I used notifyDataSetChanged in in my recycleriew. like this:
private void setList(List<Article> articles) {
mainList.addAll(articles);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
But I want to use diffUtill in my recycleriew. I created my own diffUtill like this:
public class ArticleListDiffTool extends DiffUtil.Callback {
List<Article> oldList;
List<Article> newList;
private static final String TAG = "ArticleListDiffTool";
public ArticleListDiffTool(List<Article> oldList, List<Article> newList) {
this.oldList = oldList;
this.newList = newList;
Log.d(TAG, "ArticleListDiffTool: " + this.oldList.size() + "\n" + this.newList.size());
}
#Override
public int getOldListSize() {
return oldList.size();
}
#Override
public int getNewListSize() {
return newList.size();
}
#Override
public boolean areItemsTheSame(int oldItemPosition, int newItemPosition) {
return oldList.get(oldItemPosition).getId() .equals( newList.get(newItemPosition).getId());
}
#Override
public boolean areContentsTheSame(int oldItemPosition, int newItemPosition) {
return oldList.get(oldItemPosition).equals(newList.get(newItemPosition));
}
#Nullable
#Override
public Object getChangePayload(int oldItemPosition, int newItemPosition) {
//you can return particular field for changed item.
return super.getChangePayload(oldItemPosition, newItemPosition);
}
}
And I use it in my adapter :
private void setList(List articles) {
DiffUtil.DiffResult diffResult = DiffUtil.calculateDiff(new ArticleListDiffTool(this.mainList, articles),true);
mainList.addAll(articles);
diffResult.dispatchUpdatesTo(this);
}
I want to add new data to my old list. But when new data received, the recyclerView will be scrolled to the top of the list.
But I want to recyclerView be in its user state and new data add to the rest of the old list.
RecylcerView updates knows nothing about your views. When you call notifyDataSetChanged it tries to determine which views moved, or were replaced. I don't see you using setHasStableIds so when calling notifyDataSetChanged it will assume all of the content was replaced. It will jump to position 0 and be done with it. When you use setHasStableIds it will check the ids of the visible items and update the content in them. It will stop jumping around.
Now you also show that you are using DiffUtil. This is great! When you're not working with setHasStableIds this is the way to properly tell the recyclerView about what changed.
The problem you are facing is that you're using both. Either move to long ids and let the recyclerview do the diffing itself, or use DiffUtil and remove the call to notifyDataSetChanged. Either variant should work.
If you add new items at the end of the recyclerview, before you add the data, store the 1st visible item in recyclerview:
int position = ((LinearLayoutManager) recyclerView.GetLayoutManager()).findFirstVisibleItemPosition();
and after you make all the changes and call notifyDatasetChanged() scroll to position:
recyclerView.scrollToPosition(position);
I Found the problem after a few hours.
I every time that wants to update my recyclerView send received data to my adapter
And DiffUtil goes to compare my old list with received new parts and because of that (completely new items) DiffUtil decides to refresh whole recyclerView list.
Solution:
Now I get the current list from the recyclerView adapter and use addAll to insert new items that received from the server, then I pass this complete list to the adapter.
Now DiffUtil can compare diffrent between my old and new lists and recyclerView will be stay at it's current position.
I have a simple adapter
public class ConversationListAdapter extends
RecyclerView.Adapter<Conversation.ViewHolder> {
private List<Conversation> items;
private Activity activity;
public ConversationListAdapter(Activity activity, List<Conversation> items) {
super();
this. items = items;
this.activity = activity;
}
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder viewHolder, int i) {
Conversation conversation = mItems.get(i);
viewHolder.name.setText(conversation.getName());
if ( conversation.getUrl() != null) {
Picasso.with(activity.getApplicationContext()).load(conversation.getUrl())
.into(viewHolder.imageView);
}
}
and a basic
class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener {..}
}
Now in the fragment as always:
mRecyclerView.setAdapter(new ConversationAdapter(getActivity(), mItems));
Now Im calling my rest api to get the data and the first time it works great everything is where it should be (let's say in c there is only 2 items and the order is conv1 and conv2)
private void handleResult(List<Conversation> c) {
items.clear()
items.addAll(c)
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged()
}
But... now if I refresh for example and the data in the List comes in a different order (conv2 and then conv1) after the adapter.notifyDataSetChanged() both of my imageView in the list have the same pictures.. ! But the textView however has the right text
This only happens with view filled with Picasso and cannot understand why
Could someone help me on this ?
you use if condition in any adapter you also have to set else part of it. i also don't know exactly why this is happen that if condition is given it takes same condition for child which are not match this, may be a bug in android. please try else part of it also. may be this work for you.
