是否可以从外部资源加载 9-patch 图像?

Is it possible to load 9-patch images from external resource?

我有一个应用程序想要从网络加载一些图像,我的问题是我可以从网络加载 9 补丁图像吗?或者它只能在我的应用程序的资源文件夹中?
我搜索了很多,我发现 this article 说这是不可能的:

However, (uncrunched) 9-patch images created with draw9patch tool will not work if you try to load them from assets or any other internal or external location. You have to put them in one of resources drawable directory.

但我没有找到任何证实它的文件:/

我用这个很棒的库解决了我的问题:
