Autocomplete-Textview with listener - android

My question is very basic, as is my experience! Sorry about the length of the post!
I am trying to create an AutoCompleteTextView with a listener so that I can do "stuff" when an item is selected.
The AutoCompleteTextView works fine, in so far as I can type in 2 characters and then select an item from the list which appears.
But the application never executes the listener code.
All my code, xml and log trace is here, so what is the simple piece that I am missing?
I've searched all the questions and it seems to be a common problem but none of the (very few) answers work for me.
Any help will be appreciated.

You are setting wrong Listener for AutoCompleteTextView. You have to set addTextChangedListener() and do the processing in the override methods of addTextChangedListener.

Android Initial Login Screen then use fragments to swipe between screens once login is successful

I am trying to create an Android app, then has an initial login screen that detects if a user is Admin or User. Once logged in, the user (depending on their role) will see different tabs to swipe between. I have a basic app that starts with a login activity and the login to decipher the users roles (using static values for now). First part is ok. Now when I try to use Fragments after the login screen, I'm getting stuck.
I have a LoginActivity that has an onClikcListener on a button after user enters credentials. Depending on whether the user is Amin or General Users, it will just to a new activity either activity_vote_admin or activity_vote_user. At this point I am stuck. Any ideas if what I am trying to do is valid. Or is there a better way to do this. At the moment I am getting this error.
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.example.confidencevotefragmentrebuild/com.example.confidencevotefragmentrebuild.activity_vote_admin}: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void android.view.View.setOnClickListener(android.view.View$OnClickListener)' on a null object reference.

...
There are two reason for this issue :
You didn't declare any button on "activity_vote_main_admin.xml", thats why your view not binding with activity and giving null pointer exception.
May be you declare the button on fragment xml and trying to bind it with activity.

How to put an x or cancel in AutoCompleteTextView Android [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
how can I create clean Button in AutoCompleteTextView
(3 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
This is the app that I am developing.
I am using AutoCompleteTextView.
I want to put an X inside it. Can you help me adding that?
Here is my code
MainActivity.class
package com.example.guidemo3;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;

import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.AutoCompleteTextView;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
AutoCompleteTextView autocomplete;
String[] stateName = { "France", "Philippines","Brazil",
"Italy", "United States"};
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
autocomplete = (AutoCompleteTextView)
findViewById(R.id.autoCompleteTextView1);
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>
(this,android.R.layout.simple_dropdown_item_1line, stateName);
autocomplete.setThreshold(1);
autocomplete.setAdapter(adapter);
autocomplete.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
String stateName = autocomplete.getAdapter().getItem(position).toString();
// Put selected state to intent.
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, NextActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("selectedState", stateName);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
TextView cancelButton = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.cancelButton);
cancelButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
autocomplete.setText("");
}
});
}
}
activity.xml

android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:ems="20"

<TextView
android:id="#+id/cancelButton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text=" X "
android:textColor="#000"/>
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
You have to put a LinearLayout around your AutoCompleteTextView
Then add your Background to that Layout
Place a TextView with an " X " as Text inside that Layout an add an OnClickListener.
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/search_view_border"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:id="#+id/autoCompleteTextView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:ems="20"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:hint="Search"
android:padding="10dp">
<requestFocus/>
</AutoCompleteTextView>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/cancelButton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text=" X "
android:textColor="#color/colorPrimaryDark"/>
</LinearLayout>
OnClickListener would look like this:
cancelButton = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.cancelButton);
cancelButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
autocomplete.setText("");
}
});

Simply I want to create a basic shopping app that have 20 products. the price and product name will come from server and quantity will input by user so how do I that?
You are looking for something like this
int count = container.getChildCount();
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
final View row = container.getChildAt(i);
TextView textOut = (TextView)row.findViewById(R.id.textout);
String data = textOut.getText().toString();
}
Where container is your LinearLayout in which you have added your inflated rows.
Try this:-
To take user input from text box:-
int qty = Integer.parseInt(qtyTextBox.getText().toString());
Caluculate bill:-
double bill = price*qty;
Send bill value to next activity:-
Intent in = new Intent();
in.putExtra("Bill", bill);
startActivity(in);
Get bill value in next activity:-
Intent in = getIntent();
int mBill = in.getExtra("Bill");
string bill = String.valueOf(mBill);
Now you can set the value of 'bill' to the TextView where you want to display it.