You have to replace your items in your adapter or create a new adapter with the new items
1st solution:
private void handleResult(List<Conversation> c) {
mRecyclerView.setAdapter(new ConversationAdapter(getActivity(), c));
}
2nd solution:
private void handleResult(List<Conversation> c) {
adapter.setList(c);
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
And don't to forget to create setList(List<Conversation> c) method in your Adapter
I'm using a list to populate a ListView (). The user is able to add items to the list. However, I need the items to be displayed at the top of the ListView. How do I insert an item at the beginning of my list in order to display it in reverse order?
By default list adds elements at bottom. That is why all new elements you add will show at bottom. If you want it in reverse order, may be before setting to listadapter/view reverse the list
Something like:
Collections.reverse(yourList);
Another solution without modifying the original list, override getItem() method in the Adapter
#Override
public Item getItem(int position) {
return super.getItem(getCount() - position - 1);
}
Updated: Example
public class ChatAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<ChatItem> {
public ChatAdapter(Context context, List<ChatItem> chats) {
super(context, R.layout.row_chat, chats);
}
#Override
public Item getItem(int position) {
return super.getItem(getCount() - position - 1);
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
if(convertView == null) {
convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row_chat, parent, false);
}
ChatItem chatItem = getItem(position);
//Other code here
return convertView;
}
}
You should probably use an ArrayAdapter and use the insert(T, int) method.
Ex:
ListView lv = new ListView(context);
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(context, R.id...);
lv.setAdapter(adapter);
...
adapter.insert("Hello", 0);
The ListView displays the data as it is stored in your data source.
When you are adding in your database, it must be adding the elements in the end. So, when you are getting all the data via the Cursor object and assigning it to the ArrayAdapter, it is in that order only. You should basically be trying to put data in the beginning of the database, rather that in the end, by having some time-stamp maybe.
Using ArrayList, you can do it by Collections.reverse(arrayList) or if you are using SQLite, you can use order by.
You can add element at the beginning of the list: like
arraylist.add(0, object)
then it will always display the new element at the top.
mBlogList is a recycler view...
mBlogList=(RecyclerView) findViewById(R.id.your xml file);
mBlogList.setHasFixedSize(true);
LinearLayoutManager mLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(this);
mLayoutManager.setReverseLayout(true);
mLayoutManager.setStackFromEnd(true);
mBlogList.setLayoutManager(mLayoutManager);//VERTICAL FORMAT
You could always have a datestamp in your objects and sort your listview based on that..
public class CustomComparator implements Comparator<YourObjectName> {
public int compare(YourObjectName o1, YourObjectName o2) {
return o1.getDate() > o2.getDate() // something like that.. google how to do a compare method on two dates
}
}
now sort your list
Collections.sort(YourList, new CustomComparator());
This should sort your list such that the newest item will go on top
You can always use a LinkedList instead and then use addFirst() method to add elements to your list and it will have the desired behaviour (new items at the top of the ListView).
How to refresh an Android ListView after adding/deleting dynamic data?
Call notifyDataSetChanged() on your Adapter object once you've modified the data in that adapter.
Some additional specifics on how/when to call notifyDataSetChanged() can be viewed in this Google I/O video.
Also you can use this:
myListView.invalidateViews();
Please ignore all the invalidate(), invalidateViews(), requestLayout(), ... answers to this question.
The right thing to do (and luckily also marked as right answer) is to call notifyDataSetChanged() on your Adapter.
Troubleshooting
If calling notifyDataSetChanged() doesn't work all the layout methods won't help either. Believe me the ListView was properly updated. If you fail to find the difference you need to check where the data in your adapter comes from.
