clicklistener to each android-listview item - android-listview

Can you please tell me how to set clicklistener to each android listview item? I want mij each item to navigate to different pages.
Right now I wrote the following code that all items go to the same page:
list.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {public void onItemClick(AdapterView arg0, View arg1, int position,long arg3) {
startActivity(new Intent(Participant.this,Contact.class)); }
});

Of course all items navigate to same page...the code is the same for each item!
You have to call a different Intent() for every item, depends on its position or item's view type or every other kind of information.
Check Intent documentation and look its constructor.
Also get a good tutorial (web is full) can help you.
Enjoy.

GWT Detect DOM changes or modifications

What am I trying to do?
I have an existing page (generated by system automatically and I don't have any control on it) in which I am injecting GWT code to modify the behaviour of the page after it loads based on certain columns and augment the functionality of the page. For example after adding my GWT code, cells in one of the table columns become clickable and when the user clicks it, additional information is displayed to the user in a pop-up panel. All that is working fine.
What is the issue?
The generic page in which I am injecting my code has paginated table which shows 15 rows at a time. Now, when I load/refresh the page, my GWT code kicks in and sinks events in the specific column which adds functionality (described above) to the cells. However, when the user uses the left and right buttons to navigate the paginated result, the page does not refresh as it is an asynchronous call. The specific column in the new set of 15 rows is now without the sunk events as the GWT code does not know that the page changed.
I am trying to find a way to tell my GWT code that page has changed and it should sink events to the cells of specific column for the new 15 rows but unable to find any method or mechanism to help me capture a DOM/Document change event. I tried doing this but did not help:
new ChangeHandler(){
#Override
public void onChange(ChangeEvent event) {
Window.alert("Something Changed");
}
It is possible I am missing something very obvious. Posting this question to know if there is an easy way to figure out DOM changes in GWT. Have searched for DOM/Document change/mutation/ etc. without luck.
If anyone knows how to detect DOM changes in GWT would really appreciate otherwise would go ahead writing native code using native mutation observers.
You can try something like this:
First get the input elements with:
InputElement goOn = DOM.getElementById("IdOfGoOnButton").cast();
InputElement goBack = DOM.getElementById("IdOfGoBackButton").cast();
Next add a native EventHandler:
Event.addNativePreviewHandler(new Event.NativePreviewHandler() {
#Override
public void onPreviewNativeEvent(Event.NativePreviewEvent event) {
if (event.getTypeInt() == Event.ONCLICK) {
if (event.getNativeEvent()
.getEventTarget() != null) {
Element as = Element.as(event.getNativeEvent()
.getEventTarget());
if (as.getTagName()
.toLowerCase()
.equals("input")) {
InputElement clickedElement = as.cast();
if (clickedElement.getId().equals(goOn.getId()) ||
clickedElement.getId().equals(goBack.getId())) {
// one of the paging button is pressed
}
}
}
}
}
});
Hope that helps.

GWTP: Correct information flow for popup presenter

i had this task: I have Presenter/View Couple (lets call it ItemListPresenter) showing a Celltable. Now i wanted to edit an item by double-clicking it (or pressing a button, whatever). Then a popup dialog should appear (Lets call it PopupWidget), letting me edit my item properties.
i found a solution how to do it, but i am not sure it is the "right" way. Since i am trying to learn the philosophy behind GWT/GWTP, i would appreciate if you could give me hints what i did right and what i did wrong:
In the onbind method of ItemListPresenter, i wire the CellTable with a DoubleClick handler:
getView().getCellTable().setSelectionModel(selectionModel);
getView().getCellTable().addDomHandler(new DoubleClickHandler() {
#Override
public void onDoubleClick(final DoubleClickEvent event) {
DeviceDto selectedDeviceDto = selectionModel.getSelectedObject();
//TODO: Figure out how to best handle editing of DeviceDto
if (selectedDeviceDto != null) {
devicesDialog.setCurrentDeviceDTO(selectedDeviceDto);
addToPopupSlot(devicesDialog);
}
} }, DoubleClickEvent.getType());
What does not feel right is setting the object i want to edit (selectedDeviceDto) in the Dialog Presenter Widget. Is this the "right" way?
My popup presenter which is defined as
public class DeviceEditDialogPresenterWidget extends PresenterWidget<DeviceEditDialogPresenterWidget.MyView> implements
DeviceEditDialogUiHandlers {
is still ugly, since i just set every property into a text box and after editing, i recollect the properties and rebuild the object. This is messy and i guess i should GWT Editors for that. However, when i click the "Save" Button in the dialog, an UiHandler is triggered:
#UiHandler("okButton")
void okButtonClicked(ClickEvent event) {
DeviceDto dev = new DeviceDto(idBox.getText(), deviceIdBox.getText(), typeBox.getText(), firmwareVersionBox.getText(), userBox.getText(), statusBox.getText());
getUiHandlers().updateDevice(dev);
hide();
}
This triggers my DeviceEditDialogPresenterWidget, which itself fires and event:
#Override
public void updateDevice(DeviceDto device) {
eventBus.fireEvent(new DeviceUpdatedEvent(device));
}
This event is caught by a handler in the "mother" presenter with the CellTable, which is wired in the onBind method again:
addRegisteredHandler(DeviceUpdatedEvent.TYPE, new DeviceUpdatedEvent.DeviceUpdatedHandler() {
#Override
public void onDeviceUpdatedEvent(DeviceUpdatedEvent event) {
updateDevice(event.getDevice());
}
});
I would really like to avoid going down a road of messy mistakes, so any hints would be appreciated.
Thanks

