ListView Seems Only To Work With A Single Column
Oct 21, 2011
I am new to android development and have been tasked with developing an app. One of the screens will require there to be a list of people with some thumbnail information about them, similar to:
Code:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
[code]....
This information will be stored in an SQLite DB. Now I can see that listView seems only to work with a single column. What is the best way to go about this?

I have two files, one called "part1.txt" and another one called "part2.txt", which look like following
part1.txt part2.txt
lili like eating apple
lucy like playing football
Now i want to insert the contents of these two files into a single table with the schema
table_name(linefrompart1 varchar(100), linefrompart2 varchar(50))
My program reads the first file line by line and insert the data into the first column. But if it reads the second file and tries to insert the data line by line into the second column, it doesn't work the way i want. A table which i want should look like following
linefrompart1 linefrompart2
lili like eating apple
lucy like playing football
But instead i got the following table
linefrompart1 linefrompart2
lili null
lucy null
null like eating apple
null like playing football
Does somebody know how i can fix this problem?

I'm attempting to create a method that will allow me to retrieve a value from the last row of a database, and then insert it into an EditText field. (This is a value that the user will not change all that often, so it would be helpful if when they do set it, it stays set when they come back to it).
My method, based on a similar method I have for getting the total of a specific column, is as such. code...
If I run the program without this statement, it works fine and the value saves to the db. As soon as I try to run it with this, I get a force close. Any suggestions?

I have an android application that shows a grid view that shows:
1
2
3
4
GridView gridview=(GridView)findViewById(R.id.GridView_test);
DataBaseHelper dbhelper=new DataBaseHelper(this);
ArrayList<String> test=new ArrayList<String>(5);
backlinksadapter.add("1");
backlinksadapter.add("2");
backlinksadapter.add("3");
backlinksadapter.add("4");
ArrayAdapter mAdapter=new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, test);
gridview.setAdapter(mAdapter);
By the moment is working, but i would like to show foreach line of the grid, 2 columns with the values of a 2 dimensional array (something like the GridView in ASP.Net - as datasource -).
I would like to show:
1 | Person 1
2 | Person 2
3 | Person 3
4 | Person 4
Any idea?

Can someone please provide me a ListView row layout that will show text on the left (the full width of the screen) and just leave one right aligned column for a count on the right? Everything I try has the text overwrite the count column...

In the application I am working on now I came up with the following problem. I have list view which is displaying items with images in most cases it will be different image for different items (thumbnails about 60x60 pixels). So the problem is how can I handle image processing for the view. For know I have the following variants:
1. I can cache all bitmaps and when I try to display view I get bitmap from cache synchronously and display it. The problem is that 60x60=3600x4=14kb per bitmap which is waste of resources.
2. When I need to display view I can register event to some thread to decode the associated bitmap which will decode it in background and than to update gui. This sounds good for me the scrolling is still smooth because all image processing is done in background. Updating list view is bit jerky for now I am doing it view notifyDataSetChanged which is updating all visible views although I can update thumbnail for a single item.
So question one is is there better way the update single listview element than calling notifyDataSetChanged.

A simple ListView with, say, 6 rows (Views). Now, I want it to fit exactly a single screen. Any straightforward way to do this? Or should I go with a custom view?

How do you do you fetch a single RSS feed and show it in an ListView?
I realize there's hundreds of ways, but a clean and simple example would be appreciated.

I am having this issue where I am trying to have a single TextView span one to two lines, fill the cell completely (so you can also click edges of the cell and it will trigger) and center-align.
This is the layout for the cell:
CODE:...
However cells seems to be filled correctly ONLY if it happens to wrap around and end up spanning two lines of text. It shows center-aligned and you can click anywhere in the cell to trigger the click. The cells that do not span multiple lines of text are left-aligned and trigger (highlight) only if you click where the text is. There is a "numb" area which does not react to clicks inside the cell if the text is short.

