Question

I’ve done Gallery of images displayed on emulator by static(i.e images from drawable folder).Now i need to add some images into the list of gallery, dynamically from the local path(for ex.from E:/anim.jpeg like that).How can i do that?Thanks..

My gallery code is shown below..

public class GalleryAct extends Activity {

private Gallery gallery;
private ImageView imgView;

private Integer[] Imgid = {
        R.drawable.img1, R.drawable.img2, R.drawable.img3, R.drawable.img4, R.drawable.img5, R.drawable.img6, R.drawable.img7,
        R.drawable.img1, R.drawable.img2, R.drawable.img3, R.drawable.img4, R.drawable.img5, R.drawable.img6, R.drawable.img7
};

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    imgView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.ImageView01);    
    imgView.setImageResource(Imgid[0]);

     gallery = (Gallery) findViewById(R.id.examplegallery);
     gallery.setAdapter(new AddImgAdp(this));

     gallery.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int position, long id) {
            imgView.setImageResource(Imgid[position]); 
        }
    });

}

public class AddImgAdp extends BaseAdapter {
    int GalItemBg;
    private Context cont;

    public AddImgAdp(Context c) {
        cont = c;
        TypedArray typArray = obtainStyledAttributes(R.styleable.GalleryTheme);
        GalItemBg = typArray.getResourceId(R.styleable.GalleryTheme_android_galleryItemBackground, 0);
        typArray.recycle();
    }

    public int getCount() {
        return Imgid.length;
    }

    public Object getItem(int position) {
        return position;
    }

    public long getItemId(int position) {
        return position;
    }

    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
        ImageView imgView = new ImageView(cont);

        imgView.setImageResource(Imgid[position]);
        imgView.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(80, 70));
        imgView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
        imgView.setBackgroundResource(GalItemBg);

        return imgView;
    }
}

}

Write the file path where the image is saved.

Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() gives path of sdcard.

  File f1 = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
                + File.separator + "test2.png");


 BitmapFactory.Options o = new BitmapFactory.Options();
 o.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
 Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(new FileInputStream(f), null, o);

 imgView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);

If your image is too big size than bitmap will give error so for that you have to write below code to resize image. Pass the file in below function

 Bitmap bitmap = decodeFile(f1);
 imgView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);

 private Bitmap decodeFile(File f) {
    try {
        // Decode image size
        BitmapFactory.Options o = new BitmapFactory.Options();
        o.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
        BitmapFactory.decodeStream(new FileInputStream(f), null, o);

        // The new size we want to scale to
        final int REQUIRED_SIZE = 150;

        // Find the correct scale value. It should be the power of 2.
        int width_tmp = o.outWidth, height_tmp = o.outHeight;
        int scale = 1;
        while (true) {
            if (width_tmp / 2 < REQUIRED_SIZE || height_tmp / 2 < REQUIRED_SIZE)
                break;
            width_tmp /= 2;
            height_tmp /= 2;
            scale *= 2;
        }

        // Decode with inSampleSize
        BitmapFactory.Options o2 = new BitmapFactory.Options();
        o2.inSampleSize = scale;
        return BitmapFactory.decodeStream(new FileInputStream(f), null, o2);

    } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
    }
    return null;
}