If this is just a collection you're keeping in memory check that you actually deleted from or added the item(s) to the collection before calling the notifyDataSetChanged().
If you're working with a database or service backend you'll have to call the method to retrieve the information again (or manipulate the in memory data) before calling the notifyDataSetChanged().
The thing is this notifyDataSetChanged only works if the dataset has changed. So that is the place to look if you don't find changes coming through. Debug if needed.
ArrayAdapter vs BaseAdapter
I did find that working with an adapter that lets you manage the collection, like a BaseAdapter works better. Some adapters like the ArrayAdapter already manage their own collection making it harder to get to the proper collection for updates. It's really just an needless extra layer of difficulty in most cases.
UI Thread
It is true that this has to be called from the UI thread. Other answers have examples on how to achieve this. However this is only required if you're working on this information from outside the UI thread. That is from a service or a non UI thread. In simple cases you'll be updating your data from a button click or another activity/fragment. So still within the UI thread. No need to always pop that runOnUiTrhead in.
Quick Example Project
Can be found at https://github.com/hanscappelle/so-2250770.git. Just clone and open the project in Android Studio (gradle). This project has a MainAcitivity building a ListView with all random data. This list can be refreshed using the action menu.
The adapter implementation I created for this example ModelObject exposes the data collection
public class MyListAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
/**
* this is our own collection of data, can be anything we
* want it to be as long as we get the abstract methods
* implemented using this data and work on this data
* (see getter) you should be fine
*/
private List<ModelObject> mData;
/**
* our ctor for this adapter, we'll accept all the things
* we need here
*
* #param mData
*/
public MyListAdapter(final Context context, final List<ModelObject> mData) {
this.mData = mData;
this.mContext = context;
}
public List<ModelObject> getData() {
return mData;
}
// implement all abstract methods here
}
Code from the MainActivity
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private MyListAdapter mAdapter;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ListView list = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list);
// create some dummy data here
List<ModelObject> objects = getRandomData();
// and put it into an adapter for the list
mAdapter = new MyListAdapter(this, objects);
list.setAdapter(mAdapter);
// mAdapter is available in the helper methods below and the
// data will be updated based on action menu interactions
// you could also keep the reference to the android ListView
// object instead and use the {#link ListView#getAdapter()}
// method instead. However you would have to cast that adapter
// to your own instance every time
}
/**
* helper to show what happens when all data is new
*/
private void reloadAllData(){
// get new modified random data
List<ModelObject> objects = getRandomData();
// update data in our adapter
mAdapter.getData().clear();
mAdapter.getData().addAll(objects);
// fire the event
mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
/**
* helper to show how only changing properties of data
* elements also works
*/
private void scrambleChecked(){
Random random = new Random();
// update data in our adapter, iterate all objects and
// resetting the checked option
for( ModelObject mo : mAdapter.getData()) {
mo.setChecked(random.nextBoolean());
}
// fire the event
mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
More Information
Another nice post about the power of listViews is found here: http://www.vogella.com/articles/AndroidListView/article.html
Call runnable whenever you want:
runOnUiThread(run);
OnCreate(), you set your runnable thread:
run = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
//reload content
arraylist.clear();
arraylist.addAll(db.readAll());
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
listview.invalidateViews();
listview.refreshDrawableState();
}
};
i got some problems with dynamic refresh of my listview.
Call notifyDataSetChanged() on your Adapter.
Some additional specifics on how/when to call notifyDataSetChanged() can be viewed in this Google I/O video.
notifyDataSetChanged() did not work properly in my case[ I called the notifyDataSetChanged from another class]. Just in the case i edited the ListView in the running Activity (Thread). That video thanks to Christopher gave the final hint.
In my second class i used
Runnable run = new Runnable(){
public void run(){
contactsActivity.update();
}
};
contactsActivity.runOnUiThread(run);
to acces the update() from my Activity. This update includes
myAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
to tell the Adapter to refresh the view.
Worked fine as far as I can say.
