```
public interface ImageLoader

                    
```
A service class that loads images by executing ImageRequests. Image loaders handle caching, data fetching, image decoding, request management, memory management, and more.
Image loaders are designed to be shareable and work best when you create a single instance and share it throughout your app.

- Method Detail
  - enqueue
```
 abstract Disposable enqueue(ImageRequest request)
```
    Enqueue the request to be executed asynchronously.
    NOTE: The request will wait until ImageRequest.lifecycle is at least Lifecycle.State.STARTED before being executed.
    
    Parameters:
    
    request - The request to execute.
  - execute
```
 abstract ImageResult execute(ImageRequest request)
```
    Execute the request in the current coroutine scope.
    NOTE: If ImageRequest.target is a ViewTarget, the job will automatically be cancelled if its view is detached.
    
    Parameters:
    
    request - The request to execute.
  - shutdown
```
 abstract Unit shutdown()
```
    Cancel any new and in progress requests, clear the MemoryCache, and close any open system resources.
    Shutting down an image loader is optional. It will be shut down automatically if dereferenced.
  - newBuilder
```
 abstract ImageLoader.Builder newBuilder()
```
    Create an ImageLoader.Builder that shares the same resources and configuration as this image loader.
  - getDefaults
```
 abstract DefaultRequestOptions getDefaults()
```
    The default options that are used to fill in unset ImageRequest values.
  - getComponents
```
 abstract ComponentRegistry getComponents()
```
    The components used to fulfil image requests.
  - getMemoryCache
```
 abstract MemoryCache getMemoryCache()
```
    An in-memory cache of previously loaded images.
  - getDiskCache
```
 abstract DiskCache getDiskCache()
```
    An on-disk cache of previously loaded images.
