Android:The easiest way to load image from URL

The easiest way to download image from URL is to use method Drawable.createFromStream:

main.xml:

<linearlayout android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01" 
android:layout_height="fill_parent" 
android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<imageview android:id="@+id/ImageView1" 
android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
android:layout_width="wrap_content">
</imageview></linearlayout>

Java file:

import java.io.InputStream;
import java.net.URL;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.graphics.drawable.Drawable;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ImageView;

public class ImageFromUrlExample extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        ImageView imgView =(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.ImageView1);
        Drawable drawable = loadImageFromWeb("http://www.example.com/android.png");
        imgView.setImageDrawable(drawable);

    }

   private Drawable loadImageFromWeb(String url)
   {
  try
  {
   InputStream is = (InputStream) new URL(url).getContent();
   Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(is, "src name");
   return d;
  }catch (Exception e) {
   System.out.println("Exc="+e);
   return null;
  }
 }
}
