Please Help me for getting the selected Item from a ListView. Items for the ListView are getting from a xml file. Elements of the ListView are filled up by the adapter(adpter contains ImageView and textView). I only need the TextView content from the ListView.By using the onItemClick i get only the index of the item.
Thank You
Using getSelectedItem() is the correct thing to do. You get a null value back when no item is selected.
If I remember true, getSelectedItem() just use if your Activity is ListActivity.
In normal Activity, and you add a component ListView. here is an example code, wish you can follow it :
private ListView listContainer; public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.view);
listContainer = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listContainer);
listContainer.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adView, View target, int postion, long id) {
alert("notice", "you have selected: " + id); }
});
protected void alertbox(String title, String mymessage) {
new AlertDialog.Builder(this).setMessage(mymessage).setTitle(title).setCancelable(true)
.setNeutralButton(android.R.string.cancel, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton){}
}).show();
}

I am working on a project which uses a TableLayout, and the user can add a new row to the table layout. Each new row is inflated as a new view and then the view is added to the table layout. One of the controls within the row is an AutoCompleteTextView.
The user can start typing into the AutCompleteTextView and then select one of the items in the suggestion list, when the user selects the item, the selected item is added to the text box as expected, but I want to then set the cursor position as the user can then change the value of the text. For example, the selected item might be sometext() but they can amend the text after selecting it to become sometext(25), so I am trying to set the position of the cursor within the brackets.
This is working fine for one AutoCompleteTextView in the layout but I can't figure out how to do it when its dynamically generated.
I'm finding the AutoCompleteTextView from the inflated layout and creating a set on item click listener, and using the view parameter in the OnItemClick function to ensure I am using the correct view that triggered the event handler, but on the setSelection I am getting an exception java.lang.ClassCastException: android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatTextView cannot be cast to android.widget.AutoCompleteTextView
Below is the code I am using:
private void addRow()
{
TableRow row = (TableRow)LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.create_table_column_row, createTable, false);
txtColumnName = row.findViewById(R.id.txtColumnName);
txtDataType = row.findViewById(R.id.txtDataType);
txtDataType.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View v)
{
txtDataType.showDropDown();
}
});
txtDataType.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id)
{
String selectedItem = parent.getItemAtPosition(position).toString();
//Check if the string has a ( and if so, set the cursor to be just after it so the user can enter the size
int bracketPos = selectedItem.indexOf("(");
if (bracketPos > 0)
{
//Crashes on this line
((AutoCompleteTextView)view).setSelection(bracketPos+1);
}
}
});
List<String> datatypes = Arrays.asList(getResources().getStringArray(R.array.table_datatypes));
datatypeAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<>(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, datatypes);
txtDataType.setAdapter(datatypeAdapter);
rowViews.add(row);
createTable.addView(row);
}
I tried casting the view to AppCompatTextView but then this doesn't have the setSelection() method.
The view in onItemClick() is the AppCompatTextView that is clicked in the drop down box for the AutoCompleteTextView. That is why you can't cast it.
Since you have multiple AutoCompleteTextViews, use a focus change listener to capture which AutoCompleteTextView is being addressed by the user. You can then use that value to set the position of the cursor.
private AutoCompleteTextView textView;
private AutoCompleteTextView mAuto;
textView.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
mAuto = (AutoCompleteTextView) v;
}
});
textView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
Log.d("MainActivity", "<<<<onItemClicked");
int bracketPos = textView.getText().toString().indexOf("(");
if (bracketPos > 0) {
mAuto.setSelection(bracketPos + 1);
}
}
});
I believe that the AutoCompleteTextView is already populated when this method is called, so you could just search for ( within that field.
Here is a slightly different way. After
txtDataType = row.findViewById(R.id.txtDataType);
add
txtDataType.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
private AutoCompleteTextView mAutoView;
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
mAutoView = (AutoCompleteTextView) v;
mAutoView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
Log.d("MainActivity", "<<<<onItemClicked");
int bracketPos = mAutoView.getText().toString().indexOf("(");
if (bracketPos > 0) {
mAutoView.setSelection(bracketPos + 1);
}
}
});
}
});
You can delete your other listeners.
I am having a layout consisting of ListView and a label. Look at the image below.
I implemented listview using base adapter in a seperate .java file.
Could anyone suggest me how can i set text to the label on click of list item?
EDITED :
The text of the label should be number of list items clicked.
Suppose i clicked a button in a list item, the label should be set to 1.
Similarly in the next attempt if i clicked another list item's button it should be set to 2 and so.. on..
Sir,
What you are saying is this, you have your adapter in one class and the activity in another file. Well you could do this, to update the textview.
pass the context to the activity, and if its in the adapter you are maintaining the count then once the count has been updated,
then, assume you have this method in the activity
public void updateTextView(int count) {
// enter your code here to set the count in the textview
}
and from the baseAdapter call the above method like this:
if(mContext != null) {
((YourActivity)mContext).updateTextView(mCount);
}
and the textview in the activity will be updated!
I hope it helps.
In your OnItemClickListener call adapter.getItem(int position) to retrieve the object from the collection backing your BaseAdapter. From there, you should be able to retrieve any fields you need.
