Add a image in Listview Android

I am creating a student details application in android.I need to display student's photo at the top and display name,roll number,address etc as a table.I added a imageview at the top and listview just below the image view.Can i add the image inside the list view ( Now image is not scrollable ).
activity.xml
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/img"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/def"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"/>
<ListView
android:id="#id/list"
android:layout_above="#+id/ad_view"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
</ListView>
</LinearLayout>
Activity.java
list = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list);
ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> productsList;
productsList = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
/*
adding data from database to productsList
*/
ListAdapter adapter =
new SimpleAdapter(this, productsList, R.layout.full, new String[]{"left", "right"},
new int[]{R.id.left, R.id.right});
list.setAdapter(adapter);
full.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center"
android:background="#drawable/background_border"
android:padding="15dp"
>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/left"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="cnsdsdsf:"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center"
/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/right"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="TextView"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center"
/>
</LinearLayout>

you can use
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(this);
listView.addHeaderView(imageView);
to add a imageView on the head of listview

You can treat the top row or any other row as special for the image. in getView() inflate with separate layout for that image according to position.

You can also modify your item list layout file (full.xml) and create a custom listview adapter. This method will give you more freedom in terms of design. You can play around with this full.xml
full.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingLeft="64dp"
android:paddingRight="32dp"
android:paddingTop="4dp"
android:paddingBottom="4dp"
tools:background="#ffaa00">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/studentPicture"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:src="#drawable/student_picture"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/left"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/studentPicture"
android:layout_toEndOf="#+id/studentPicture"
android:textColor="#ffffffff"
android:textSize="20sp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/right"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/left"
android:layout_toEndOf="#+id/left"
android:textColor="#ffffffff"
android:textSize="20sp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp" />
</RelativeLayout>
Then you create a adapter that will use this list item layout file:
StudentsAdapter.java
import android.content.Context;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.BaseAdapter;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class StudentsAdapter extends BaseAdapter{
private Context mContext;
private String[] mNames;
private String[] mOtherInfo;
public StudentsAdapter (Context context, String[] mNames, String[] mOtherInfo) {
mContext = context;
mNames = students;
mOtherInfo = mOtherInfo;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return mNames.length;
}
#Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
return mNames[position];
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return 0;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
ViewHolder holder;
if (convertView == null) {
//brand new
convertView = LayoutInflater.from(mContext).inflate(R.layout.full, null);
holder = new ViewHolder();
holder.studentImageView = (ImageView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.studentPicture);
holder.left= (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.left);
holder.right= (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.right);
convertView.setTag(holder);
}
else {
holder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
}
//here you set the picture, name, etc.
holder.studentImageView.setImageResource(/* your method to find specific image view */);
holder.left.setText(mNames[position]);
holder.right.setText(mOtherInfo[position]);
return convertView;
}
private static class ViewHolder {
ImageView studentImageView;
TextView left;
TextView right;
}
}
Your activity.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin">
<ListView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#android:id/empty"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:text="No data to display"
android:textColor="#ffffffff"/>
</RelativeLayout>
And now implement this adapter in your Activity.java
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.TextView;
import java.util.Arrays;
public class Activity extends Activity {
//you will need to set this data
private String[] mNames;
private String[] mOtherInfo;
ListView mListView;
TextView mEmptyTextView;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity);
mListView = (ListView) findViewById(android.R.id.list);
mEmptyTextView = (TextView) findViewById(android.R.id.empty);
DayAdapter adapter = new DayAdapter(this, mNames, mOtherInfo);
mListView.setAdapter(adapter);
mListView.setEmptyView(mEmptyTextView);
}
}

