Getting Bitmap from Image using Glide in android

Question

I want to get the bitmap from an image using Glide. I am doing the following -

Bitmap chefBitmap = Glide.with(MyActivity.this)
.load(chef_image)
.asBitmap()
.into(100, 100)
.get();

It used to work with the previous Glide version. But it does not work with this in gradle - "compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.0.0'"

I want to use this dependency because this is the latest version.

Can anyone help me in this regard. Thanks in advance.

Answer 2

There is little changes according to latest version of Glide. Now we need to use submit() to load image as bitmap, if you do not call submit() than listener won't be called. In 4.0 Version, submit() added and in order to invoke listener. One of user commented code is working with GlideApp. You can use below code to run with GlideApp if you are using.

here is working example i used today.

Glide.with(cxt)
  .asBitmap().load(imageUrl)
  .listener(new RequestListener<Bitmap>() {
      @Override
      public boolean onLoadFailed(@Nullable GlideException e, Object o, Target<Bitmap> target, boolean b) {
          Toast.makeText(cxt,getResources().getString(R.string.unexpected_error_occurred_try_again),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
          return false;
      }

      @Override
      public boolean onResourceReady(Bitmap bitmap, Object o, Target<Bitmap> target, DataSource dataSource, boolean b) {
          zoomImage.setImage(ImageSource.bitmap(bitmap));
          return false;
      }
  }
).submit();

It is working and i m getting bitmap from listener.
