How to write Text on ImageView in android coding?

Question

Hi I've been trying to write Numbers on Imageview. Images for N number of questions. If the user entered answer is correct, then it should be displayed with question number with tick mark image else question number with wrong mark image. I need to write the question number on the image. My code is here:

    LinearLayout l_layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.linear_view_report);
    LayoutParams param = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, 1.0f);
    ImageView[] imgview=new ImageView[questions.length];
    for(int i=0;i<no_of_questions;i++)
    {
                if(userEnteredAnswers[i]==correct_answer[i]){           
                    Bitmap bm=BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(),R.drawable.correct);
                    Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bm);
                    Paint paint = new Paint(); 
                    paint.setColor(Color.BLACK); 
                    paint.setTextSize(10); 
                    canvas.drawText(i, 5, 5, paint);

                    imgview[i]=new ImageView(this);
                    imgview[i].setImageDrawable(new BitmapDrawable(bm));
                    l_layout.addView(imgview[i]);
                }
                else {          
                    Bitmap bm=BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(),R.drawable.wrong);
                    Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bm);
                    Paint paint = new Paint(); 
                    paint.setColor(Color.BLACK); 
                    paint.setTextSize(10); 
                    canvas.drawText(i, 5, 5, paint);

                    imgview[i]=new ImageView(this);
                    imgview[i].setImageDrawable(new BitmapDrawable(bm));
                    l_layout.addView(imgview[i]);
                }       
            }

I get this warning:

The constructor BitmapDrawable(Bitmap) is deprecated

Image doesn't showing at run time. What am I doing wrong?

I believe the easiest workaround without overriding anything would be to have a TextView and set its background with a drawable resource.

For instance:

TextView t = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.my_text_view);
// setting gravity to "center"
t.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
t.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.my_drawable);
t.setText("FOO");