If you are using SimpleCursorAdapter try calling requery() on the Cursor object.
if you are not still satisfied with ListView Refreshment, you can look at this snippet,this is for loading the listView from DB, Actually what you have to do is simply reload the ListView,after you perform any CRUD Operation
Its not a best way to code, but it will refresh the ListView as you wish..
It works for Me....if u find better solution,please Share...
.......
......
do your CRUD Operations..
......
.....
DBAdapter.open();
DBAdapter.insert_into_SingleList();
// Bring that DB_results and add it to list as its contents....
ls2.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(DynTABSample.this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, DBAdapter.DB_ListView));
DBAdapter.close();
The solutions proposed by people in this post works or not mainly depending on the Android version of your device. For Example to use the AddAll method you have to put android:minSdkVersion="10" in your android device.
To solve this questions for all devices I have created my on own method in my adapter and use inside the add and remove method inherits from ArrayAdapter that update you data without problems.
My Code: Using my own data class RaceResult, you use your own data model.
ResultGpRowAdapter.java
public class ResultGpRowAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<RaceResult> {
Context context;
int resource;
List<RaceResult> data=null;
public ResultGpRowAdapter(Context context, int resource, List<RaceResult> objects) {
super(context, resource, objects);
this.context = context;
this.resource = resource;
this.data = objects;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
........
}
//my own method to populate data
public void myAddAll(List<RaceResult> items) {
for (RaceResult item:items){
super.add(item);
}
}
ResultsGp.java
public class ResultsGp extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...........
...........
ListView list = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.resultsGpList);
ResultGpRowAdapter adapter = new ResultGpRowAdapter(this, R.layout.activity_result_gp_row, new ArrayList<RaceResult>()); //Empty data
list.setAdapter(adapter);
....
....
....
//LOAD a ArrayList<RaceResult> with data
ArrayList<RaceResult> data = new ArrayList<RaceResult>();
data.add(new RaceResult(....));
data.add(new RaceResult(....));
.......
adapter.myAddAll(data); //Your list will be udpdated!!!
For me after changing information in sql database nothing could refresh list view( to be specific expandable list view) so if notifyDataSetChanged() doesn't help, you can try to clear your list first and add it again after that call notifyDataSetChanged(). For example
private List<List<SomeNewArray>> arrayList;
List<SomeNewArray> array1= getArrayList(...);
List<SomeNewArray> array2= getArrayList(...);
arrayList.clear();
arrayList.add(array1);
arrayList.add(array2);
notifyDataSetChanged();
Hope it makes sense for you.
If you want to maintain your scroll position when you refresh, and you can do this:
if (mEventListView.getAdapter() == null) {
EventLogAdapter eventLogAdapter = new EventLogAdapter(mContext, events);
mEventListView.setAdapter(eventLogAdapter);
} else {
((EventLogAdapter)mEventListView.getAdapter()).refill(events);
}
public void refill(List<EventLog> events) {
mEvents.clear();
mEvents.addAll(events);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
For the detail information, please see Android ListView: Maintain your scroll position when you refresh.
Just use myArrayList.remove(position); inside a listener:
myListView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, android.view.View view, int position, long id) {
myArrayList.remove(position);
myArrayAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
});
You need to use a single object of that list whoose data you are inflating on ListView. If reference is change then notifyDataSetChanged() does't work .Whenever You are deleting elements from list view also delete them from the list you are using whether it is a ArrayList<> or Something else then Call
notifyDataSetChanged() on object of Your adapter class.
