[android-developers] Re: Creating URI from resource Id

Haha! Why?

Well I have a resource folder full of images, and I know the reference
to them (R.drawable.image) and I want to call a method which loads a
bitmap given the URI to it. For some reason this method takes the URI,
rather than the drawable reference.

Does that make sense?
