I'm trying to find a way to open resources which name is determined at runtime only. Let me explain in more details. I want to have a XML that references a bunch of other XML files in the application apk. for the purpose of explaining lets say the main XML is main.xml and the other XML are file1.xml file2.xml...fileX.xml...
what i want is to read main.xml, extract the name of the xml I want (fileX.xml) for example. and then read fileX.XML. the problem I face is that what I extract form main.xml is a string and I can't find a way to change that to R.raw.nameOfTheFile
I'm dealing with a problem you guys might not have faced earlier. I'm having a use-case in my Android application where the actual screen that I want to show to user is not stored in any layout file of my application. The layout of the of the screen is designed by server in this case, based on selection made by user on first screen.
Let me elaborate here,
1st Screen : List of check box with different biller names. (Imagine I've selected 2 billers from this screen)
2nd Screen : (The screen that server has decided how it should look like)
* Header,
* 1st Biller name (Label)
* Amount for 1st Biller TextBox
* Image (a Separator image)
* 2st Biller name (Label)
* Amount for 2st Biller TextBox.
* Here there can be a checbox/radio/another TextBox anything.
* Image (a Separator image)
* Button (to submit above form back to server)
I hope makes some sense in what I'm planning to design. The current issues I'm dealing with are as below.
1). How to draw this dynamic widgets?
2). How to fetch user Inputs from this dynamically created widgets?
I would like to make a single Android app for multiple Android versions (possibly every one of them)
My problem is that I want to check what is the version of Android the app is currently running on, and dynamically load a class which is version dependent. This part should be ok.
I just wonder how I can achieve that without compilation errors in my Eclipse project. I mean, the project is configured for a particular target (1.5, 2.1 ...), so if a class in my project is not compatible wich the selected target, it will result in errors.
Is there a way to export this classes even if they are not fit for the platform (I thought about a separated lib, but then again : how to compile theses classes into a lib without compilation pbs?) ? This should be ok since they won't be loaded until I ask them to after having checked Android version.
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 currently have a ListView being filled by a custom Adapter with content it gets from a JSON string on a web page. The ListView's row layout is a LinearLayout that has two things in it, one AdMob layout and one TextView. The AdMob layout's visibility is by default set to Gone.What I want to do make every 5th row's AdMob layout visible. The current way I am doing this is by Overriding getView in my custom adapter (something I already had programmer to get my rows to have alternating colours), within this I keep track of the position variable and see if I have moved down 5 rows yet. When I have I find the AdView object and set it to visible. This works fine for a while but for some reason as I scroll down more on my list the ads become every other instead of every five. This doesn't make any sense to me because I have set up logcat to tell me when it reaches my "make ad visible code" and according to that I should not be having double ads. Has this happened to anyone else before? I'm not quite sure how to handle this situation.

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.

I want to dynamically load a ListView, for example, load them during the scrolling so its not loading all 100 posts I have. How can I achieve this?
I have looked at similiar solutions here at SO, but since I not got it to work, I asked this question.

I have in the same .java file, functions to download the info from the web and loop through 100 items, like this:

I am wondering if which of the two is better in loading images in a listview from web, is it by batch through some number of threads that are running simultaneously or one by one through thread queue? I have noticed (but I don't know if that is really the implementation) from the youtube app that the images are loaded by batch and it is kinda fast. Even for not only loading images but also requesting some data from the web as well. Does anyone have an idea?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI try to implements lazy loading of images in a listview. There is no android features to make this, so I should implement it by myself. Have anyone already done this?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI trying a hand at ListViews and my current experiment is aimed at displaying some data in a ListView. The data to be displayed in each row is simple: an image and some text. The images come from a remote server and the textual data is hardcoded. I have a class that downloads images using AsyncTask and caches the list of images fetched as SoftReferences in a LinkedHashMap. I am also passing a reference of the view to this class, so when the image download/cache read is complete the class will set appropriate Bitmap in the view.

