Dynamically get drawables by ID
Use getResources().getIdentifier()
from your Context
(e.g., Activity
), but please cache the result if you will use it more than once. getIdentifier()
is implemented on Resources
.
For example:
int drawableId=getResources().getIdentifier("foo"+index, "drawable", getPackageName());
would return the value of R.drawable.fooN
, where N
is the number given by index
.
