Listview with Checkbox,RadioButton,Textview and button not working correctly in android

subodh picture subodh · Sep 26, 2012 · Viewed 12.1k times · Source

I am creating a android app the UI of my application is below given.

On clicking of submit button, I need the selected check box, and radio buttons value.

Example Linux is not checked, cc(radio button) is checked.

Records are populated dynamically in list view, but I am not able to make it work. A lot of problems are there.

  1. When I scroll the list view radio button gets automatically selected or deselected not able to maintain the state of radio button.
  2. On click of button not getting the selected radio button as well as check box.

Below is my layout as well as java program. Suggest me to get the correct values.

You got 2 mistakes here both on your MyAdaptor.java :

  1. When you attach the onCheckedChangeListener you do it only when a new view needs to be created and you forget the case where the list view reuses the view. You should setOnCheckedChangeListener outside if (convertView == null).

  2. It seems that onCheckedChangeListener is called also when the scroll is done (because of viewHolder.checkbox.setChecked(list.get(position).isSelected());). You can avoid this by using OnClickListener over viewHolder.checkbox or not calling viewHolder.checkbox.setChecked().

Here is my code:

private class ViewHolder {
    protected TextView text;
    protected CheckBox checkbox;
    protected RadioGroup radioGroup;
}

public class MyAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Model> {

    private final List<Model> list;
    private final Activity context;
    boolean checkAll_flag = false;
    boolean checkItem_flag = false;

    public MyAdapter(Activity context, List<Model> list) {
        super(context, R.layout.row, list);
        this.context = context;
        this.list = list;
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        ViewHolder viewHolder = null;
        if (convertView == null) {
            LayoutInflater inflator = context.getLayoutInflater();
            convertView = inflator.inflate(R.layout.row, null);

            viewHolder = new ViewHolder();
            viewHolder.text = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.label);
            viewHolder.checkbox = (CheckBox) convertView.findViewById(R.id.check);
            viewHolder.checkbox.setTag(position);
            viewHolder.radioGroup = (RadioGroup) convertView.findViewById(R.id.radioSex);
            viewHolder.radioGroup.setTag(position);

            convertView.setTag(viewHolder);
        } else {
            viewHolder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
        }

        viewHolder.text.setText(list.get(position).getName());
        viewHolder.checkbox.setChecked(list.get(position).isSelected());
        viewHolder.checkbox.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                CheckBox checkbox = (CheckBox) v;
                int getPosition = (Integer) checkbox.getTag();
                list.get(getPosition).setSelected(checkbox.isChecked());
            }
        });

        viewHolder.radioGroup.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new OnCheckedChangeListener() {

            @Override
            public void onCheckedChanged(RadioGroup group, int checkedId) {
                boolean isCcOrIsTo = (checkedId == R.id.cc);
                int getPosition = (Integer) group.getTag();
                list.get(getPosition).setCcOrIsTo(isCcOrIsTo);
            }
        });

        return convertView;
    }
}

Notice i've added some control over the radiogroup too, so Model.java has changed:

public class Model {

    private String name;
    private boolean selected;
    private boolean isCcOrIsTo;

    public Model(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public boolean isSelected() {
        return selected;
    }

    public void setSelected(boolean selected) {
        this.selected = selected;
    }

    public boolean isCcOrIsTo() {
        return isCcOrIsTo;
    }

    public void setCcOrIsTo(boolean isCcOrIsTo) {
        this.isCcOrIsTo = isCcOrIsTo;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        String selectedString = selected ? "selected" : "not selected";
        String value = isCcOrIsTo ? "CC" : "To";
        return name+" -> "+selectedString+ " with value "+value;
    }
}

Finally you don't need onItemClick on MainActivity.java, to check if the values are correct when you click the summit button :

public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
    super.onCreate(icicle);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.my_list);

    btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.submit);

    btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            for (Model m : list) {
                Log.i("Stack1", m.toString());
            }
        }
    });

    ArrayAdapter<Model> adapter = new MyAdapter(this, getModel());
    listView.setAdapter(adapter);
}

Hope it helps ;)
