Android,Picasso. Is not loading an Image from a url


I just start using Picasso to download, store and retrieve images, but I gut stuck in the first step. I write the simplest code ever but it is not loading anything! here is the code:

    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    Button b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
    final ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
    b.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View arg0) {
            Picasso.with(getApplicationContext()).load("http://www.farsnews.com/shares/img/PLogo.jpg").into(imageView);
        }
    });
}

and the layout is :

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context=".MainActivity" 
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:gravity="center">

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/imageView1"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    tools:ignore="ContentDescription"/>

<Button
    android:id="@+id/button1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/imageView1"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:layout_marginBottom="26dp"
    android:text="Button" />

so, why it is not working?

And is it really a good choice to use Picasso lib for download, store and retrieve images?


Solution

  • try removing this line :

    android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    

    Edit : also forgetting Internet Permission will cause picasso to fail!

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
