Downloaded Bitmap and ListView

[pixelpop]

I am attempting to download an image and use it in ListView. Can't quite get there:

Sub smImagesJobDone (Job As HttpJob)

   If Job.Success = True Then
      smImage = Job.GetBitmap
   End If
End Sub

Sub ...
...some processing...

ListView1.AddTwoLinesAndBitmap(hl_short, "", smImage)

End Sub

Of course, B4A wants the bitmap initialized, but Initialze expects a bitmap from a file and Initialize2 expects an InputStream, but ListView wants an bitmap. Is there a way to do this without writing the image to a file and then reading it back in ListView?

Your code looks correct. You do not need to initialize the bitmap if you call Job.GetBitmap. Make sure that you assign the bitmap only after it is downloaded.

I thought so, but it wasn't. Since my post, I have kept trying different things. If you would be kind enough, attached is my latest itteration. The remote source file is available for viewing, but here is a recap:

New Orleans imposes dusk-to-dawn curfew for Isaac - has a bitmap to download
Cat videos get their moment at Minn. film festival - has no bitmap to download, so uses a bitmap image in the Files repository
United says hardware issue caused outage - has no bitmap to download, so uses a bitmap image in the Files repository
In Arctic, Greenpeace picks new fight with old foe - has a bitmap to download
Fed survey: US economy grew during summer - has no bitmap to download, so uses a bitmap image in the Files repository
Republican convention is in full-throated roar - has a bitmap to download
Rapper Beanie Sigel faces weapon charges in Pan - has a bitmap to download
Official: Lindh, other Muslim inmates are defiant - has no bitmap to download, so uses a bitmap image in the Files repository
Levee in La. may be intentionally breached - has no bitmap to download, so uses a bitmap image in the Files repository
Kenyan police wounded in grenade attack - has a bitmap to download

If you caould take a look and see what I'm doing wrong, it would be a great help. Thanks.

Please use File - Export as zip. Some files are currently missing.

Here you go, Erel. Thanks for taking a look at this or me.

The problem is that Parser_EndElement is called before the images are downloaded (the images are downloaded asynchronously).

I recommend you to use CustomListView and first add the items and then when the images are downloaded set the images.

Thanks, Erel. I'll give that a try.
