How do I send the text of the ListView item that was clicked to my new activity?

I would like someone to click on an item in my ListView and then my new activity would start and the text of the item they clicked on should be set as the text of the TextView in my new activity. Currently with the following code, my TextView result is:
'com.example.draft.AnimalNames#31571cf'
Here is what I have in MainActivity.java:
list.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
String clickedName = (list.getItemAtPosition(position).toString());
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, Profile.class);
intent.putExtra("clickedName", clickedName);
startActivity(intent);
System.out.println(clickedName);
}
});
And in my new activity:
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.profile_layout);
Intent intent = getIntent();
String clickedName = intent.getStringExtra("clickedName");
animalName = findViewById(R.id.textView);
animalName.setText(clickedName);
}
And in my AnimalNames.java file:
public class AnimalNames {
private String animalName;
public AnimalNames(String animalName) {
this.animalName = animalName;
}
public String getanimalName() {
return this.animalName;
}
}
I don't think it's relevant to my question but here is my ListViewAdapter.java file:
public class ListViewAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
// Declare Variables
Context mContext;
LayoutInflater inflater;
private List<AnimalNames> animalNamesList; // Declare a null variable
private ArrayList<AnimalNames> arraylist; // Declare a null array
public ListViewAdapter(Context context, List<AnimalNames> animalNamesList) {
mContext = context;
this.animalNamesList = animalNamesList;
inflater = LayoutInflater.from(mContext);
this.arraylist = new ArrayList<AnimalNames>();
this.arraylist.addAll(animalNamesList);
}
public class ViewHolder {
TextView name;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return animalNamesList.size();
}
#Override
public AnimalNames getItem(int position) {
return animalNamesList.get(position);
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
public View getView(final int position, View view, ViewGroup parent) {
final ViewHolder holder;
if (view == null) {
holder = new ViewHolder();
view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.list_view_items, null); // Locate the TextViews in list_view_items.xml
holder.name = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.name);
view.setTag(holder);
} else {
holder = (ViewHolder) view.getTag();
}
// Set the results into TextViews
holder.name.setText(animalNamesList.get(position).getanimalName());
return view;
}
// Filter Class
public void filter(String charText) {
charText = charText.toLowerCase(Locale.getDefault());
animalNamesList.clear();
if (charText.length() == 0) {
animalNamesList.addAll(arraylist);
} else {
for (AnimalNames wp : arraylist) {
if (wp.getanimalName().toLowerCase(Locale.getDefault()).contains(charText)) {
animalNamesList.add(wp);
}
}
}
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}

String clickedName = (list.getItemAtPosition(position).toString());
By calling toString() method, it will give you the object reference, which is what you get in the TextView.
According to your code, if you wish to see the Animal name, you should do (and fix the method name to getAnimalName):
String clickedName = ((AnimalNames)list.getItemAtPosition(position)).getanimalName();
getItemAtPosition() returns an Object, so you need to cast it to the correct class.

How to pass onClickHandler as parameter while setting adapter for a RecyclerView in a Fragment?

