Create a PNG Resource dynamically

Question

I'm trying in Android to get resources from an XML file sent from my server. It sends me a PNG file directly in Base64 format.

Like This :

My question is :

Is there a method to use the PNG data sent from my server as a resource like in "R.drawable.MyNewResource" ?

Or can I set ImageResoure from a PNG file in my application data folder ?

Thanks in advance!

Ok, your question is not proper, If I am not wrong then you want something like,

Just convert your web response base64 png string into bitmap and then use that bitmap to set in imageview.

Bitmap bitmap;          
ImageView imgView;
byte[] decodedString;       

decodedString = Base64.decode(encodedImage, Base64.DEFAULT);
bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(decodedString, 0, decodedString.length);
imgView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
