get the network result, change the default.

You could try this:
if(img == null)
{
tasvirlimg.setImageDrawable(R.drawable.p3_books);
}
else
{
tasvirlimg.setImageBitmap(img);
}

Why not set the default pic of item in xml and then the default pic would be replaced when result is not null
<ImageView
...
android:src="#drawable/p3_books"
/>
EDIT:
class RetrievePic extends AsyncTask<String, String, Bitmap>{
final image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.limg_tasvir);
#Override
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... urls) {
String url = urls[0];
return JSONCommands.getBitmapFromURL(url);
}
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
image.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.p3_books);
}
});
}
}

Converting a String to an Integer in Android

I'm trying to use WallpaperManager in a ViewPager. I've got a button which is supposed to set the current image in the ViewPager to wallpaper. My problem comes with the line of code wallpManager.setResource(newInt);... the integer it comes up with is always 0 (zero), and so the app crashes and LogCat says there's no Resource at ID #0x0. As a test to see if I'm getting the correct image URL I've done this:
String newStr = images[position];
CharSequence cs = newStr;
Toast.makeText(UILPager.this, cs, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
And the resulting Toast shows the correct image URL. I can't figure out how to convert the URL which is in the form of "http://www.example.com/image.jpg" to an Integer so that the WallpaperManager can use it. Here's what the whole button code looks like:
wallp_BTN.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
WallpaperManager wallpManager = WallpaperManager.getInstance(getApplicationContext());
String newStr = images[position];
int newInt = 0;
try{
newInt = Integer.parseInt(newStr);
} catch(NumberFormatException nfe) {
}
CharSequence cs = newStr;
try {
wallpManager.setResource(newInt);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
Toast.makeText(UILPager.this, cs, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});

Set wallpaper from URL
try {
URL url = new URL("http://developer.android.com/assets/images/dac_logo.png");
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(url.openStream());
wallpaperManager.setBitmap(bitmap);
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Enjoy =)

A method wallpaperManager.setResource() requires resource id from your application. Example: I've ImageView with id "myImage" then call the method will look like as wallpaperManager.setResource(R.id.myImage).
In your case your id not valid.

Instead of wallpManager.setResource(0) you should use the wallpManager.setResource(R.drawable.yourimage) since it's expecting a drawable and there is none in your app with id = 0.
In your code
String newStr = images[position];
int newInt = 0;
try{
newInt = Integer.parseInt(newStr);
} catch(NumberFormatException nfe) {
}
Since newStr is never a number, always a url so NumberFormatException is caught always. Hence the value of newInt is always initialized to 0. Hence the error.

I realized that I have to download the image before I can set it as wallpaper! Thanks for your help AndroidWarrior and Owl. When I get the download code worked out, I'll post it. Owl showed me how to download the wallpaper:
//--- Wallpaper button
wallp_BTN.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
try {
vpURL = new URL(images[position]);
} catch (MalformedURLException e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
}
WallpaperManager wallpManager = WallpaperManager.getInstance(getApplicationContext());
try {
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(vpURL.openStream());
wallpManager.setBitmap(bitmap);
Toast.makeText(UILPager.this, "The wallpaper has been set!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
//--- END Wallpaper button
... and I also figured out how to download the ViewPager image as well (I need to do both in different areas of my app):
//--- Wallpaper button
wallp_BTN.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
String vpURLStr = images[position];
GetVPImageTask downloadVPImageTask = new GetVPImageTask();
downloadVPImageTask.execute(new String[] { vpURLStr });
}
});
//--- END Wallpaper button
//--- Download ViewPager Image AsyncTask
private class GetVPImageTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap> {
ProgressDialog getVPImageDia;
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
getVPImageDia = new ProgressDialog(UILNPPager.this);
getVPImageDia.setMessage("Grabbing the image...");
getVPImageDia.setIndeterminate(false);
getVPImageDia.show();
}
#Override
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... urls) {
Bitmap map = null;
for (String url : urls) {
map = downloadImage(url);
}
return map;
}
// Sets the Bitmap returned by doInBackground
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {
try {
getVPImageDia.dismiss();
getVPImageDia = null;
} catch (Exception e) {
// nothing
}
Toast.makeText(UILNPPager.this, "The image be Downloaded!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
//downloaded_iv.setImageBitmap(result);
}
// Creates Bitmap from InputStream and returns it
private Bitmap downloadImage(String url) {
Bitmap bitmap = null;
InputStream stream = null;
BitmapFactory.Options bmOptions = new BitmapFactory.Options();
bmOptions.inSampleSize = 1;
try {
stream = getHttpConnection(url);
bitmap = BitmapFactory.
decodeStream(stream, null, bmOptions);
stream.close();
} catch (IOException e1) {
e1.printStackTrace();
}
return bitmap;
}
// Makes HttpURLConnection and returns InputStream
private InputStream getHttpConnection(String urlString)
throws IOException {
InputStream stream = null;
URL url = new URL(urlString);
URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
try {
HttpURLConnection httpConnection = (HttpURLConnection) connection;
httpConnection.setRequestMethod("GET");
httpConnection.connect();
if (httpConnection.getResponseCode() == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
stream = httpConnection.getInputStream();
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return stream;
}
}

I am trying to fetch the image from url and load in imageView, but I cannot encode the url string, please let me know how to encode this.
Please find the code & url used for your reference.

Use this Code it will fetch the image from server
String URL = "http://images.pcmac.org/SiSFiles/Schools/TN/JacksonMadisonCounty/RoseHillMiddle/Uploads/Locations/%7BB690E93E-F7C9-48AF-B72A-BFF944FA6D4A%7D_104_9169.JPG";

return bitmap;
}

FYI, URLEncoder.encode(String) has been deprecated.
Reference:
http://developer.android.com/reference/java/net/URLEncoder.html

You can encode the url as below:
String URL = "http://images.pcmac.org/SiSFiles/Schools/TN/JacksonMadisonCounty/RoseHillMiddle/Uploads/Locations/%7BB690E93E-F7C9-48AF-B72A-BFF944FA6D4A%7D_104_9169.JPG";
String encodeUrl=URLEncoder.encode(URL, "utf-8");
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();
final String msg = e1.getMessage();
handler.post(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "" + msg, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
return bitmap;
}

I have create example for How to display image from URL. Use that example it works for me and i also check it by replace you image url.

Please Use below code for download and display image into imageview.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
ImageView my_img;
Bitmap mybitmap;
ProgressDialog pd;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ImageView mImgView1 = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.mImgView1);
DownloadImageFromURL mDisImgFromUrl = new DownloadImageFromURL(mImgView1);
mDisImgFromUrl.execute("http://images.pcmac.org/SiSFiles/Schools/TN/JacksonMadisonCounty/RoseHillMiddle/Uploads/Locations/%7BB690E93E-F7C9-48AF-B72A-BFF944FA6D4A%7D_104_9169.JPG");
}
private class DownloadImageFromURL extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap> {
ImageView bmImage;
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onPreExecute();
pd = new ProgressDialog(MainActivity.this);
pd.setMessage("Loading...");
pd.show();
}
public DownloadImageFromURL(ImageView bmImage) {
this.bmImage = bmImage;
}
protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... urls) {
String urldisplay = urls[0];

try {
InputStream in = new java.net.URL(urldisplay).openStream();
mIcon11 = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(in);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("Error", e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();

Android | AsyncTask - Code is returning incorrect type

I've been scratching my head at this for too long - any insight would be very beneficial.
This is my first time playing with AsyncTask and I'm a bit confused on what I'm doing wrong here - Eclipse is stating: "This method must return a result of type object" However; I can't see how it's not - unless I'm completely missing something here.
I'm trying to download an image and display it on imageView1 (Also, if you're able to save some time and tell me if I'm running my postExecute code correctly or not that would be great :) )
private class DownloadImageTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Object> {
protected Object doInBackground(String... urls) {
try {
URL url = new URL(urls[0]);
Object content = url.getContent();
return content;
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
protected void onPostExecute(Object result) {
InputStream is = (InputStream) result;
Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(is, "src");
ImageView imgView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
imgView.setImageDrawable(d);
}
}

