Question

I have this code:

translateRight("iv1"); //iv1 is an id of an imageView

    private void translateRight(String st){

    ImageView img = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.st);
        Animation a = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.translate_right);
        img.startAnimation(a);
    }

I have “translateRight” that is a method that show an animation, but at this method I should pass a resource id; I tried with a string but it don’t work, what can I do?

Answer 1

Resource id – is an integer value. Just pass an int:

private void translateRight(int resource){
    ImageView img = (ImageView) findViewById(resource);
    //stuff
}
