Setting dynamic image in android based on a string

Issue

Consider I have two images image_name1.png, image_name2.png in drawable resources of android. Now I would like set image like below,

imageView.setImage(R.drawable.image_+"MyChoice"+.png);

where MyChoice can be name1 or name2 or some string

Is that possible, or do we have any solution to achieve that?

Solution

you can do by uri

String uri = "@drawable/imname"; //imname without extension

int imageResource = getResources().getIdentifier(uri, null, getPackageName()); //get image  resource

Drawable res = getResources().getDrawable(imageResource); // convert into drawble

imageView.setImageDrawable(res); // set as image
