如何使用Image_path和BitmapDrawable更改背景？

Question

I want to change the background for Activity.

I choose a picture in Fragment .

Use intent and transmit the path to Activity.

The Activity receive the path but when I set the background for the Activity , it crash.

The following code is in Activity:

 public class Splash extends Activity {

    public static final String BACKGROUND_PATH = "path";
    private String Background_path;
    private static final String TAG = "MJPEG Player" ;
    private RelativeLayout relativeLayout;

    @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState) ;


        // Hides the titlebar
        this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE) ;

        final Intent intent = getIntent();
        Background_path = intent.getStringExtra(BACKGROUND_PATH);
        Log.i(TAG, "Background_path = " + Background_path);

        relativeLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.splash);

        if(Background_path != null) {
            BitmapDrawable background = new BitmapDrawable(Background_path);
            relativeLayout.setBackgroundDrawable(background);
            Log.i(TAG, "background = " + background);
        }

    setContentView(R.layout.splash) ;

And the error log is like the following:

The tw.com.a_i_t.IPCamViewer.Splash.onCreate(Splash.java:47) is relativeLayout.setBackgroundDrawable(background);

Does someone can teach me how to solve this problem ?

Answer 1

The reason is

 setContentView(R.layout.splash) ;

Then initialize views. But you have it at the last

setContentView(R.layout.splash) ; // first set the layout to the activity
relativeLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.splash); // then initialize your views