I made an Adapter for my recyclerView. This adapter works when I use on any xxxActivity.java but when I try to use is on a Fragment Its hows error. Doesn't let me Pass the onClickHandler() that I created in Adapter.
I am Setting Adapter Like this -
events_recyclerview.setAdapter(new FixedPlaceListAdapter(getContext(), placelist, mClickHandler)); //ClickListener doesn't work :'(
Another try was like --
events_recyclerview.setAdapter(new FixedPlaceListAdapter(getContext(), placelist, getmClickHandler()));
Here, I implemented getClickHandler() in the Fragment--
public FixedPlaceListAdapter.FixedPlaceListAdapterOnclickHandler getmClickHandler() {
return mClickHandler;
} //Still doesn't work :'(
and the Adapter Part--
Constructor like this-
public FixedPlaceListAdapter(Context mContext, List<PlaceBean>
placeBeanList, FixedPlaceListAdapterOnclickHandler mClickHandler) {
this.mContext = mContext;
this.placeBeanList = placeBeanList;
this.mClickHandler = mClickHandler;
}
I tried to do this ... but still doesn't work--
events_recyclerview.setAdapter(new FixedPlaceListAdapter(getContext(), placelist, FixedPlaceListAdapter.FixedPlaceListAdapterOnclickHandler.mClickhandler));
here is my full adapter code-
public class FixedPlaceListAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<FixedPlaceListAdapter.FixedPlaceListAdapterViewHolder> {
private final FixedPlaceListAdapterOnclickHandler mClickHandler;
Context mContext;
List<PlaceBean> placeBeanList;
public FixedPlaceListAdapter(Context mContext, List<PlaceBean> placeBeanList, FixedPlaceListAdapterOnclickHandler mClickHandler) {
this.mContext = mContext;
this.placeBeanList = placeBeanList;
this.mClickHandler = mClickHandler;
}
public void setData(List<PlaceBean> placeBeanList) {
this.placeBeanList = placeBeanList;
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
#Override
public FixedPlaceListAdapterViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
LayoutInflater inflater = LayoutInflater.from(mContext);
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.top_list_single, parent, false);
return new FixedPlaceListAdapterViewHolder(view);
}
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(FixedPlaceListAdapterViewHolder holder, int position) {
PlaceBean pb = placeBeanList.get(position);
holder.nameTextView.setText(pb.getName());
holder.addressTextView.setText(pb.getVicinity());
holder.rating.setRating(pb.getRating());
if (pb.getPhotoref() != null) {
String imageUrl = UrlsUtil.getSinglePhotoUrlString(mContext, pb.getPhotoref(), "350", "300");
Picasso.with(mContext)
.load(imageUrl)
.into(holder.thumbnailImage);
}
}
#Override
public int getItemCount() {
return placeBeanList.size();
}
public interface FixedPlaceListAdapterOnclickHandler {
void onClick(String id);
}
public class FixedPlaceListAdapterViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener {
TextView nameTextView;
TextView addressTextView;
RatingBar rating;

public FixedPlaceListAdapterViewHolder(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
nameTextView = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.place_name_now_in_list);
addressTextView = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.address_in_list);
rating = (RatingBar) itemView.findViewById(R.id.rating_single_place_in_list);
thumbnailImage = (ImageView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.place_image_thumb);
itemView.setOnClickListener(this);
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
String placeID = placeBeanList.get(getAdapterPosition()).getPlaceref();
mClickHandler.onClick(placeID);
}
}
}

public static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {

super(itemView);
news_title = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.news_title);
news_date = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.news_date);

news_description = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.news_description);
news_image = (ImageView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.news_image);
}
}
}
And In your activity
implements NewsItemClickListener
create object NewsItemClickListener newsItemClickListner;
inside oncreate newsItemClickListner=this; (you mush have implemented 1)
pass that object to recyclerview.
In adapter it is received by this
public CategoryNewsListAdapter(List personList, Context mContext, NewsItemClickListener newsItemClickListener) {
this.actors.addAll(personList);
this.mContext = mContext;
this.newsItemClickListener = newsItemClickListener;
}
In your activity
CategoryNewsListAdapter categoryNewsListAdapter= new CategoryNewsListAdapter(list,this,newsItemClickListner)
After doing all this your overriden method will be called when you click in item of recycler view where you have set onclick listner

Okay .. The Problem is Fixed now ...
I was passing the wrong value or maybe the method of passing the ClickHandler was wrong.
The Solution of the Problem :
I Created another Class for ClickHandler-
public class PlaceCardClickHandler implements
FixedPlaceListAdapter.FixedPlaceListAdapterOnclickHandler,
PlaceListAdapter.PlaceListAdapterOnclickHandler {
Context mContext;
public PlaceCardClickHandler(Context mContext) {
this.mContext = mContext;
}
#Override
public void onClick(String id) {
Intent intentToStartDetail = new Intent(mContext, PlaceDetailActivity.class);
intentToStartDetail.putExtra("id", id);
mContext.startActivity(intentToStartDetail);
}
}
and the change in the Fragment was like this- (Just passed a object from the ClickHandler class)
events_recyclerview.setAdapter(new FixedPlaceListAdapter(getContext(), placelist, new PlaceCardClickHandler(getContext())));

How to keep custom listview items when they are out of screen?

