Why does "asset not found" error occur in my code?

Question

I have a .png file in my assets folder and I'm trying to get that image to show on screen when I tap the screen.

InputStream open = null;
try{
    open = asset.open("ic_launcher.png");
    Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(open);

    ImageView image = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
    image.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}catch(Exception e){
    e.printStackTrace();
}
finally{
    if(open != null){
        try{
            open.close();
        }catch(IOException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }       
    }
}

But I keep getting the FileNotFoundException and don't know why.

Check below line of code and replace it.

InputStream is = getAssets().open("ic_launcher.png");

Try this, it may work.

 open = asset.open
("ic_launcher");

don't mention extentions.

That didn't work .However, I cleaned the project and restarted it. Now I get a different error. I get an NPE error.. – Space Ghost Mar 31 '14 at 07:39

forgot about drawable and using assets? images you store in assets doesn't get compressed. Better to use drawable. – Emm Jay Mar 31 '14 at 07:42

Try this-

try {
InputStream ims = getAssets().open("ic_launcher.png");
Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(ims, null);
imgView.setImageDrawable(d);
}
catch(IOException ex) {
return;
}

Also check this.
