title: BitmapFactory.decodeResource returns null value
body: <p>I am tring to load bitmaps from an internal resource in a View object (the source itself is in "drawable" files).</p>
  
  <p>the code is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import android.content.Context;
  import android.graphics.Bitmap;
  import android.graphics.BitmapFactory;
  import android.graphics.Canvas;
  import android.util.AttributeSet;
  import android.view.View;
  
  
  public class BannerView extends View {
  
  
  
   private Bitmap m_Banner = null;
  
   public BannerView(Context context, AttributeSet attributeSet) {
    super(context, attributeSet);
  
    m_Banner = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.banner);
  
   }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Why m_Banner value is null?</p>
  
  <p>thank you in advance</p>