I am trying to design a menu like this:
It almost works, however there is a problem. The menu works fine at start, but after scrolling down and up again, the items are gone and downloaded again and it takes a little time. Is there a way to set a number of elements to create at start and keep them from disappearing?
Here is my code:
public class MyActivity extends Activity implements AdapterView.OnItemClickListener {
String headers[];
String image_urls[];
List<MyMenuItem> menuItems;
ListView mylistview;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);
menuItems = new ArrayList<MyMenuItem>();
headers = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.header_names);
image_urls = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.image_urls);
for (int i = 0; i < headers.length; i++) {
MyMenuItem item = new MyMenuItem(headers[i], image_urls[i]);
menuItems.add(item);
}
mylistview = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list);
MenuAdapter adapter = new MenuAdapter(this, menuItems);
mylistview.setAdapter(adapter);
mylistview.setOnItemClickListener(this);
}
}
public class MyMenuItem {
private String item_header;
private String item_image_url;
public MyMenuItem(String item_header, String item_image_url){
this.item_header=item_header;
this.item_image_url=item_image_url;
}
public String getItem_header(){
return item_header;
}
public void setItem_header(String item_header){
this.item_header=item_header;
}
public String getItem_image_url(){
return item_image_url;
}
public void setItem_image_url(String item_image_url){
this.item_image_url=item_image_url;
}
}
public class MenuAdapter extends BaseAdapter{
Context context;
List<MyMenuItem> menuItems;
MenuAdapter(Context context, List<MyMenuItem> menuItems) {
this.context = context;
this.menuItems = menuItems;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return menuItems.size();
}
#Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
return menuItems.get(position);
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return menuItems.indexOf(getItem(position));
}
private class ViewHolder {
ImageView ivMenu;
TextView tvMenuHeader;
}
#Override

ViewHolder holder = null;
LayoutInflater mInflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Activity.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
if (convertView == null) {
convertView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.menu_item, null);
holder = new ViewHolder();
holder.tvMenuHeader = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.tvMenuHeader);
holder.ivMenu = (ImageView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.ivMenuItem);
convertView.setTag(holder);
} else {
holder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
}
MyMenuItem row_pos = menuItems.get(position);
Picasso.with(context)
.load(row_pos.getItem_image_url())
// .placeholder(R.drawable.empty)
// .error(R.drawable.error)
.into(holder.ivMenu);
holder.tvMenuHeader.setText(row_pos.getItem_header());
Log.e("Test", "headers:" + row_pos.getItem_header());
return convertView;
}
}

Possibly you can implement lazy loading with some sort of caching of images or whatever you are downloading...

You say the images are donwloaded, i assume that the images are coming from internet. Implement a custom cache for http download or download and store the images in one place before you use

Android custom list view data is not updating while using shared preference

I am trying to get the value from shared preference and display it in customized list view. But the problem is list view is not getting updated with second value, means first time it's perfectly working fine but second time it overwrites the first value or may be it is opening another screen and displaying over there.
I want to add all the shared preferences data in list view one by one. please help me to solve this. Following is my code.
ListModel.java
public class ListModel {
private String Title = "";
private String Description = "";
/*********** Set Methods ******************/
public void setTitle(String Title) {
this.Title = Title;
}
public void setDescription(String Description) {

}
}
}
Class Which reads shared preferencedata
public class Assignment extends Activity {

public void onItemClick(int mPosition) {
ListModel tempValues = (ListModel) CustomListViewValuesArr
.get(mPosition);
Toast.makeText(
CustomListView,
"" + tempValues.getTitle() + "" + ""
+ tempValues.getDescription(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
.show();
}
}
This function shows how i am writing data in shared Preference
public void sharedPrefernces() {
if (Code.title != null)
PreferenceConnector.writeString(this, PreferenceConnector.TITLE,
Code.title);
if (Code.description != null)
PreferenceConnector.writeString(this, PreferenceConnector.DESC,
Code.description);
}

In setListData() you're only adding 1 item to the Adapter, so the listView is not going to have the 2nd item shown.

Android java.lang.IllegalStateException on ListView

I use ListActivity with SpecialAdapter that show some log information.
I do not use background thread but I get an error when scroll list:
