Question

I use a gridview to display all the images in user’s camera folder. I load all the images and build thumbnails by myself. After I did this, I saw that android allow to get directly the thumbnails. Here my issue starts: I didn’t find a working example for this.

To summarize, my issue is this: I want to get all the thumbnails in my camera folder and to display them in a grid. To simplify, I want to build a list of thumbnails (as bitmap, or, preferable path to thumbnail image) and the full path to corresponding image.

Someone can help me, please?
