Currently I'm successfully loading and displaying an image from a webserver using the code below.
URL imgURL = new URL("http://www.xxx.com/myimage.png"); URLConnection conn = aURL.openConnection(); conn.connect(); InputStream is = conn.getInputStream(); BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is); bm= BitmapFactory.decodeStream(bis); bis.close(); is.close(); canvas.drawBitmap(bm, 0, 0, null); What I want to do is load it from a resource. I've put myimage.png into res/drawable and referenced the bitmap as follows :- Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.myimage); However when I try to display it with canvas.drawBitmap(bm, 0, 0, null); I get a Force Close. What am I missing? Thanks, Simon. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
