Android :: Dynamic ListView Extends Activity
Sep 26, 2010Is there anyway I can create a dynamically filled ListView when the class does not extend ListActivity?

Is there anyway I can create a dynamically filled ListView when the class does not extend ListActivity?
I'm trying to call a method from inside a Runnable that is running. It waits for a string to be entered and when it is then depending on the string (the strings act as commands) it calls a method and is supposed to run whats inside it. code...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI created a list view in an activity and the list shows some fields.When we click a list item a custom dialog should pop up and the user can enter some new value to this field.The custom dialog contains one edit text and two buttons ok and cancel.It is working fine.But when my list is more that means if it exceeds screen size it is showing scroll.But when we select bottom items which we can select using scroll the dialog is appearing in normal fashion.But after entering new value if i am trying to save the application is getting crashed.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a listview with custom rows and that extends SimpleAdapter.
Each row consist of two linear layouts : 1st having two textviews of which one is hidden in horizontal orientation, second having two textviews in horizontal orientation.
Now depending on the value in hidden textview , I want to setcolor for the remaining items for the row.
To put it as simple:
each listview item has some custom colors the value of which comes from the hidden field.
I have done this by overriding getview() for the simpleadapter and returning view for each, but this makes list very slow to render (and that I think is obvious as so much of work for each view before showing it).
Can I do this in some more efficient way ? like making views and then add up to list instead of using xml layout maybe one solution OR any other?
I am quite new to Android and Java
I am looking for example of how to use this class:
SingleLaunchActivityTestCase
Till now I am using class InstrumentationTestCase but the problem is that for each launched test case Android calling onSetup() and TearDown()
Can I use getCacheDir() only in a class that extends Activity? I would like to use it in an AsyncTask so that I can do the time intensive cache file saving in it.

I want to change at this line
public void onClick(View v) {layout.setVisibility(GONE);}
to
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent myIntentopen = new Intent(MainActivityold.class, MainActivitynew.class);
startActivity(myIntentopen);
}
but it dosn't work.
I have a simple activity program in android. Basically the class just extends Activity.
But when I start it I get a ClassCastException in the constructor of my class. I don't even have a constructor defined, so it must be in the constructor of the superclass which is Activity. Unfortunately the debugger doesn't give any detailed information on what class it is trying to cast. Here is the stacktrace:
Thread [<1> main] (Suspended (exception RuntimeException))
ActivityThread$PackageInfo.makeApplication(boolean, Instrumentation) line: 649
ActivityThread.handleBindApplication(ActivityThread$AppBindData) line: 4232

ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run() line: 868
ZygoteInit.main(String[]) line: 626
NativeStart.main(String[]) line: not available [native method]
And when I look into this runtimeexception I get:
detailMessage "Unable to instantiate application com.test.MyApp: java.lang.ClassCastException: com.test.MyApp" (id=830067694464)
The only code is:
package com.test;
import android.app.Activity;
public class MyApp extends Activity {
}
I have an app which contains an activity which is a MapviewActivity and is mostly a mapview.
However I have noticed that the start up time of the activity is really slow and causes a lag from the moment the button is pressed to go in to the map activity. I feel this creates a bad user experience and would like to avoid this.
I have already set the background of the map activity to @null as suggested by one of the UI improvement articles on googles developer page. Which I fell does not do the trick.
Is there a way to improve this? I would not like the main home screen to get stuck on the launch of the activity, even a transfer to the map activity and then loading the mapview would be better.
I'm doing that sample:

}
but it dosn't work.
My app crashes with a null pointer exception on the code below. I have an xml preference file under res/xml/defaults.xml
public class Preference extends Activity {
public Preference() {
} public String getPreference(String key)
{ //it still crashes here
SharedPreferences settings = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this.getApplicationContext());
String result = settings.getString(key, null); return result;
} }
I'd like to use different row descriptors (from the XML layout resource) in one ListView. Can I and how? Also, I'd like to be able to programmatically change the size of the rows, based on the data in each row, in a ListView. Can I and how?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI followed example as http://www.androidpeople.com/android-custom-dynamic-listview/
However I bump into problem applying autoscroll to bottom as listview.setTranscriptMode(ListView.TRANSCRIPT_MODE_DISABLED);
Where should I apply it?
I am making a time sheet program where a user inputs his in- and out-punches. I have a ListView that I am populating from an array of calendar objects. I would like each row to show the day and date then on a new line the time, but I only want to display the day and date if it is different from the previous element.Currently, I am setting visibility in the Base Adapter based on comparisons using position vs position-1 (which are used as indices to the array). This only works if the whole list fits on the screen. If it extends beyond the screen and the user scrolls around the results are unpredictable.To further confuse things, I am setting the color of the times, based on the position, to alternate between green and red (in/out) and it works as expected, scrolling or not.How does Android handle the ListView position when scrolling or what could I do differently to show/hide the day and date?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to get my first Android app stable enough for the marketplace, and I've hit a brick wall with one exception that I don't understand. Probably I'm doing something stupid, but I can't tell what, and after several hours googling and experimenting, I thought I'd see if I can get some help. My Activity extends ListActivity, and the parts I think are most important are extracted below:
GroupedListAdapter is a simple class that extends BasedAdapter to provide headings for sections of the list (not unlike the Fancy ListView tutorials that are floating around).
I create this in onCreate, and it works fine. Inside onListItemClick, I do some actions which will create a different set of list contents. I "clear" the adapter, which empties the contents, and call reload, which repopulates it. Then I call notifyDataSetChanged.
Most often, this seems to work, but also fairly often, I get the exception following the code snippets below - this seems to indicate the ListView is not in sync with my changes. Lately this crash happens 100% of the time under the simulator.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am writing my first Android application, and I have been struggling with this for over a week. It seems like the basis of all android applications yet I cannot understand how to do it. For example, if you are in the Android Settings Menu, you have a list and you click on "About", it takes you to the "About" Actvitiy etc.
I need my app to do that as well, I have 5 menu items that I want to be able to select and go to the Activity for the selected item.
Currently I have my items in a string_array, but I have nothing that corresponds the string name with the activity name I want to goto.
I have been trying to create a ListView Activity with an ImageView in every row. I've used this tutorial: http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/examp... The issue is that there are always some dividers missing whenever I run the example. The dividers are disappearing/appearing and flickering as i scroll the list (tested in emulator and HTC Tattoo). Strange is that the same example downloaded from the market (API Demos app) behaves correctly. Here is a screenshot of how it looks: http://yfrog.com/4cnokp.
