NullPointerException while setting Image in imageView from Bitmap?

Question

I am Using APK Expansion File from http://developer.android.com/guide/market/expansion-files.html

CODE :

String[] path= getAPKExpansionFiles(this,2,0);
ZipResourceFile expansionFile;
try {
        expansionFile = new ZipResourceFile(path[0]);
        InputStream fileStream = expansionFile.getInputStream("assets/Tablet/Chester_the_cat/chester_the_cat_2.png");
        Bitmap bit=BitmapFactory.decodeStream(fileStream);
            iv_new=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.iv_new);
            iv_new.setImageBitmap(bit);

and m getting this NullPointerException in this line

   iv_new.setImageBitmap(bit);

and in XML my ImageView is :

 <ImageView android:id="@+id/iv_new"
     android:layout_width="wrap_content"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

Please debug is iv_new is null or bit is null there at that line ? — Dheeresh Singh

Did you call the setContentView(View) with the layout which contains the ImageView?

Please check this again, because he can not find the view in the inflated layout. (The findViewById returns null means this view you want isn't inflated)

is it possible to load Bitmap content in webview ?

I guess yes, you should pass the location of the bitmap as url. But you shouldn't do that. Try figuring out what you did wrong :)
