For my application, I need to refresh thumbnail image of gallery.
Because whenever I update my image content that thing don't reflected on thumbnail. The thumbnail image show first time image creation data not the present one.
But actual image contain new data so I need to reflect it into thumbnail also. After wandering this forum I found following code snippet to delete current thumbnail but I can't able to call this function because I don't able to get photoId.
private static void removeThumbnails(ContentResolver contentResolver, long photoId) {
Cursor thumbnails = contentResolver.query(Thumbnails.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, null, Thumbnails.IMAGE_ID + "=?", new String[]{String.valueOf(photoId)}, null);
for (thumbnails.moveToFirst(); !thumbnails.isAfterLast(); thumbnails.moveToNext()) {
long thumbnailId = thumbnails.getLong(thumbnails.getColumnIndex(Thumbnails._ID));
String path = thumbnails.getString(thumbnails.getColumnIndex(Thumbnails.DATA));
File file = new File(path);
if (file.delete()) {
contentResolver.delete(Thumbnails.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, Thumbnails._ID + "=?", new String[]{String.valueOf(thumbnailId)});
}
}
At present I was calling this function as
removeThumbnails(pexelMimics.getContentResolver(),
ContentUris.parseId(uri));
I think this trick will work for me. But this is my guess. I am open to better solutions.
At the time of image saving, I have to provide following code to delete image content.
activity.getContentResolver().delete(
MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
MediaColumns.DATA
+ "='"
+ GameManager.getInstance().getSavedImageFilePath()
.replaceAll("'", "''") + "'", null);
After this I got new content in thumbnail icon.
