<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:gravity="bottom" />

   <TextView

       android:textColor="#FF0000"
       android:textSize="20dp"
       android:layout_width="wrap_content"
       android:layout_height="wrap_content"
       android:layout_below="@+id/myGallery"
       android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
       android:layout_marginTop="25dp"
       android:text="Static Gallery Creation" />

   <TextView
       android:id="@+id/textView2"
       android:layout_width="wrap_content"

       android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
       android:layout_marginTop="30dp" />

   <ImageView
       android:id="@+id/imageView1"
       android:layout_width="wrap_content"
       android:layout_height="wrap_content"
       android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
       android:layout_marginBottom="30dp"
       android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
  
</RelativeLayout>



Step 3 : Open src -> package -> MainActivity.java and add following code :

package com.gudivada.hemanthsomaraju;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.BaseAdapter;
import android.widget.Gallery;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

TextView mySelection;
Gallery myGallery;
ImageView img;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

final int[] myImageIds = {
R.drawable.android,
R.drawable.amazon,
R.drawable.apple,
R.drawable.ask,
R.drawable.dropbox,
R.drawable.email,
R.drawable.fb,
R.drawable.google,
R.drawable.linkedin
};

mySelection = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView2);
myGallery = (Gallery) findViewById(R.id.myGallery);
img = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView1);

myGallery.setAdapter(new ImageAdapter(this));

myGallery.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() {

public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View v,
int position, long id) {

mySelection.setText(" selected option: " + position );

img.setImageResource(myImageIds[position]);
}

public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {

mySelection.setText("Nothing selected");
}
});
}

public class ImageAdapter extends BaseAdapter {

private Context myContext;

private int[] myImageIds = {
R.drawable.android,
R.drawable.amazon,
R.drawable.apple,
R.drawable.ask,
R.drawable.dropbox,
R.drawable.email,
R.drawable.fb,
R.drawable.google,
R.drawable.linkedin
};

public ImageAdapter(Context c) {
this.myContext = c;
}

public int getCount() {
return this.myImageIds.length;
}

public Object getItem(int position) {
return position;
}

public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
// Returns a new ImageView to be displayed,
public View getView(int position, View convertView,
ViewGroup parent) {

ImageView iv = new ImageView(this.myContext);
iv.setImageResource(this.myImageIds[position]);

iv.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_END);

// Set the Width & Height of the individual images
iv.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(95, 70));

return iv;
}
}
}


Step 4 : Open AndroidManifest.xml and add following code :


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.gudivada.hemanthsomaraju"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="8"
        android:targetSdkVersion="19" />

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <activity
            android:name="com.gudivada.hemanthsomaraju.MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>
