togglebutton state changes when listview is scrolled down in android? - android-listview

Question

i have placed a textview and a toggle button into a list view by using the following xml file and i have used an arrayadapter to set it on to my layout, my problem is when i scroll down in the list view by unchecking a few toggle buttons (which are all set to be checked by default), they go back to default state and few others change state. As i want to fetch the state of the toggle button in my later stages its very important to stick on to the state that ive assigned to the toggle button. Please help to resolve this problem. Here are my xml file and the java code i use to set it on to the adapter. thank you in prior...
xml file that is named listdecor is included here
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/lvlistdecor"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#000000"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="2" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tvlistdecor"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1.5"
android:ellipsize="marquee"
android:singleLine="true"
android:text="sample"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textSize="24sp"
android:typeface="sans" />
<CheckBox
android:id="#+id/cbusn_checked"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_marginRight="6sp"
android:layout_weight="0.5"
android:checked="true"
android:focusable="false"
android:padding="10dp" />
</LinearLayout>
Sir i made certain changes and also included the custom adapter to the listview and also changed to CheckBox instead of toggle buttons. but now the entire list view is not visible on my emulator. i've included my edited java class and xml file, please suggest me the changes, thank you...
The modified java code is included here

Answer 1

The view objects are recycled. You have to store that info sepperately. Not in the view but in the with the data you use in the adapter. When generating the views use this info to set the button state again.
You have to implement a custom adapter. Use the BaseAdapter class.
