  1. POAndroid: Help in adapting ListView adapter with an ImageLoader Class (LazyList)
    primarykey
    data
    text
    <p>I have a custom ListView adapter which implements an ImageThreadLoader class. Unfortunately the class doesn't enable a cache option-download the images from the web and save them as cache.</p> <p>And then I found this <a href="http://open-pim.com/tmp/LazyList.zip" rel="nofollow noreferrer">LazyList</a> or <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/541966/android-how-do-i-do-a-lazy-load-of-images-in-listview/3068012#3068012">here</a> really useful, it behaves quite the same like my ImageThreadLoader class but it's able to save the images as cache. So, I want to implement its ImageLoader class to my current custom ListView adapter. </p> <p>Unfortunately the structure of my codes and the Lazylist's is quite different, resulting some conflicts on my attempts. For example, the LazyList use array of strings for the image URL, in the other hand I use JSON as the source of image URL.</p> <p>That's why I need a help here to adapt my ListView adapter to this ImageLoader class.</p> <p>Here are the codes:</p> <p><strong>ImageLoader Class which I want implement to my custom ListView adapter:</strong></p> <pre><code>public class ImageLoader { //the simplest in-memory cache implementation.
