How do I put a File from my Cache directory in an ImageView on Android?

Question

I have the following code to get my JPG file from a directory on my Android device:

File f = new File(cacheDir, fn);

How do I take f and put it in an ImageView?

ImageView imgView = (ImageView)header.findViewById(R.id.imvCover);

// what call do I make here?
// this obviously is not correct and just for example.
imgView.setToFile(f); 

Answer 1

try this. Since you are having a file object use the below code.

This may help you

Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(f.getAbsolutePath());
imgView.setImageBitmap(bmp);

Answer 2

I think this is correct, no?

Bitmap b = decodeFile(f);
imgView.setImageBitmap(b);