Edit:
Your edit clears up the question. Updated answer:
private int mCounter = 0;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// ListView listView = getYourListView();
listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
mCounter++;
updateTextView();
}
});
if(savedInstanceState != null) {
mCounter = savedInstanceState.getInt("counter", 0);
}
updateTextView();
}
#Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
outState.putInt("counter", mCounter);
}
private void updateTextView() {
// TextView textView = getYourTextView();
textView.setText(String.valueOf(mCounter));
}
Just OnItemClickListener in your ListView then in the onClick you will get a value arg2 which is the position of the item which is clicked.
Just get that value from the ArrayList from which you are displaying the ListView and show it...
Hope this is what you need if I have not misunderstood your question.
try this code
listview.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
long arg3) {
String itemText=(String) arg0.getItemAtPosition(arg2);
yourLable.setText(itemText);
}
});
In onListItemClick call list.getItemAtPosition(position) to retrieve item text
then set this text to textview1.setText(listText).
First Implement your onItemClickListener, where you will get int arg2 parameter, which is position, so get that position and do your stuff whatever you want like below.
list.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
long arg3) {
LABLE.setText(""+arg2);
}
});
Check this code
public class ListA extends ListActivity {
private TextView selection;
private static final String[] items={"Item 1", "Item 2", "Item 3"};
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
super.onCreate(icicle);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_list);
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,
items));
selection=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.selection);
}
#Override
public void onListItemClick(ListView parent, View v, int position,
long id) {
selection.setText(position);
}
}
I'm just learning how to use ListViews. I got it working, but wont to be able to respond when some one clicks a item.
I'm trying to use the setOnItemClickListener method to take a call back for when a item is clicked on. But my code will not compile due to errors in method setOnItemClickListener
r
Right now i get a error that says
setOnItemClickListener is not applicable for arguments OnItemClickListener();
void SetUpList()
{
listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.mylist);
String[] values = new String[] { "Android", "iPhone", "WindowsMobile"};
EventsAdapter adapter = new EventsAdapter(this, cGlobals.eventsTitle);
// Assign adapter to ListView
listView.setAdapter(adapter);
// this is whare I get the error listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
// When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text
}
});
}
}
First make sure you have imported this class:
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener;
Next you need to call setOnItemClickListener() like so:
listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override // "#Override" is required for Java 1.6, but forbidden in 1.5
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
// Do Something
}
});
Or if your activity implements OnItemClickListener: You need to add the onItemClick() method outside your onCreate() method:
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Do Something
}
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
// Do something else
}
(Of course, if you are extending a ListActivity or ListFragment you should override onListItemClick() instead of onItemClick() like the second approach.)
If I have 2 or more listviews in one activity,then how do I use a onclicklistener? I mean How do I know on which one of them the user click?
public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View v, int position, long id) {
}
The above code is what I used,however when I try to use another listview,I just can't find a way to detect which listview is clicked.
Any ideeas to solve this?
In this case, the parent is the listView from which the itemClick originated. So what you can do is keep a member variable for each ListView and compare the parent to those members to see which list triggered the click.
So here's a simple class with what I mean:
public class MyTest extends Activity{
private ListView list1;
private ListView list2;
public void onCreate(Bundle b){
super.onCreate(b);
list1 = new ListView();
list2 = new ListView(); //or findViewById if you declared them in your layout
//the rest of your creation code here
}
public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View v, int position, long id) {
if(list1 == parent){
//handle list1 click
}else{
//handle list 2 click
}
}
}
There are two ways you can do it.
Implement OnItemClickListener
public class ListViewTest extends Activity implements OnItemClickListener {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View view, int arg2, long arg3) {
if(view ==myListView)1{
}
if(view ==myListView){
}
}
}
Set your own listener
myListView.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO: click on second listview
}
});
You can do it as this:
listView1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO: click on first listview
}
});
listView2.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO: click on second listview
}
});
its pretty simple ,
only one list can act as the official list under a ListActivity and this list (and only this list) should have the special list id (#android:list i think) so just set the id of the other list to some other id and set its setOnItemClickListener to do whatever you want. I currently work on an app with 2 listViews and an additional list Fragment.
I have created a ListView where I have to add different items. Now, when I click on a particular item it displays another window. On that window, I want to display the name of that item which I click on the ListView.
My code:
private ListView contactList;
private String lv_arr[]={"Android","iPhone","BlackBerry","AndroidPeople"};
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle)
{
super.onCreate(icicle);
setContentView(R.layout.contact_activity);
contactList=(ListView)findViewById(R.id.ListView01);
contactList.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String (this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1 , lv_arr));
contactList.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
/*Intent myIntent = new Intent(view.getContext(), CallActivity.class);
startActivity(myIntent);*/
}
});
}
you have to get the name of the item on itemclick event. pass it to the activity which will be called. in in the calling activity get the name of item and display
contactList.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
String selecteditem = lv_arr[position];
Intent myIntent = new Intent(view.getContext(), CallActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("item", selecteditem);
startActivity(myIntent);
}
});
In CallActivity.java
write the following to get the selected item name
String selectedItem=getIntent().getStringExtra("item");
Instead of starting a new activity, use AlertDialog. You already have the position of the list item clicked. So displaying it on the dialog shouldn't be a problem if you follow the article linked.
EDIT :
As per your requirement, you have to launch a new activity to display a string
In the sending list activity
intent.putExtra(String key, String value)
In receiving activity,
String value = getIntent().getStringExtra(key);
