Question

I have an ImageView that is set to cam.jpg in my XML Layout code:

            <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/imvCover"
            android:layout_width="130dp"
            android:layout_height="180dp"
            android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="15dp"
            android:layout_marginRight="15dp"
            android:scaleType="fitCenter"
            android:src="@drawable/cam"
             />

Is there a way, in my Java code, to find out if my imvCover is currently displaying @drawable/cam or something else? Something like this:

if (imvCover.displayedImageResource == R.id.cam)
   // do something
else
   // do something else

Thanks.

try to use setTag() and getTag() methods like this :

when setting the drawable resource to your imageView do like this :

img.setBackgroundResource(R.id.img1);
img.setTag(R.id.img1);

and to find out which drawable is setted to your imageview , just get the tag ans test it :

if(((int)img.getTag() ) == R.id.img1) {
   //do stuff1 here 
}
if(((int)img.getTag() ) == R.id.img2) {
   //do stuff2 here 
}