Custom listview doesnot show all data present in my List

Here is the Adapter class that doesn't work properly.
It always shows me 3 rows even if I'm passing 5 values in List as an parameter.
Can anyone tell me where is the problem in my adapter class.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks:)
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import com.example.mis.R;
import com.mis.adapter.Chk_Model;
import com.mis.database.DatabaseHandler;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.CheckBox;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class ThreeTextViewAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> {
Context context;
List<String> orderNum=new ArrayList<String>();
TextView txtOrd1,txtShip1,txtStatus;
DatabaseHandler handler;
public ThreeTextViewAdapter(Context context, List<String> ordNo) {
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
super(context, R.layout.threetextview,ordNo);
this.context=context;
this.orderNum=ordNo;
handler=new DatabaseHandler(context);
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
ViewHolder viewHolder=null;
final int pos = position;
if (convertView == null) {
viewHolder=new ViewHolder();
convertView = LayoutInflater.from(getContext()).inflate(
R.layout.threetextview, parent, false);
viewHolder.txtOrd1=(TextView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.txtfirst_detail_expo);
viewHolder.txtShip1=(TextView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.txtsec_detail_expo);
viewHolder.txtStatus=(TextView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.txtthird_detail_expo);
convertView.setTag(viewHolder);
}
else {
viewHolder = (ViewHolder) convertView
.getTag();
}
viewHolder.txtOrd1.setText(orderNum.get(pos));
handler.getReadableDatabase();
Cursor cursor=handler.getShipNo(orderNum.get(pos));
handler.closeDatabase();
String shipNo=cursor.getString(0);
if(shipNo.equals(null))
{
viewHolder.txtShip1.setText("Not Exported");
viewHolder.txtStatus.setText("Failed");
}
else
{
viewHolder.txtShip1.setText(shipNo);
System.out.println("y"+shipNo);
viewHolder.txtStatus.setText("Passed");
System.out.println("z"+"Passed");
}
return convertView;
}
private static class ViewHolder
{
TextView txtOrd1,txtShip1,txtStatus;
}
}
Here, I have attached my code where I'm initializing my adapter.
I have converted Set to list.
Set<String> keySet = ordShipNo.keySet();
Iterator it = keySet.iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
String key = (String) it.next();
ordExported.add(ordShipNo.get(key));
}
adapter = new ThreeTextViewAdapter(this, ordExported);
lststatus.setAdapter(adapter);
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
Here is my Xml layout file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#drawable/blue_2"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<HorizontalScrollView
android:id="#+id/scroll_full_mpr"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="189dp"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/lay_fullTitle_mpr_mpr"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#267ad4"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:padding="5dp" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txt_OrderLstOrdNo_mpr"
android:layout_width="230dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/pn"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txt_ShipNo_mpr"
android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center|left"
android:text="#string/receipt_no"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txt_status_mpr"
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center|left"
android:text="#string/st"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:textStyle="bold" />
</LinearLayout>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/lst_msefullresult_mpr"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="400dp" >
</ListView>
</LinearLayout>
</HorizontalScrollView>
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_mseOkResult_mpr"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="45dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:text="#string/ok" />
</RelativeLayout>
And this the custom layout of 3 textviews.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtfirst_detail_expo"
android:layout_width="230dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:textSize="20dp"
android:text="" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtsec_detail_expo"
android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/txtfirst_detail_expo"
android:textSize="20dp"
android:text="" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtthird_detail_expo"
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:textSize="20dp"
android:text="" />
</RelativeLayout>

As Jorge suggest, overRide getCount of your adapter like this and return the size of the list.
#Override
public int getCount() {
return orderNum.size();
}
and if it failed to solve the problem, then give me your code where you setting the adapter to the listView.

Android theme not affecting TextViews inside list item

I have a theme used throughout the app, in the theme the text color is simply declared like this:
android:textColor="#android:color/black"
For a TextView located inside of an activity the color is applied just fine. However when I create a TextView inside of a list item (inflated by an adapter) the text color is white instead.
Does anyone know what style needs to be declared in the theme for list items to be affected?
Full XML for the list item:
<CheckBox
android:id="#+id/lt_checkbox"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="8dp"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/lt_length"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#id/lt_checkbox"
android:textSize="24dp"/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_margin="8dp"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#id/lt_length"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/lt_title"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="12dp"
android:textSize="18dp"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/lt_subtitle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="14dp"/>
</LinearLayout>
XML for the list:
<ListView
android:id="#+id/altl_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
And the adapter:
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
LocalTrack track = getItem(position);
ItemHolder holder;
if(convertView == null || convertView.getTag() == null) {
convertView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.listem_track, parent, false);
holder = new ItemHolder();
holder.title = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.lt_title);
holder.length = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.lt_length);
holder.checkbox = (CheckBox) convertView.findViewById(R.id.lt_checkbox);
convertView.setTag(holder);
}
else
holder = (ItemHolder) convertView.getTag();
holder.title.setText(track.getTitle());
holder.length.setText(Helpbot.convertMillisToTrackLength(track.getLength()));
holder.checkbox.setChecked(mSelectedTracks.contains(track));
return convertView;
}

This happens because you are inflating the row layout of your ListView with the Context of your Application (LayoutInflater.from(getApplicationContext()); or some other derivative), instead of using your Activity's Context.
The difference between the Context you will get from getApplicationContext() and Activity.this lays in the implementation of Context for either of them.
Both Context, the Application's Context and the Activity's gets wrapped inside a ContextWrapper and proxy their calls to an internal "Base" Context.
The difference here is that the Application class is a singleton and only has one global implementation for your whole Application, while each Activity - since inheriting from ContextWrapper as well - has it's own unique implementation for each Activity.
Now that's why getApplication() doesn't - and can't - obey the rules of the themes you defined in your manifest, but the Context provided by your Activity does/can.
I highly recommend you to read Dave Smith's article about Contexts.

Actually, you can set a default style for TextViews like this for all the app or activity,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<style name="MyTheme" parent="android:Theme">
<item name="android:textViewStyle">#style/MyTextViewStyle</item>
</style>
<style name="MyTextViewStyle" parent="android:Widget.TextView">
<item name="android:textColor">#F00</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
</style>
</resources>
and set the theme as your activity's theme.

