Android Question SearchView with FontAwesome Icon As Image

[A Z M JANNAT UL KARIM]

Hi, I want to create a SearchView where I want to use lv.AddTwoLinesAndBitmap2 with all the parameters. I had changed the SearchView code with the following ...

Type ItemBM (SearchText As String, Title As String, SecondLine As String, Text As String, ImageFile As Bitmap, Value As Object)
Private Sub AddItemsToList(li As List, full As String)
    If li.IsInitialized = False Then Return
    For Each it As ItemBM In li
        If full.Length > MAX_LIMIT And it.SearchText.Contains(full) = False Then
            Continue
        End If
        lv.AddTwoLinesAndBitmap2(it.Title, it.SecondLine, it.ImageFile, it.Text)
    Next
End Sub

I want to set the image file here from FontAwesome. It's a single icon which shows repeatedly. Can anybody help me here. Also for certain condition I do not want to show the image. Thank you in Advance ...

FontAwesome is a font file. You get a regular string, not an image.

You can use TextToBitmap sub from this post to convert it to a bitmap: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...awesome-and-material-icons.73646/#post-467852

Thank you for the information. I had transferred the Bitmap image through above function with the following code which takes long and due to having Search List More than 5,000/- data, Sometimes Memory Crashes happening.

it.ImageFile = TextToBitmap(Chr(0xF05B), 8)

Is there any way to improve the performance.
Also How I can Set No Images in Bitmap AddTwoLinesAndBitmap2.
Thank You ...

Create a single bitmap and use it whenever needed.

Also How I can Set No Images in Bitmap AddTwoLinesAndBitmap2

Pass Null for the bitmap.

Thanks Erel It solved the purpose though the performance is not good for so many information. Need rework from my part ...

Worth Sharing. After compiling the apps to the release mode all sluggishness gone !!! This information for others who stopped here to find solution.
