How to Open Java Images in Android

Instructions

1

Open the Eclipse software on your desktop and open the Android app project to open all of the files in the editor.

2

Double-click the "main.xml" file in the "resource" directory. This file is where you place your XML images and layout. Add the following code to add an image to the app:

  android:orientation="horizontal"
 android:layout_width="fill_parent"
 android:layout_height="fill_parent"
 android:layout_weight="1">

  android:background="@null"
 android:id="@+id/myimage"
 android:layout_width="wrap_content"
 android:layout_height="wrap_content"
 android:src="@drawable/myimage" />

The "myimage" ID is the image you want to use from the list of Java project images.

Open the view and display the image in your app. The following code opens the "main.xml" file and displays the image:

setContentView(R.layout.main);
