Load image into TextView's background

Question

I have the following TextView layout:

<TextView
    android:layout_width="10dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:drawableTop="@drawable/ic_launcher" >

I inflate this layout in code, and want to use Android-Universal-Image-Loader to load the image into drawableTop. But, as I understand, there's no way to get backgroundTop's ImageView from TextView, thus I can't use AUIL. Is there any way to get ImageView for background, and if not, how should I modify the layout so that it will have ImageView but will look the same as the original layout?

You can use listener (ImageLoadingListener) for that. Put following code in onLoadingComplete(...)

void onLoadingComplete(String imageUri, View view, Bitmap loadedImage) {
    Drawable topImage = new BitmapDrawable(loadedImage);
    textView.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(null, topImage, null null);
}

                TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.TV);
                Drawable top = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.icon) ;
                tv.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(null, top, null, null) ;
 //             tv.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(left, top, right, bottom)

Use a RelativeLayout with ImageView and TextView then manipulate ImageView

<RelativeLayout
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/imageView1"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_alignRight="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_alignTop="@+id/textView1"
        android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="TextView" />
</RelativeLayout>