So here see how i managed it in my adapter see below
public class CountryCodeListAdapter extends BaseAdapter implements OnItemClickListener{
private Context context;
private ArrayList<CountryDataObject> dObj;
private ViewHolder holder;
private Typeface itemFont;
private int selectedPosition=-1;
private ArrayList<CountryDataObject> completeList;
public CountryCodeListAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<CountryDataObject> dObj) {
this.context = context;
this.dObj=dObj;
completeList=new ArrayList<CountryDataObject>();
completeList.addAll(dObj);
itemFont=Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(), "CaviarDreams.ttf");
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return dObj.size();
}
#Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
return dObj.get(position);
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View view, ViewGroup parent) {
if(view==null){
holder = new ViewHolder();
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.states_inflator_layout, null);
holder.textView = ((TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.stateNameInflator));
holder.checkImg=(ImageView)view.findViewById(R.id.checkBoxState);
view.setTag(holder);
}else{
holder = (ViewHolder) view.getTag();
}
holder.textView.setText(dObj.get(position).getCountryName());
holder.textView.setTypeface(itemFont);
if(position==selectedPosition)
{
holder.checkImg.setImageResource(R.drawable.check);
}
else
{
holder.checkImg.setImageResource(R.drawable.uncheck);
}
return view;
}
private class ViewHolder{
private TextView textView;
private ImageView checkImg;
}
public void getFilter(String name) {
dObj.clear();
if(!name.equals("")){
for (CountryDataObject item : completeList) {
if(item.getCountryName().toLowerCase().startsWith(name.toLowerCase(),0)){
dObj.add(item);
}
}
}
else {
dObj.addAll(completeList);
}
selectedPosition=-1;
notifyDataSetChanged();
notifyDataSetInvalidated();
}
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position,
long id) {
Registration reg=(Registration)context;
selectedPosition=position;
reg.setSelectedCountryCode("+"+dObj.get(position).getCountryCode());
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
Consider you have passed a list to your adapter.
Use:
list.getAdapter().notifyDataSetChanged()
to update your list.
After deleting data from list view, you have to call refreshDrawableState().
Here is the example:
final DatabaseHelper db = new DatabaseHelper (ActivityName.this);
db.open();
db.deleteContact(arg3);
mListView.refreshDrawableState();
db.close();
and deleteContact method in DatabaseHelper class will be somewhat looks like
public boolean deleteContact(long rowId) {
return db.delete(TABLE_NAME, BaseColumns._ID + "=" + rowId, null) > 0;
}
I was not able to get notifyDataSetChanged() to work on updating my SimpleAdapter, so instead I tried first removing all views that were attached to the parent layout using removeAllViews(), then adding the ListView, and that worked, allowing me to update the UI:
LinearLayout results = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.results);
ListView lv = new ListView(this);
ArrayList<HashMap<String,String>> list = new ArrayList<HashMap<String,String>>();
SimpleAdapter adapter = new SimpleAdapter( this, list, R.layout.directory_row,
new String[] { "name", "dept" }, new int[] { R.id.name, R.id.dept } );
for (...) {
HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
map.put("name", name);
map.put("dept", dept);
list.add(map);
}
lv.setAdapter(adapter);
results.removeAllViews();
results.addView(lv);
while using SimpleCursorAdapter can call changeCursor(newCursor) on the adapter.
I was the same when, in a fragment, I wanted to populate a ListView (in a single TextView) with the mac address of BLE devices scanned over some time.
What I did was this:
public class Fragment01 extends android.support.v4.app.Fragment implements ...
{
private ListView listView;
private ArrayAdapter<String> arrayAdapter_string;
...
#Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
...
this.listView= (ListView) super.getActivity().findViewById(R.id.fragment01_listView);
...
this.arrayAdapter_string= new ArrayAdapter<String>(super.getActivity(), R.layout.dispositivo_ble_item, R.id.fragment01_item_textView_titulo);
this.listView.setAdapter(this.arrayAdapter_string);
}
#Override
public void onLeScan(BluetoothDevice device, int rssi, byte[] scanRecord)
{
...
super.getActivity().runOnUiThread(new RefreshListView(device));
}
private class RefreshListView implements Runnable
{
private BluetoothDevice bluetoothDevice;
public RefreshListView(BluetoothDevice bluetoothDevice)
{
this.bluetoothDevice= bluetoothDevice;
}
#Override
public void run()
{
Fragment01.this.arrayAdapter_string.add(new String(bluetoothDevice.toString()));
Fragment01.this.arrayAdapter_string.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
Then the ListView began to dynamically populate with the mac address of the devices found.
I think it depends on what you mean by refresh. Do you mean that the GUI display should be refreshed, or do you mean that the child views should be refreshed such that you can programatically call getChildAt(int) and get the view corresponding to what is in the Adapter.
If you want the GUI display refreshed, then call notifyDataSetChanged() on the adapter. The GUI will be refreshed when next redrawn.
