I am seeking a way to create circular images without 3rd party libraries.

I found this post that asked the same but had 0 answers.

In APIs post/equal to 21 (5.1), I usesetClipToOutline method on a view (because there is a bug where android:clipToOutline isn't working in the XML) and add a circular shaped drawable as background to the ImageView, but the app must support version 19 (4.4) onwards.

Is there any feature that allows me to achieve this? Maybe, in the support library?

Thanks.

did you found out any solution? – Febin Mathew Jul 16 '18 at 04:56
@FebinMathew Nope. I would suggest you to create a custom `ImageView` so that you don't have to handle different versions – JonZarate Jul 16 '18 at 15:50
