The data which is displayed from the database in the form of listview (here listview with headers having disabled onClick of headers).
I tried to display the description of the selected item from position of getView(). The list is very large so it dynamically allocates the view while scrolling & the position gives wrong values after scrolling
I watched Google I/O 2010 - The world of ListView video & it states these things.
So I think I need to implement notifyDataSetChanged() or onScroll() , onScrollStateChanged() methods.
But how?
Code:
public class MainActivity1 extends ListActivity implements OnTouchListener{
private MyCustomAdapter mAdapter;
Activity temp = this;
String []s = new String[500];
ArrayList<GS> q = new ArrayList<GS>();
CustomAdapter adapter;
ListView lv;
int c=1;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
DBAdapter db = DBAdapter.getDBAdapter(getApplicationContext());
if (!db.checkDatabase())
{
db.createDatabase(getApplicationContext());
}
db.openDatabase();
q = db.getData();
mAdapter = new MyCustomAdapter();
mAdapter.addSeparatorItem(q.get(0).getA_name());
mAdapter.addItem(q.get(0).getAS_name());
for (int i = 1; i < 460; i++) {
if (!(q.get(i).getA_name().trim().equals(q.get(i-1).getA_name().trim()))) {
mAdapter.addSeparatorItem(q.get(i).getA_name());
c++;
}
mAdapter.addItem(q.get(i).getAS_name());
}
setListAdapter(mAdapter);
}
//Adapter Class
private class MyCustomAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
private static final int TYPE_ITEM = 0;
private static final int TYPE_SEPARATOR = 1;
private static final int TYPE_MAX_COUNT = TYPE_SEPARATOR + 1;
private ArrayList<String> mData = new ArrayList<String>();
private LayoutInflater mInflater;
private TreeSet<Integer> mSeparatorsSet = new TreeSet<Integer>();
public MyCustomAdapter() {
mInflater = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
}
public void addItem(final String item) {
mData.add(item);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
public void addSeparatorItem(final String item) {
mData.add(item);
// save separator position
mSeparatorsSet.add(mData.size() - 1);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
return mSeparatorsSet.contains(position) ? TYPE_SEPARATOR : TYPE_ITEM;
}
@Override
public int getViewTypeCount() {
return TYPE_MAX_COUNT;
}
public int getCount() {
return mData.size();
}
public String getItem(int position) {
return mData.get(position);
}
public long getItemId(int position) {
Log.v("getItemId Position", ""+position);
return position;
}
public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
ViewHolder holder = null;
int type = getItemViewType(position);
// System.out.println("getView " + position + " " + convertView + " type = " + type);
if (convertView == null) {
holder = new ViewHolder();
switch (type) {
case TYPE_ITEM:
convertView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_main1, null);
holder.textView = (TextView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.text);
break;
case TYPE_SEPARATOR:
convertView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_main2, null);
holder.textView = (TextView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.textSeparator);
count++;
break;
}
convertView.setTag(holder);
} else {
holder = (ViewHolder)convertView.getTag();
}
holder.textView.setText(mData.get(position));
// We set the OnClickListener here because it is unique to every
// item. Although views can be recycled & reused, an OnClickListener cannot be.
if (type == TYPE_ITEM) {
holder.textView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
AlertDialog.Builder x = new AlertDialog.Builder(
temp);
Log.v("position",""+position);
x.setIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher)
.setTitle(q.get(position-count).getAS_name())
.setMessage(q.get(position-count).getDesc_art())
.setCancelable(true)
.setPositiveButton("OK",
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface arg,
int arg1) {
}
});
AlertDialog a = x.create();
a.show();
}
});
} else {
holder.textView.setOnClickListener(null);
count++;
}
return convertView;
}
}
public static class ViewHolder {
public TextView textView;
}
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return false;
}
}
So,I am trying to display the description of the selected item in Alertdialog when TYPE_ITEM is clicked.The description of each TYPE_ITEM is stored in the database sequentially. Hence, I need to keep track the position(means indexing) of TYPE_ITEM for getting data from database. I hope u now understand my problem !
BTW I tried using a count variable in getView() that but in that what if we again scroll up(in that case the count should decrement). i hope u understand the problem now & i think we should implement notifyDataSetChanged or onScroll, onScrollStateChanged methods.
If the problem is not clear then u can ask me in the comments
Pls help!
positionvalue seems to be increasing but 'position' also increases by 'TYPE_SEPERATOR' i.e. header & i want to minus the position for every header to display the correct data ! i tried doing -1 as u can see in alertdialog but it displays the correct data under 1st header ! I have many headers in my list & for that wht sh'd be done? – Terpene
