Populating image switcher dynamically android

Question

How can I populate the image switcher dynamically, when I have the images in the drawable folder and sub folder .. like drawable-ldpi/S_001/a001_001.jpg.

I have tried to populate one image, but the application crashed. Here is the code:

ImageSwitcher imageSwitcher = (ImageSwitcher) findViewById(R.id.imageSwitcher);
imageSwitcher.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(getResources().getIdentifier("S_001/a001_001.jpg", "drawable", getPackageName())));

I need some assisstance.

it is not good to make the new folder in the drawable folder. — Kailash Dabhi, Nov 09 '13 at 06:06
so U are saying that I copy all image files in the drawable foler. so how can I take all of there ids at once in an array? — user2199343, Nov 09 '13 at 06:20
When I run the application this error comes "Unfortunately, application1 has stopped." — user2199343, Nov 09 '13 at 06:21

drawables folder is for img resources used by your app, like icons, 9-patches, backgrounds and other ui elements. You can't put subdirectories there.

If you plan to use some photos in an ImageSwitcher or anything like this, you should use assets folder. Read this to find out more.