This has got me all confused! I'm trying to return the max value from a column in my database but the return value is always the name of the column.
The query I use:
private static final String SELECTMAX = "SELECT MAX(?) FROM " + TABLE_NAME ;
The (test) function to return the max value:
CODE:............
The column i'm querying is an INTEGER type but the result 's' is always the column name and not the desired value.

I am facing problem in running application with HIGH & LOW density with single layout(xml file). I have read so many threads and verified developers.android site too..
All mentioned to specify the size of the components should be in dp or wrap_content or fill_content, then android itself take care of the density use,since android is density independent.
And also to place the layouts in layout-nodpi folder for density free. Then in one of the thread, they mentioned to use
<supports-screens android:resizeable="true"
android:largeScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true"
android:anyDensity="true"></supports-screens>.
I also tried by placing the layouts in ldpi,mdpi,xhdpi and hdpi.But no use.
I have tried all the above,but i couldnt get the application UI same in two different density.. I am using "Funbook micromax"[Normal density] and "Intex iBuddy"[Low density] model, both are 7 Inch.
use single layout to be work in all type of density and screen size..

I have Eclipse Juno and I'm working on an app with that.
The main activity will have a scrollable menu that takes you to all the other activities.
So the general structure/outline right now:[HIGH]Relative Layout ImageView (header logo type thing) ListView (the actual scrollable menu)[/HIGH]Here's the problem though... I can't find any simple list tutorials. I can easily make a single line list work but I need to make a two line list and one that is static, not dynamic and no examples are out there for that. It's like if you want to make a 2 line list, you can only learn how to do it in the most code-heavy ridiculous way possible.
Essentially what I am looking for with the list is this: Item one: Centred, bold, non selectable title (Resources)
- Item two-??: two line list items, click-able to a new activity, title of the section on first line, description on the second line.
- Item ??: Centred, bold, non selectable title (Tools)
- Item ??-??: two line list items, click-able to a new activity, title of the section on first line, description on the second line.
Nothing dynamic that is ever going to change, no super complex wonkey calculations, just to simply have the data set in stone (preferably via XML) and to call it into the list.
I experimented with some of the other list views and no matter what I did, I could get, via editing the resources and NOT using Java, more that one item on a single line but it wouldn't format it properly according to the layout I guess because I haven't got the ID correct or whatever I don't know.
I mean, all the examples I've seen for a 2 line list are extraordinarily over-coded and just bloated. I mean I have a website I am still working on in C#/ASP.net that has far more complex things in it with half the code that I've seen for the examples of the two line lists.
I tried on my own to figure it out (I am decent with C# and vaguely familiar with Java, self taught, and programming for some other systems like Python, again all self-taught), but like ALL coding references, they're organised by the actual code you implement (that you don't know) instead of by what you want it to do (so you have to search the whole code base to find something that you don't know what it's called but know what it does). >:C

I'm developing an simple application on Android, where some items are shown on a list. The user may click on one, taking him to a further activity.But my OnItemClickListener does not get called! I've found this very similar question, but the solution (disallow the list item view to get focus) does not work for me. However, a long click gets catched my OnItemLongClickListener gets called. Please have a look at the following code and try it yourself. This is a simplified version of my code, showing the buggy behavior. Btw: I'm using Andriod SDK 2.0 with Eclipse 3.5.1.

I have a ListView, which has a TextView and a RadioGroup with 4 RadioButtons as Children in each row. Now i can select a RadioButton in each row. But if i scroll the ListView, my Selection is gone or it does not show correctly. For example, i choose the RadioButton A in the first row, if i scroll through the ListView and then go back to the first row again, either none of the RadioButtons in the RadioGroup is checked or RadioButton C is checked instead of A.How can i fix this Problem? I have tried 7 days already, but still i find no solution.

