Not most efficient ways:

either you can create a single instance of you bitmap and set this in multiple imageviews created at runtime in a linear layout added in XMl.

or Override a view and draw the image using canvas multiple time at runtime.

Yes Dheeraj, You are right. I want the same as you are saying. – Krishna Suthar May 14 '12 at 11:48
I think, 1st option is matching to my requirement – Krishna Suthar May 14 '12 at 11:50
that is simple one, in that you need to create a Linear layout in XMl and get that by Id in java and add multiple image view with same image in a loop running as per count provided by you. Please let me know if there is any problem in this implementation as per your.requiment. – Dheeresh Singh May 14 '12 at 11:56

Hi Ankita, I don't want to repeat background image. I want to repeat ImageView. Please give me some idea. – Krishna Suthar May 14 '12 at 11:30
Can you give me some more hint ? why you need to repeat image in layout or what is the limit to repeation. – Dheeresh Singh May 14 '12 at 11:33
I want to create some design like it is in RatingBar. One image should be repeated horizontally for number of times given – Krishna Suthar May 14 '12 at 11:37
you need only images, no need to handle click of them. right ? – Dheeresh Singh May 14 '12 at 11:39
