Should i resize the bitmap before adding to a ImageView or let the ImageView resize the Bitmap?


i have a simple question: Should i resize a bigger bitmap before adding to a ImageView or let the ImageView resize the Bitmap? What's the right way, regarding performance?



Thanks

  1. Consider using scale for ImageView, and don't bother about resizing. You can scale an image like this, for example:

    image.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
    image.setMaxHeight(50);
    image.setMaxWidth(50);
    image.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER_INSIDE);

  2. The bigger the image, the bigger the size, I wouldn't think performance would really be affected but keep things efficient.

    You could also place different size images in the different folders for different resolutions:

    res/drawable-mdpi/my_icon.png // bitmap for medium density
    res/drawable-hdpi/my_icon.png // bitmap for high density
    res/drawable-xhdpi/my_icon.png // bitmap for extra high density


    Supporting different size screens

  3. we can resize the existing bitmap to any size using bitmap.createScaledBitmap use the below code.

    bmp=Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bmp,destBitmapWith, destBitmapHeight,true);

Wildcards in a hosts file

I want to setup my local development machine so that any requests for *.local are redirected to localhost . The idea is that as I develop multiple sites, I can just add vhosts to Apache called site1.local , site2.local etc, and have them all resolve to localhost , while Apache serves a different site accordingly.