PresenterWidgets are usually designed to have a setter which is used to set a Model or DTO that the PresenterWidget works on (the same way you did it).
Alternatively you can avoid a PresenterWidget and use an Editor (extends Composite) that you manually add to a PopupPanel or DialogBox in your ListItemEditor.
This way you avoid the complexity of a PresenterWidget. But you have to handle the clicks (i.e. save button) from the ListItemPresenter. I would always try to start small (use a composite) and if you realize that you might need the functionality also in other places, create a PresenterWidget.
Also you don't need the updateDevice method because you pass a reference to your DTO. You only need to fresh the CellTable.
But apart from that your approach looks fine.

How to listen to modifications of the contents of an SWT List?

I tried using a listener for SWT.Modify event. This works for Text but seems not to work for List. That is, the following does not work:
myList = new List(listComp, SWT.MULTI|SWT.BORDER|SWT.V_SCROLL);
myList.addListener(SWT.Modify, new Listener() {
public void handleEvent(Event e) {
System.out.println("My list modified");
dirty=true;
}
});
Thanks for your help.
Listen to the SWT.Selection event instead of SWT.Modify.
Consider also to use a ListViewer instead of a List, which has addSelectionChangedListener() and addPostSelectionChangedListener() methods (the later is used be notified when user 'stops' on an item when navigating in the list with keyboard, instead of notifying on each item).
You should register listeners to your model which is visualized with the list and listen for changes there instead of the widget.
Why don't you create your own custom list (check e.g. http://www.snip2code.com/Snippet/11489/Custom-SWT-List-Box) and directly manage events from within your class?

GWT ClickableTextCell

I am a newbie to GWT ... need some help in understanding the below class -
What is the use of GWT ClickableTextCell ??
Is there something specific use of it. It uses something called FieldUpdater, why is that used ?
Think of a ClickableTextCell as hot spot. It looks like a regular bit of screen real estate with text in it, but it responds to clicks. What happens when you click it? The click "updates" the field. An update to a field calls the method update(). What does update() do? Whatever you want it to. You provide it by specifying the FieldUpdater. FieldUpdater is an interface, so you can construct one anonymously. Say you have a CellTable, and you have a Column that displays a String inside a ClickableTextCell. You provide your FieldUpdater to the Column:
Column<DataType, String> myIntegerColumn
= new Column<DataType, String>(new ClickableTextCell());
myIntegerColumn.setFieldUpdater(new FieldUpdater<DataType, String>(){
#Override
public void update(int index, DataType object, String value){
// execute code that reacts to a click on this hot spot
}
});
Now whenever the cell gets clicked, that code in update() fires.
A ClickableTextCell is a specific kind of cell. You can see a demo of all the different kinds of cells in this GWT showcase.
This GWT documentation explains what cell widgets are for, goes over all of the different types, and also has examples of how to use them and the ValueUpdater type.

Dynamcially adding panels based on DropdownChoice selection

am a newbie to wicket and am experimenting few things with it, like, I have four panel but one only should be added based on the selection made in the DropdownChoice component.
i tried to add panels using onSelectChange() method, but it doesn't work. can any one please help me out with proper sample code.
I give you an example for this problem. Hope it helps.
DropDownChoice dropDown = new DropDownChoice(...........);
AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior behavior = new AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior(
"onchange") {
#Override
protected void onUpdate(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
//you should write here the logic that
// replaces the panel, something like: content.addOrReplace(panel)
target.addComponent(form);
}
};
dropDown.add(behavior);
So that's all, you have to use AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior to handle onchange event. If the dropdown menu not a requirement, you can use tabbedpanel. Here you can find the sample code: wicket tabbed panel