Trouble catching onClick event from listview

I'm asking my user for a postcode via an editText then i use a button to fetch and display store locations in a listView using a simpleCursorAdapter.
Now i want to be able to launch a new activity by selecting an item in the listView and passing along some string information.
I can't get the onClickListener to register my clicks.
Is it because i'm using an Activity instead of a ListActivity?
I'd rather have both the input (the EditText) and the results (ListView) both in the same activity.

}
}
}
Do you have any clickable elements on the rows themselves? Please post the XML from R.layout.stockrow_group.
If you have buttons on that layout for example you might need to add the following to those buttons:
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
This will make sure the click on the list item is not getting blocked by the clickable item on the row itself.
The actual solution:
Do not make the rows of the listview clickable. This will "eat" up the click event by registering an empty click handler. Remove the following line from the rows of the list view:
android:clickable="true"
Implement AdapterView.onItemClickListener in your activity`
Change
listView.setOnItemClickListener(new android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener()
To
listView.setOnItemClickListener(this)
Add unimplemented methods

old listview still there

I have an activity that is works fine and displays data obtained from a table query. With an OnItemClick method, I have it set up so that if a row is selected, a new activity starts with a new ListView, but a lot of the elements from the original ListView are in the new listview, including a toggle button on each row, and a text view. Any idea what could be causing this?
This is the initial ListView. The buttons don't show up, just everything in the ListView:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#81BEF7"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/btnAddNurseToRoster"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/add"
android:focusable="true"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/btnRemoveNurseFromRoster"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/btnAddNurseToRoster"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/btnAddNurseToRoster"
android:text="#string/delete"
android:focusable="true"/>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/android:list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_below="#+id/btnAddNurseToRoster"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textStyle="bold"/>
</RelativeLayout>
New ListView:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#81BEF7"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tvAssignmentsText"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="25dp"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:text="Assignments"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:background="#663399"
/>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/lvAssignmentsList"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_below="#+id/tvAssignmentsText"
android:paddingTop="20dp"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textStyle="bold"/>
</
And here's the code that calls the new ListView:
package com.deadEddie.staffingmanagement;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.widget.SimpleCursorAdapter;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.ListAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
public class ShowAssignments extends Activity {
DbCommunicator getAssignmentsList;
ListView assignmentsList;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.assignments);
displayList();
}
private void displayList() {
// instantiate ListView object
assignmentsList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.lvAssignmentsList);
// instantiate variables for CursorAdapter
int [] to = new int [] {R.id.rbAssignmentsList };
String [] from = new String [] {DbCommunicator.KEY_ROOM_NUMBER};
// instantiate getAssignmentsList with new DbCommunicator object and open
getAssignmentsList = new DbCommunicator(this);
getAssignmentsList.open();
// get and manage cursor
Cursor assignmentsCursor = getAssignmentsList.getAssignments(this);
startManagingCursor(assignmentsCursor);
// list adapter
ListAdapter assignmentsListAdapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.nurse_list, assignmentsCursor, from, to, 0);
assignmentsCursor.moveToNext();
// set ListView
assignmentsList.setAdapter(assignmentsListAdapter);
assignmentsList.setItemsCanFocus(true);
}
}

Okay. Got it. Just realized that I mistakenly used the same layout (nurse_list) when I instantiate the ListAdapter in each method so it tried to apply my new data query to the original layout (which was screwed up of course). Thanks for taking a look though, really appreciate it.
Sorry if this wastes anyone's time. Maybe a lesson for other newbies out there.
