Select 1 image from gallery and display on multiple ImageViews

Question

ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.Gallery);
    imageView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Intent galleryIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
                    android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
            // Start the Intent
            startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, RESULT_LOAD);

        }
    });

} 
   @Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    // When an Image is picked
    if (requestCode == RESULT_LOAD && resultCode == RESULT_OK
            && null != data) {
        // Get the Image from data

        Uri imageUri = data.getData();
        InputStream imageStream = null;
        try {
            imageStream = getContentResolver().openInputStream(imageUri);
            ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.Gallery);
            imageView.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imageStream));
        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            // Handle the error
        } finally {
            if (imageStream != null) {
                try {
                    imageStream.close();
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    // Ignore the exception
                }
            }
        }
    }

}

This code works fine for adding and image to one imageView. How can i get it to be displayed in multiple imageViews by just selecting an image once instead of repeating the process for every imageView

Do you want to select multiple pictures at once form gallery? Or single picture . Make it clear . — ADM, Dec 05 '17 at 09:09

`This code works fine for adding and image to one imageView. `. Please explain first why you have problems using it for more imageviews. — greenapps, Dec 05 '17 at 09:18

Dont think so. `by just selecting an image once`. No multiple images. But OP is too silent. A shame. — greenapps, Dec 05 '17 at 10:25
I just want the user to select a single image and the selected image should be displayed in multiple imageViews — Akash R, Dec 05 '17 at 11:29

Create a Bitmap from the stream.

Then assign the bitmap to as much image views you want.

Do code like this:

 @Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
// When an Image is picked
if (requestCode == RESULT_LOAD && resultCode == RESULT_OK
        && null != data) {
    // Get the Image from data

    Uri imageUri = data.getData();
    InputStream imageStream = null;
    try {
        imageStream = getContentResolver().openInputStream(imageUri);
        ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.Gallery);

   imageView.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imageStream));
   imageView1.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imageStream));
   imageView2.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imageStream));
   imageView3.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imageStream));
    } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
        // Handle the error
    } finally {
        if (imageStream != null) {
            try {
                imageStream.close();
            } catch (IOException e) {
                // Ignore the exception
            }
        }
    }
}

Here, imageView,imageView1,imageView2,imageView3 are instance of different image view.

Edited:

  @Override
 protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
// When an Image is picked
if (requestCode == RESULT_LOAD && resultCode == RESULT_OK
    && null != data) {
  // Get the Image from data

  Uri imageUri = data.getData();
  InputStream imageStream = null;
  try {
    imageStream = getContentResolver().openInputStream(imageUri);
     Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imageStream);


            imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
            imageView1.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
            imageView2.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
            imageView3.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
    // Handle the error
} finally {
    if (imageStream != null) {
        try {
            imageStream.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // Ignore the exception
        }
    }
}
}

 public class ThirdJavaActivity extends Activity {

ImageView imageView,imageView1,imageView2,imageView3;

@Override
protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    setContentView(R.layout.content_third);

    imageView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView);
    imageView1 = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
    imageView2 = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView2);

   Intent galleryIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,

    // Start the Intent
    startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, 101);

}

@Override

    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
 // When an Image is picked
    if (requestCode == 101 && resultCode == RESULT_OK
            && null != data) {
        // Get the Image from data

        Uri imageUri = data.getData();
        InputStream imageStream = null;
        try {

            Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imageStream);

            imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
            imageView1.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
            imageView2.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
            imageView3.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // Handle the error
        } finally {
            if (imageStream != null) {
                try {
                    imageStream.close();
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    // Ignore the exception
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
}

You did not try this code yourself did you? You would have discovered that it does not work. — greenapps, Dec 05 '17 at 10:22
