ListView without ListActivity
Solution 1:
I actually have an app with a listview below some TextViews and above two buttons, let me grab my code!
Here's my activity with listview below the textviews and above the buttons (with quite a bit removed for brevity):
public class BNYDirectoryResults extends Activity{
public static String[] stuff;
ListView list;
BNYAdapter adapter;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.resultscreen);
TextView headDisplay = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.results);
TextView headCount = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.resultsTotal);
TextView headPages = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.pages);
//Set up the results list, see BNYAdapter
list = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.list);
adapter = new BNYAdapter (this, BNYDirectory.ReturnResults);
list.setAdapter(adapter);
//Sets up header information (pages, total results)
//Just some stuff to change the TextViews
//Passes EmployeeID and Phone Number to AND opens the details page
list.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener(){
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id){
String EID = BNYDirectory.ReturnResults[position][0];
String phoneNumber = BNYDirectory.ReturnResults[position][2];
BNYDirectoryTransaction.doDetails(EID, phoneNumber);
Intent i = new Intent(view.getContext(), BNYDirectoryDetails.class);
startActivity(i);
}
});
}
}
Here's the XML file for it:
<TextView
android:id="@+id/results"
android:text="Name"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" android:textStyle="bold"/>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/resultsTotal"
android:text="Phone"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" android:textStyle="bold"/>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/pages"
android:text="AIM"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" android:textStyle="bold"/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/name"
android:text="Name"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/phone"
android:text="Phone"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/aim"
android:text="AIM"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/dept"
android:text="Dept"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
<ListView
android:id="@+id/list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<Button
android:id="@+id/prevButton"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Previous"
android:layout_weight="1"/>
<Button
android:id="@+id/nextButton"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Next"
android:layout_weight="1"/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
and here's the custom adapter for the list:
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.BaseAdapter;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class BNYAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
private Activity activity;
private String[][] results;
private static LayoutInflater inflater=null;
public BNYAdapter(Activity a, String[][]info) {
activity = a;
results = info;
inflater = (LayoutInflater)activity.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
}
public int getCount() {
return results.length;
}
public Object getItem(int position) {
return position;
}
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
public static class ViewHolder{
public TextView name;
public TextView phone;
public TextView aim;
public TextView dept;
}
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
View vi=convertView;
ViewHolder holder;
if(convertView==null){
vi = inflater.inflate(R.layout.item, null);
holder=new ViewHolder();
holder.name=(TextView)vi.findViewById(R.id.nameItem);
holder.phone=(TextView)vi.findViewById(R.id.phoneItem);
holder.aim=(TextView)vi.findViewById(R.id.aimItem);
holder.dept=(TextView)vi.findViewById(R.id.deptItem);
vi.setTag(holder);
}
else
holder=(ViewHolder)vi.getTag();
holder.name.setText(BNYDirectory.ReturnResults[position][1]);
holder.phone.setText(BNYDirectory.ReturnResults[position][2]);
holder.aim.setText(BNYDirectory.ReturnResults[position][3]);
holder.dept.setText(BNYDirectory.ReturnResults[position][4]);
return vi;
}
}
and all together that makes a page like
