MediaTracker.statusID() method

801421

if (tracker.statusID(1, false) ==
                          MediaTracker.COMPLETE){ }

the second(boolean) argument in statusID() is about the images which are yet to be loaded .A true means there are more images and a false means that loading is complete .
So,since MediaTracker.COMPLETE flag is used ,then would this make sense ?:

if (tracker.statusID(1, true) ==
                          MediaTracker.COMPLETE){ }

tracker is a MediaTracker object.
Please correct me if I have interpreted the meaning of the boolean argument wrongly .

I don't think so, but I've never used this class. According to the API, the true also starts loading any images that haven't already started. It appears that you also have a waitForID() method which may be preferable to looping and checking the statusID() every time.
