android implements three methods of background tiling


Method 1: system api implementation

Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.pic); 
//bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(100, 20, Config.ARGB_8888); 
BitmapDrawable drawable = new BitmapDrawable(bitmap); 
drawable.setTileModeXY(TileMode.REPEAT , TileMode.REPEAT ); 
drawable.setDither(true); 
view.setBackgroundDrawable(drawable);

Method 2: XML implementation

xml path: res/drawable/bg xml

<bitmap xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"  
    android:src="@drawable/img" 
    android:tileMode="repeat" /> 

Method 3: custom drawing

public static Bitmap createRepeater(int width, Bitmap src){ 
  int count = (width + src.getWidth() - 1) / src.getWidth(); 
  Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(width, src.getHeight(), Config.ARGB_8888); 
  Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bitmap); 

  for(int idx = 0; idx < count; ++ idx){ 
    canvas.drawBitmap(src, idx * src.getWidth(), 0, null); 
  } 

  return bitmap; 
}
