Custom Single choice ListView

Question

I want to make a custom List View having Two TextViews and a radio Button in a single row. And on listitem click the radio button state should be toggle. I cannot use Simple Adapter here.

I have already asked that question Single choice ListView custom Row Layout but don't find any satisfactory solution.

What I am currently doing is I am using simple_list_item_single_choice and putting data of both TextViews in a single one separated by some white spaces. But here it is getting worse (shown in the image below).

What I want is to fix the location of size and price and make list view as single choice.

XML Layout for the list can be something like:

**<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/layout"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:orientation="horizontal" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv_size"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="TextView"
        android:textSize="15sp"
        android:width="200dp" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv_price"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="TextView"
        android:textSize="15sp"
        android:width="70dp" />

    <RadioButton
        android:id="@+id/radioButton"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

</LinearLayout>**

How to make custom adapter for that?

Answer 1

I had a similar situation but fixed that easily. Try this:

1. Extend ListActivity and set your custom list adapter

   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
       super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
       requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE); //if you need title to be hidden
       setContentView(R.layout.activity_add_to_cart_select_service_plan);
       setListAdapter(adapter);
   }
   

2. Create a field to store selected index position in adapter

   int selectedIndex = -1;
   

3. Provide an interface to it

   public void setSelectedIndex(int index){
       selectedIndex = index;
   }
   

4. Set the checked state to true or false based on the selected index inside getView()

   @Override
   public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
       RadioButton rbSelect = (RadioButton) convertView
                           .findViewById(R.id.radio1);
       if(selectedIndex == position){
       rbSelect.setChecked(true);
       }
       else{
       rbSelect.setChecked(false);
       }
   }
   

5. Set radio button focusable and clickable attribs to 'false'

    <RadioButton
        android:id="@+id/radio1"
        android:checked="false"
        android:focusable="false"
        android:clickable="false"
    />
   

6. Set listview descendantFocusability attrib to 'beforeDescendants'

   <ListView
       android:id="@android:id/list"
       android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
       android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants"
   />
   

7. Override onListItemClick

   @Override
   protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
       super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
       adapter.setSelectedIndex(position);
       adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
   }
   

That's it..run and check
