You will get the AnimatedGIFField.java file. Save it with proper name. and write like this….

GIFEncodedImage bitmapImage=(GIFEncodedImage)GIFEncodedImage.getEncodedImageResource("loading.gif");
AnimatedGIFField image_field=new AnimatedGIFField(bitmapImage);
add(image_field);

NOTE: If you are Using this “loading.gif” in >6.0 versions it gives exceptoin. For this you have to rename the file as “loading.agif“. Means for 7.0 version you have to use “loading.agif” not “loading.gif”. Rename that file and put in the res folder and change the file name as:

GIFEncodedImage.getEncodedImageResource(“loading.agif”)
