I want to change the layout file that is used depending on which activity is running. I have two activities which need a grid view and both are very similar so I thought I should be able to use the same adapter. The only thing that needs changing is the layout file.
This is my custom adapter:
package com.example.placesofinterest;
import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.BaseAdapter;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class GridAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
private Context context;
private LayoutInflater inflater;
private ArrayList<Bitmap> img;
public GridAdapter(Context c, ArrayList<Bitmap> img){
this.context = c;
this.img = img;
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
return img.size();
}
@Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
return img.get(position);
}
@Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
if (convertView == null) {
inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.places_layout, parent, false);
MyViewHolder myViewHolder = new MyViewHolder(convertView);
convertView.setTag(myViewHolder);
}
MyViewHolder myViewHolder = (MyViewHolder)convertView.getTag();
myViewHolder.img.setImageBitmap(img.get(position));
return convertView;
}
public class MyViewHolder {
public ImageView img;
public MyViewHolder(View view) {
img = view.findViewById(R.id.imageView);
}
}
}
I was thinking in getView whether there was anyway to determine whether MainActivity1 is running or MainActivity2 is running and using that, I could change the layout file.
Ie:
if (convertView == null) {
inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
if (Activity = MainActivity )
convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row_layout, parent, false);
else if (Activity = MainActivity2)
convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row_layout2, parent, false);
MyViewHolder myViewHolder = new MyViewHolder(convertView);
convertView.setTag(myViewHolder);
}
Did you try to do that ?
if (context instanceof MainActivity) {
// some code
} else if (context instanceof MainActivity2){
// handle service case
}
I'm not sure it will work, but try and tell me :D