Custom list view is not diplaying properly

I have created an app which uses a custom listview Fragment. But the custom listview is not displaying properly.
below attached is my screen shot.
ANd here is my Xml file of individual row item

You should set your fragment's layout something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ListView
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</<LinearLayout>
I think the problem is with height of your Views, thats why try it with match_parent.

Your are building a custom array adapter but your are not setting the parameters in your row fields.
Take a look at this adapter implementation, there are comments explaining every step:
private class CustomArrayAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<RowData>
{
private ArrayList<RowData> list;
//this custom adapter receives an ArrayList of RowData objects.
//RowData is my class that represents the data for a single row and could be anything.
public CustomArrayAdapter(Context context, int textViewResourceId, ArrayList<RowData> rowDataList)
{
//populate the local list with data.
super(context, textViewResourceId, rowDataList);
this.list = new ArrayList<RowData>();
this.list.addAll(rowDataList);
}
public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
//creating the ViewHolder we defined earlier.
ViewHolder holder = new ViewHolder();)
//creating LayoutInflator for inflating the row layout.
LayoutInflater inflator = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
//inflating the row layout we defined earlier.
convertView = inflator.inflate(R.layout.row_item_layout, null);
//setting the views into the ViewHolder.
holder.title = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.tvItemTitle);
holder.changeRowStatus = (ImageView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.iStatus);
holder.changeRowStatus.setTag(position);
//define an onClickListener for the ImageView.
holder.changeRowStatus.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View v)
{
Toast.makeText(activity, "Image from row " + position + " was pressed", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
holder.checked = (CheckBox) convertView.findViewById(R.id.cbCheckListItem);
holder.checked.setTag(position);
//define an onClickListener for the CheckBox.
holder.checked.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View v)
{
//assign check-box state to the corresponding object in list.
CheckBox checkbox = (CheckBox) v;
rowDataList.get(position).setChecked(checkbox.isChecked());
Toast.makeText(activity, "CheckBox from row " + position + " was checked", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
//setting data into the the ViewHolder.
holder.title.setText(RowData.getName());
holder.checked.setChecked(RowData.isChecked());
//return the row view.
return convertView;
}
}

try this....

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
Change layout_height to fill_parent

Create and add listview to layout at runtime

I have design like this
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.20"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/backbutton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Back" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/nextbutton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="next" />
</LinearLayout>
<!-- the two columns part -->
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.80"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.80"
android:id="#+id/submenue"
>
<!-- this will be the menue list -->
<ListView
android:id="#+id/MyHiddenListView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:visibility="gone"
>
</ListView>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/contents"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="First Name" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.20"
android:id="#+id/mainLayout"
>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="second Name" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
I added the following code to the next button such that it display and fill the list
this.next = (Button)this.findViewById(R.id.nextbutton);
this.next.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
String[] MainMenue = new String[] { "aaaa", "bbb", "ccc"};
menueview = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.MyHiddenListView);
menueview.setVisibility(ListView.VISIBLE);
menueview.setAdapter(new submenueadapter(getApplicationContext(), MainMenue));
}
});
and the adaptor class is
package com.appnetics;
import android.content.Context;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class submenueadapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> {
private final Context context;
private final String[] values;
public submenueadapter(Context context,String[] objects)
{
super(context, R.layout.main, objects);
this.context = context;
this.values = objects;
}
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context
.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View rowView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.main, parent, false);
TextView textView = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.contents);
textView.setText(values[position]);
// Change icon based on name
String s = values[position];
System.out.println(s);
return rowView;
}
}
the problem is that the list be populated with the array plus the other controls in the page (the 2 buttons )
the layout before clicking next
the layout after clicking
any idea to fix that please
Best regards

The main problem is that you are including everything in one main.xml layout.
And due to this problem, you are getting back/next button for every listitem (Actually whole layout is being repeating as Listitem).
Soluition:
Instead, Try to define separate layout for the ListItem and inflate that layout inside the getView() method. so there must be 2 XML layouts file, one is having main design with ListView only, and another one with only views that you want for every list item.
for example, (1) main.xml (2) row_item.xml
Now, you just need to make correction in code of inflating layout:
View rowView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row_item, parent, false); // row_item.xml is inflated here

ViewGroup class do offers various methods to add view anywhere and using LayoutParams classes you can pass the various parent container class specific attributes to applied over the child view to be added in the container.
That you can google and is easily doable.
I can also think of putting a ListView in the XML with the Visibility GONE.
And on specific action trigger make it visible. That will prevent me doing various programing stuff required to add view at a perticular position.
And i also don't feel any harm of this approach.
e.g
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/backbutton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Back" />
<ListView
android:id="#+id/MyHiddenListView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:visibility="gone" />
</Linearlayout>
In the .java file
btnBack = (Button)findViewById(R.id.backbutton);
myListView = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.MyHiddenListView);
btnBack.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
myListView.setVisibility(ListView.VISIBLE);
myListView.setAdaptor(new MyListViewAdaptor());
}
});
Hope it helps :)