I implemented the lazy-loading images in my ListView. I use a AsyncTask to download the image from the internet and bind it to the ImageView in the UIThread. It's working except that when I scroll the ListView vary fast, the downloaded images sometimes are binded into the wrong items in the list.I guess the problem is from the reuse of convertView in the BaseAdapter.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my Android App I have a listview containing 30 rows, and each row consists of several textviews of which one is spannable and sometimes contains a lot of formatted text and images. Those images are loaded from the web asynchroneously: A placeholder is displayed until the image has been downloaded is then replaced by the image. Unfortunately, the rows of the listview are loaded when I scroll over them. This makes the whole thing very slow. Also, those images are loaded from the web again and again, whenever I scroll over the row. can I turn it off, that the ListView rows are loaded when I scroll over them? They should be loaded once when I start the activity and never again.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHere are 4 references that I have found for lazy-loading images into a listview in Android. The idea is to display a placeholder image, get the actual image in the background, update the ImageView in the list when the image is available. I've tried to do this in the simplest way possible using an AsyncTask in an Adapter. The outline of that approach is below. Is it flawed? Is there an agreed approach to handling this common task?

View 2 Replies View RelatedThis is a very common scenario: displaying images in a ListView which have to be downloaded from the internet.Right now I have a custom subclass of ArrayAdapter which I use for the ListView. In my getView() implementation of the ArrayAdapter, I spawn a separate thread to load an image. After the loading is done, it looks up the appropriate ImageView and sets the image with ImageView.setImageDrawable(). So the solution I used is kind of similar to this one: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/541966/android-how-do-i-do-a-lazy-load-of-images-in-listviewThe problem I'm having is that as soon as I make the call to setImageDrawable() on the ImageView, the ListView somehow refreshes all currently visible rows in the list!

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to laod the listview dynamically. There are three textviews inside a listview. The text to be set in the textview is fetched from the server. All this is working fine. I am able to fetch the text and am able to display it inside the listview.
The only problem is the position of the textview. The xml layout file is as under:
CODE:.............
If I look at this xml layout in the eclipse layout tab then it is displayed properly. Problem occurs only when the text is fetched dynamically.
I have a listview that is populated by a couple threads that pull in data from the network. Before that data comes in, there are some default values displayed. When the screen loads, there are 6 items displayed, each with the default data. The 1st (index 0) loads and is updated on the screen, and then number 6 (index 5) is updated with that same info. Then, item 2 (index 1) loads, and then item 5 (index 4) mirrors that data. Then item 3 loads, then item 4 reloads with the correct data, then then item 5 with the correct data, then item 6. Why are items 5 and 6 briefly showing the data from other elements in the list? I can't figure out what in the world could be causing this.

I'm pretty new to Android development and I just hit a brick wall in the development of an app, I'm currently working on.
The problem is that I have a list of locations (states), and when one is selected, a list of cities from that state is loaded via http request and JSON and then is supposed to be inserted into a listview in another activity.
So now I have the StateList activity and the CityList activity. Currently, the statelist activity starts the citylist activity via an intent and gives it a state name. Then, the citylist activity uses that name and requests data from a server via AsyncTask. As result I get an array of City objects, which are supposed to be inserted into an adapter for a listview.
Now begins my problem: I don't want the second activity to show up before all data is loaded. I also don't want the first activity to do the request and then have to transfer the whole result to the second activity using intent extras.
So what would I have to do now to have the second activity load all the data and only then really show up? I tried only setting the content view after receiving the data, but since the base class onCreate() is tied to some manipulation of the layout, I would also have to call onCreate() at that point, which is not allowed.
Here some code snippets of what I tried already:
The onCreate() method of my second activity (which is supposed to hide):
[high]protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
// send request for citylist data
CitylistRequest request = new CitylistRequest(this, new State(0, getIntent().getExtras().getString("state")));
request.execute();

This is the layout that I am inflating in the Adapter. Everything is displayed, but only the second textview which should be displayed at the bottom is getting displayed at the top. Can someone let me know the problem with this?
I I view this in the layout tab in Eclipse then it displays properly. The problem occurs only when the text is fetched dynamically.
I want to display a fancy 'loading' image at my app's startup time.
The problem: my startup code is mostly GUI related, hence needs to run on UI thread.
Is there a way to do both - that is run UI-related code on UI thread while an image is displayed to the user?
I've looked through the documentation and I can't seem to figure out how to have the screen blured/greyed when I select an activity that may take a while to load.
This seems to be an Android standard (both the Camera app and the Camcorder app do it when first selected), but I don't see any documentation on it. I even tried looking through the source of these apps on git, but couldn't seem to find it.