If you want to be able to call getChildAt(int) and get a view that reflects what is what is in the adapter, then call to layoutChildren(). This will cause the child view to be reconstructed from the adapter data.
I had an ArrayList which I wanted to display in a listview. ArrayList contained elements from mysql.
I overrided onRefresh method and in that method I used tablelayout.removeAllViews(); and then repeated the process for getting data again from the database.
But before that make sure to clear your ArrayList or whatever data structre or else new data will get appended to the old one..
If you want to update the UI listview from a service, then make the adapter static in your Main activity and do this:
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
if (MainActivity.isInFront == true) {
if (MainActivity.adapter != null) {
MainActivity.adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
MainActivity.listView.setAdapter(MainActivity.adapter);
}
}
If you are going by android guide lines and you are using the ContentProviders to get data from Database and you are displaying it in the ListView using the CursorLoader and CursorAdapters ,then you all changes to the related data will automatically be reflected in the ListView.
Your getContext().getContentResolver().notifyChange(uri, null); on the cursor in the ContentProvider will be enough to reflect the changes .No need for the extra work around.
But when you are not using these all then you need to tell the adapter when the dataset is changing. Also you need to re-populate / reload your dataset (say list) and then you need to call notifyDataSetChanged() on the adapter.
notifyDataSetChanged()wont work if there is no the changes in the datset.
Here is the comment above the method in docs-
/**
* Notifies the attached observers that the underlying data has been changed
* and any View reflecting the data set should refresh itself.
*/
I was only able to get notifyDataSetChanged only by getting new adapter data, then resetting the adapter for the list view, then making the call like so:
expandableAdapter = baseFragmentParent.setupEXLVAdapter();
baseFragmentParent.setAdapter(expandableAdapter);
expandableAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
on other option is onWindowFocusChanged method, but sure its sensitive and needs some extra coding for whom is interested
override fun onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus: Boolean) {
super.onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus)
// some controls needed
programList = usersDBHelper.readProgram(model.title!!)
notesAdapter = DailyAdapter(this, programList)
notesAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged()
listview_act_daily.adapter = notesAdapter
}
If I talked about my scenario here, non of above answers will not worked because I had activity that show list of db values along with a delete button and when a delete button is pressed, I wanted to delete that item from the list.
The cool thing was, I did not used recycler view but a simple list view and that list view initialized in the adapter class. So, calling the notifyDataSetChanged() will not do anything inside the adapter class and even in the activity class where adapter object is initialized because delete method was in the adapter class.
So, the solution was to remove the object from the adapter in the adapter class getView method(to only delete that specific object but if you want to delete all, call clear()).
To you to get some idea, what was my code look like,
public class WordAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Word> {
Context context;
public WordAdapter(Activity context, ArrayList<Word> words) {}
//.......
#NonNull
#Override
public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup group) {
//.......
ImageButton deleteBt = listItemView.findViewById(R.id.word_delete_bt);
deleteBt.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if (vocabDb.deleteWord(currentWord.id)) {
//.....
} else{
//.....
}
remove(getItem(position)); // <---- here is the trick ---<
//clear() // if you want to clear everything
}
});
//....
Note: here remove() and getItem() methods are inherit from the Adapter class.
remove() - to remove the specific item that is clicked
getItem(position) - is to get the item(here, thats my Word object
that I have added to the list) from the clicked position.
This is how I set the adapter to the listview in the activity class,
ArrayList<Word> wordList = new ArrayList();
WordAdapter adapter = new WordAdapter(this, wordList);
ListView list_view = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.activity_view_words);
list_view.setAdapter(adapter);
After adding/deleting dynamic data in your "dataArray" do:
if you use an ArrayAdapter
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
if you use a customAdapter that extends ArrayAdapter
adapter.clear();
adapter.addAll(dataArray);
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
if you use a customAdapter that extends BaseAdapter
adapter.clear();
adapter.getData().addAll(dataArray);
adapter.getData().notifyDataSetChanged();
The easiest is to just make a new Adaper and drop the old one:
myListView.setAdapter(new MyListAdapter(...));