I have a ListView, which contains an EditText in each of it's row. I also have an Array.The length of the Array==the Nr of the rows in the ListView. I want to store the user input (the text in the EditText) to the Arrray. E.g, if i type some text in the EditText in the first row of the ListView, i want the text to be stored in Array[0]. But how can i detect to which row the EditText belongs to? I can detect the possition of the row if the row contains a RadioGroup, but not a EditText. What if i first type some text in the EditText and sometime later i want to update mein Input? How can i update it?

I have an Android ListView, backed by an ArrayAdapter. When the user clicks on an item in the list, that item is removed. This all appears to work fine, you can click on each item until there are no items left.
However, it all goes wrong once text filtering occurs. Once the list has been filtered once, even if that filter is cleared, all subsequent calls to remove(Object) on the adapter fail to remove the item from the visible list. I've tried calling ListView.clearTextFilter() before removing the item, calling it after removing the item, and not calling it all. There's no difference.
I've looked through the source for ArrayAdapter.java and it seems that once filtering is set, the adapter uses one collection to respond to queries but updates a different one. I can see no obvious way to get it to revert its behaviour. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

I have an android-app with a listview in an activity. The listview has, if I call it so, three data states.
no data loaded from inet -> only one dummy item is visible, saying that data is loading; data is loaded and shown in list; one listitem is clicked and now shows more information for this listitem (so it is increased in its height).
On every state change (1 -> 2, 2 -> 3), I call notifyDataSetChanged() on this ListAdapater.
This causes the listview to scroll down to the last item. This is ugly in the first transition and even more ugly in the second because the clicked list item is now out of focus.
As I can see, this happens with a google g1 with android 1.6. An htc touch with the same sdk acts like desired (I will try to figure it out with some more devices).
To avoid this, I tried to read out getScrollY() and set this value back. but this returns 0. The reason for this return value I already found on stackoverflow in other questions.
Has anyone else seen this problem? Why does the listview scroll to the last item? It was mentioned that listview keeps track of the scroll position. but it seems that it does not in my case.
Or maybe I am calling the wrong refresh method? Is notifyDataSetChanged the correct one?

I want to design a table whose first column items remain fixed when user scrolls horizontally, but should scroll when the user scrolls vertically. Similarly the first row items remain fixed when user scrolls vertically, but should scroll when the user scrolls horizontally. Can this be achieved using a TableLayout? Or is there any other combination of widgets that I could use?

One of my android apps performs the following specific SQLite query:
CODE:................
Now that works on some Android phones, but on a few of them it crashes with the following error:
CODE:..................
For some reason, "-1" is interpreted as a column rather than a number... that doesn't make much sense and when I read the SQLite query language I see no need to escape this number in parentheses. Could it be an issue of a different version of SQLite? Would adding parentheses this help any? Instead, I'll probably rewrite it using >= 0 but still I'd like to understand what's going on.

I'm having trouble with something that works in the Notepad example.
Here's the code from the NotepadCodeLab/Notepadv1Solution:
CODE:.................
This code seems to work fine. But just to be clear, I ran the adb utility and run sqlite3 I inspected the schema as follows:
CODE:...............
All seems good to me.
Now on to My App, which as far as I can see is basically the same with a few minor changes. I've simplified and simplified my code, but the problem persists.
CODE:..............
When I run my app, I get a RuntimeException and the following prints in LogCat from my Log.e() statement:
LogCat Message: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: column '_id' does not exist
So, back to sqlite3 to see what's different about my schema:
CODE:.................
I don't see how I'm missing the '_id'.
Can anyone point out what I've done wrong?
One thing that's different between my app and the Notepad example is that I started by creating my application from scratch using the Eclipse wizard while the sample app comes already put together. Is
there some sort of environmental change I need to make for a new app to use a sqlite database?

I'm not big into UI programming so this may be an easy thing I overlooked. I am trying have a screen that shows 8 TextView in a 2 column x 4 row table. And, of course, I want the TextViews, that might have different lengths, to be centered. I tried this in a table layout, for obvious reasons but I feel like this is not the way to do it because it doesn't have much control where I put everything once it is in a row. Should I be using a different combinations of layouts or is there something I overlooked.