You have not returned anything when you are catching exception thats why it is showing message "This method must return a result of type object" .Please return any object or null while catching exception.
Moreover if you are getting the drawable than your postexecute method is right.
Your code should look like this:
private class DownloadImageTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Object> {
protected Object doInBackground(String... urls) {
try {
URL url = new URL(urls[0]);
Object content = url.getContent();
return content;
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;//added
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;//added
}
}
protected void onPostExecute(Object result) {
InputStream is = (InputStream) result;
Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(is, "src");
ImageView imgView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageViewMaricoLogo);
imgView.setImageDrawable(d);
}
}

I guess you only want to pass the String(URL) to the AsynTask so your code should be pretty easy like this,
private class DownloadImageTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Void>
{
#Override
protected Void doInBackground(String... urls) {
try {
URL url = new URL(urls[0]);
Object content = url.getContent();
return content;
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Void result) {
InputStream is = (InputStream) result;
Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(is, "src");
ImageView imgView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
imgView.setImageDrawable(d);
}
}

Your doInBackground() isn't returning anything, that's why you're getting that error. This happened to me earlier on, set it to return an Object that you will use in onPostExecute or null and it should work. Good luck

Your code should be like this..
private class DownloadImageTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {//Notice i changed the Void, and String around in the parameters
protected Object doInBackground(String... urls) {
try {
URL url = new URL(urls[0]);
Object content = url.getContent();
return content;
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
InputStream is = (InputStream) result;
Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(is, "src");
ImageView imgView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
imgView.setImageDrawable(d);
}
}
EDIT:
I changed the Object to a String. Is this the Object you are trying to return?

How can I fetch a large image from a url?

I used the code below to fetch the image from a url but it doesn't working for large images.
Am I missing something when fetching that type of image?
imgView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.ImageView01);
imgView.setImageBitmap(loadBitmap("http://www.360technosoft.com/mx4.jpg"));
//imgView.setImageBitmap(loadBitmap("http://sugardaddydiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/how_do_i_get_sugar_daddy.jpg"));
//setImageDrawable("http://sugardaddydiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/holding-money-copy.jpg");
//Drawable drawable = LoadImageFromWebOperations("http://www.androidpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/android.png");
//imgView.setImageDrawable(drawable);
/* try {
ImageView i = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.ImageView01);
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream((InputStream)new URL("http://sugardaddydiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/holding-money-copy.jpg").getContent());
i.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
System.out.println("hello");
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("hello");
}*/
}
protected Drawable ImageOperations(Context context, String string,
String string2) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
try {
InputStream is = (InputStream) this.fetch(string);
Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(is, "src");
return d;
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
}

You're trying to download the Large Image from within the UI Thread....This will cause an ANR (Application not Responding)
Use AsyncTask to download the images, that way, a seperate thread will be used for the download and your UI Thread wont lock up.

see this good example that loads image from server.
blog.sptechnolab.com/2011/03/04/android/android-load-image-from-url/.

If you want to download the image very quickly then you can use AQuery which is similar to JQuery just download the android-query.0.15.7.jar
Import the jar file and add the following snippet
AQuery aq = new AQuery(this);
aq.id(R.id.image).image("http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Q95xppgGoeo/TJzGNaeO8zI/AAAAAAAAADE/kez1bBRmQTk/s1600/Sri-Ram.jpg");
// Here R.id.image is id of your ImageView
// This method will not give any exception
// Dont forgot to add Internet Permission

pd = ProgressDialog.show(this, "Please Wait", "Downloading Image");
DownloadWebPageTask task = new DownloadWebPageTask();
task.execute(new String[] { image_URL });
// You can also give more images in string array
}
private class DownloadWebPageTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap>
