Load drawable from arraylist using Lazy Image Loader or Universal Image Loader

Question

I just want to ask, is that possible to load drawable from arraylist inside arrays.xml using Lazy Image Loader or Universal Image Loader?

First load arraylist of drawable

....

ArrayList<Integer> sample_list = new ArrayList<Integer>();

....

Resources resources = getResources();
String packageName = getApplication().getPackageName();
final String[] extras = resources.getStringArray(R.array.sample);

    for (String extra : extras) {
       int res = resources.getIdentifier(extra, "drawable", packageName);
       if (res != 0) {
           sample_list.add(res);
    }
}

Set drawable to imageview

imageView.setImageResource(sample_list.get(position));

Last time I used like above, but I want to use Lazy Image Loader or Universal Image loader

I dont use any url to load image

So is that possible?

If possible is there any sample?

This method is not recommending for loading the images in drawable... You should use native method

Since u r using arraylist if u r saving the image name ids u can use like

String imageUri = "drawable://" + R.drawable.image;

(here this.R.drawable.image would be ur arraylist value.

NOTE:From: https://github.com/nostra13/Android-Universal-Image-Loader they are recommending to use native method if u want to show images from drawable

imageview.setImageResources(res id);

But I want to set image from arraylist which contains a lot of drawable. At the moment I'm using CustomAdapter to display it, but that's eating a lot of memory ... So that's not possible? – user3273595 Feb 12 '14 at 03:34
u can use image uri. i updated my ans, what is the necessory to use imageloader for this? – Tamilselvan Kalimuthu Feb 12 '14 at 03:37
So I need to define all of my drawable from arraylist? Can I do like String imageUri = "drawable://" -- get the id from arraylist based on it's position -- ? – user3273595 Feb 12 '14 at 03:42
first tel me what is the need to show drawable images using imageloader? – Tamilselvan Kalimuthu Feb 12 '14 at 03:43
As I said before, I tried to display using ArrayAdapter, but loads so slow, even I have decode the drawable to Bitmap. I'm trying to display a lot of drawable, all of drawable only have resolution 96x96 pixels. I just trying to find another way – user3273595 Feb 12 '14 at 03:49
This is the reason why I'm trying to use Imageloader [stackoverflow- question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12598701/what-is-the-maximum-number-of-items-in-gridview) – user3273595 Feb 12 '14 at 03:55
Okay u can save the id's into the arraylist and use the imageURI to get the uri inside the adapter and load the image using imageloader. – Tamilselvan Kalimuthu Feb 12 '14 at 04:01
If possible, could you please give an example how to get the id based on the position? Please ... – user3273595 Feb 12 '14 at 04:03
I mean like get imageURI from the id that I saved inside arraylist – user3273595 Feb 12 '14 at 04:08
u r using imageView.setImageResource(sample_list.get(position)); inside adapter now, instead of that inside adapter u r going to set the imageUri and use that imageUri with imageloader , can u understand? – Tamilselvan Kalimuthu Feb 12 '14 at 04:12
