I have a ListView
and I want to select (highlight) an item first and then click a button before it goes to another activity.
Here's an example of what I want to do:
This is how I made my ListView(I get its entry from a database)
ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.lvListOfCustomers);
String strDBName = "db_customers.s3db";
File fileDB = new File(
Environment
.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS),
strDBName);
SQLiteDatabase dbLibrary = SQLiteDatabase.openOrCreateDatabase(fileDB,
null);
// Start - Cursor and Queries of List of Customers(ListView)
String sqlQuery = "select _id, customer_name as cName, customer_address as cAddress, customer_status as cStatus from tbl_customers";
Cursor cur = (Cursor) dbLibrary.rawQuery(sqlQuery, null);
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
SimpleCursorAdapter sca = new SimpleCursorAdapter(
this.getApplicationContext(),
R.layout.lv_list_of_customers_txtview, cur, new String[] {
"cName", "cAddress", "cStatus" }, new int[] {
R.id.tvCustomersName, R.id.tvCustomersAddress,
R.id.tvCustomersId }, CursorAdapter.FLAG_AUTO_REQUERY);
lv.setAdapter(sca);
// End - Cursor and Queries of List of Customers(ListView)
// Start - Make the items highlighted
int selectedListItem = getIntent().getIntExtra("PositionInList", -1);
lv.setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE);
lv.setSelection(selectedListItem);
// End - Make the items highlighted
and this is what I've made for my Button
case R.id.bCallRemarks:
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Button bCRemarks = (Button) findViewById(R.id.bCallRemarks);
bCRemarks.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
ListView.OnItemClickListener oicl = new ListView.OnItemClickListener() {
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> av, View view,
int pos, long id) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Cursor c = (Cursor) av.getItemAtPosition(pos);
String cName = c.getString(c
.getColumnIndexOrThrow("cName"));
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplication(),
CallRemarks.class);
intent.putExtra("CustomerName", cName);
Toast.makeText(av.getContext(), cName,
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Intent CallRemarksScreen = new Intent(
getApplicationContext(), CallRemarks.class);
startActivity(CallRemarksScreen);
}
};
}
});
I asked this because there's a ListView
and multiple buttons in the bottom. So I have to select first item before choosing a functionality (button).
I put out the onItemClick of ListView outside the onClick of the Button
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> av, View view, int pos,
long id) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
selectedItem = true;
Cursor c = (Cursor) av.getItemAtPosition(pos);
String cName = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow("cName"));
intent = new Intent(getApplication(), CallRemarks.class);
intent.putExtra("CustomerId", id);
Toast.makeText(av.getContext(), "id: " + id, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
}
});
and then here is my button
case R.id.bCallRemarks:
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Button bCRemarks = (Button) findViewById(R.id.bCallRemarks);
bCRemarks.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if (selectedItem == false) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"No Customer Selected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
} else {
// Intent intent = new Intent(
// getApplicationContext(), CallRemarks.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
});
break;
I initialized a Boolean flag to check if an item is selected or not, in case that I clicked a button without selecting an item in the ListView.
private boolean selectedItem = false;
