Android OnClick in ListView calling parent function
- by user1321683
I have an Android application with a ListView in it, the ListView will setup fine but now I want a image in the ListView to be clickable. I do this by using 2 classes, the Activity class (parent) and an ArrayAdapter to fill the list. In the ArrayAdapter I implement a OnClickListener for the image in the list that I want to be clickable.
So far it all works.
But now I want to run a function from the activity class when the onClick, for the image in the list, is run but I do not know how. Below are the 2 classes that I use.
First the Activity class:
public class parent_class extends Activity implements OnClickListener, OnItemClickListener
{
child_class_list myList;
ListView myListView;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
// setup the Homelist data
myList = new child_class_list (this, Group_Names, Group_Dates);
myListView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list);
// set the HomeList
myListView.setAdapter( myList );
myListView.setOnItemClickListener(this);
}
void function_to_run()
{
// I want to run this function from the LiscView Onclick
}
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2, long arg3)
{
// do something
}
}
And the ArrayAdapter from where I want to call a function from the Activity class:
public class child_class_list extends ArrayAdapter<String>
{
// private
private final Context context;
private String[] mName;
private String[] mDate;
public child_class_list (Context context, String[] Name, String[] Date)
{
super(context, R.layout.l_home, GroupName);
this.context = context;
this.mName = Name;
this.mDate = Date;
}
@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context
.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View rowView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.l_home, parent, false);
ImageView selectable_image = (ImageView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.l_selectable_image);
selectable_image.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()
{
public void onClick(View v)
{
// I want to run the function_to_run() function from the parant class here
}
}
);
// get the textID's
TextView tvName = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.l_name);
TextView tvDate = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.l_date);
// set the text
tvName.setText (mName[position]);
tvDate.setText (mDate[position]);
return rowView;
}
}
If anyone knows how to run the function in the activity class from the arrayadapter or how to set the image onClickListener in the Activity Class I would greatly apriciate the help.
