I use Google Chart API to build chart’s in my app.

In my case I need to download image on each chart. I use AsyncTask for this.

To monitor download procces I use Progress dialog. But got a errors in this class of AsyncTask.

execute of AsyncTask:

new loadChart(ChartAct.this,img).execute();

and code of AsyncTask:

public class loadChart extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> {
    private ImageView img;
    private Context con;
    private ProgressDialog dialog;

    public loadChart(Context context, ImageView img1) {
        this.img = img1;
        this.con = context;
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPreExecute() {
        dialog = ProgressDialog.show(con, "Connecting:",
                "Loading. Please wait...", true);
        super.onPreExecute();
    }

    @Override
    protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) {
        final Bitmap bitmap = DownloadImage();
        img.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPostExecute(Void result) {
        dialog.dismiss();
        super.onPostExecute(result);
    }

    private static InputStream OpenHttpConnection(String urlString)
            throws IOException {

        Log.d("palval", "OpenHttpConnection");
        InputStream in = null;
        int response = -1;

        URL url = new URL(urlString);
        URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();

        if (!(conn instanceof HttpURLConnection))
            throw new IOException("Not an HTTP connection");

        try {
            HttpURLConnection httpConn = (HttpURLConnection) conn;
            httpConn.setAllowUserInteraction(false);
            httpConn.setInstanceFollowRedirects(true);
            httpConn.setRequestMethod("GET");
            httpConn.connect();

            response = httpConn.getResponseCode();

            if (response == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
                in = httpConn.getInputStream();
            }

            String res = Integer.toString(response);
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            throw new IOException("Error connecting");
        }
        return in;
    }

    public static Bitmap DownloadImage() {
        Log.d("palval", "DownloadImage");
        Bitmap bitmap = null;
        InputStream in = null;
        try {

            in = OpenHttpConnection("https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs=440x220&chd=t:60,40&cht=p3&chl=Hello|World");
            bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(in);
            in.close();
        } catch (IOException e1) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e1.printStackTrace();
        }
        return bitmap;
    }

}

You cannot set an image in doInBackground() make it return a bitmap and set it in the onPostExecute()

public class loadChart extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Bitmap> {
    private ImageView img;
    private Context con;
    private ProgressDialog dialog;

    public loadChart(Context context, ImageView img1) {
        this.img = img1;
        this.con = context;
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPreExecute() {
        dialog = ProgressDialog.show(con, "Connecting:",
                "Loading. Please wait...", true);
        super.onPreExecute();
    }

    @Override
    protected Bitmap doInBackground(Void... params) {
        final Bitmap bitmap = DownloadImage();
        return bitmap;
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {
        dialog.dismiss();
        img.setImageBitmap(result);
    }
