how dynamic string can be use to generate image drawable.

[satishkadyan]

CharSequence charseq = "";
holder.image.setImageDrawable(new PrintDrawable.Builder(mActivity.getApplicationContext())
.iconText(charseq)
.iconColorRes(R.color.bl_accent)
.iconSizeRes(R.dimen.big_margin)
.build());

in above code, if i am trying to set char sequence dynamically in icontext, it does not generating icon but only text, only work if i define icon in string xml as resource. how can put icon code like this to work. please help.
thanks.

UPDATE:- xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" i was missing correct shcema import, first now it is fixed working fine. please ignore this issue
even when trying to add with
<com.github.johnkil.print.PrintView
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:id="@+id/arrow_icon"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:iconText="@string/ic_access_alarms"
app:iconColor="#12558C"
app:iconFont="material-icon-font.ttf"
app:iconSize="20dp" />

it keeps giving warning in logging The iconic font is not set.
