How to display image from URL in android ?

Now we have to explain how to display image from URL. ImageView is used to display image in android. Here we use AsyncTask for loading image from URL.  Now lets we explain it with Example.

Above is our final Screen shot  display image from URL.


 Create new Android Project AndroidAdvanceDisplayImageURL.
 Layout file main.xml looks like following.

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/hello"
        android:text />

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/my_image"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent" />

</LinearLayout>

 -> Here we take imageview to display image. Now coding part.


  AndroidAdvanceImageLoad.java

 public class AndroidAdvanceImageLoad extends Activity {

    ImageView my_img;
    Bitmap mybitmap;
    ProgressDialog pd;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        new DisplayImageFromURL((ImageView) findViewById(R.id.my_image))
                .execute("http://www.tmonews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/androidfigure.jpg");

    }
    private class DisplayImageFromURL extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap> {
        ImageView bmImage;

        @Override
        protected void onPreExecute() {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            super.onPreExecute();
            pd = new ProgressDialog(AndroidAdvanceImageLoad.this);
            pd.setMessage("Loading...");
            pd.show();
        }
        public DisplayImageFromURL(ImageView bmImage) {
            this.bmImage = bmImage;
        }
        protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... urls) {
            String urldisplay = urls[0];
            Bitmap mIcon11 = null;
            try {
                InputStream in = new java.net.URL(urldisplay).openStream();
                mIcon11 = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(in);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                Log.e("Error", e.getMessage());
                e.printStackTrace();
            }

            return mIcon11;

        }
        protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {
            bmImage.setImageBitmap(result);
            pd.dismiss();
        }
    }
}

  -> Here we create DisplayImageFromURL class which loads image from URL and display it on imageview. It take 2 arguments one is image id and another is Image URL from which you display image.
