hi I m currently testing the android coverflow
i tried to get images from the url and display it in the coverflow
i have successfully downloaded the images but cant put in the bitmap.
here is code which i tried…

    1.Create ImageAdater.java

    package com.sample.Adapters;
    
    import java.util.ArrayList;
    import android.app.Activity;
    import android.graphics.BitmapFactory;
    import android.graphics.drawable.BitmapDrawable;
    import android.view.View;
    import android.view.ViewGroup;
    import android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams;
    import android.widget.BaseAdapter;
    import android.widget.ImageView;
    public class ImageAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
         int mGalleryItemBackground;
         private Activity mContext;
         ArrayList<byte[]> imgarray ;
         public ImageAdapter(Activity c,ArrayList<byte[]> array) {
          mContext = c;
          this.imgarray = array ;
         }
         public int getCount() {
             return imgarray.size();
         }
    
         public Object getItem(int position) {
             return position;
         }
         public long getItemId(int position) {
             return position;
         }
         public View getView( final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
             ImageView i = new ImageView(mContext);
             i.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(imgarray.get(position),  0, imgarray.get(position).length));
             i.setLayoutParams(new com.sample.custom.CoverFlow.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT-20, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT-20));
             i.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER_INSIDE);
             BitmapDrawable drawable = (BitmapDrawable) i.getDrawable();
             drawable.setAntiAlias(true);
             return i;
         }
          public float getScale(boolean focused, int offset) { 
            /* Formula: 1 / (2 ^ offset) */ 
              return Math.max(0, 1.0f / (float)Math.pow(2, Math.abs(offset))); 
          } 
    
     }
    

    2.method for downloadimages

    public static byte[] getLogoImage(String url){
            try {
                URL imageUrl = new URL(url);
                URLConnection ucon = imageUrl.openConnection();
    
                InputStream is = ucon.getInputStream();
                BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is);
    
                ByteArrayBuffer baf = new ByteArrayBuffer(500);
                int current = 0;
                while ((current = bis.read()) != -1) {
                    baf.append((byte) current);
                }
    
                return baf.toByteArray();
            } catch (Exception e) {
                Log.d("ImageManager", "Error: " + e.toString());
            }
            return null;
        }
    

    3.Declare one ArrayList<byte[]> arraylistgallery = new ArrayList<byte[]>();

    here i assume that total coming images will be 10

    for(int i=0 ; i<10 ; i++){
    arraylistgallery.add(i,getLogoImage("http://www.psdgraphics.com/file/retro-tv-icon.jpg"));
    }
    

    downloadImages in AsyncTask And save In arraylistgallery ArrayList
    And pass like this

            coverFlow.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            coverFlow.setAdapter(new ImageAdapter(this,arraylistgallery));
            coverFlow.setSpacing(5);
            coverFlow.setSelection(arraylistgallery.size()-1, true);
            coverFlow.setAnimationDuration(1000);
