Does this work with API level 2.1 ?

Postby ddudley3 » Fri Apr 16, 2010 2:27 pm

SO..... I have followed the code on this posting and I cannot get it to show these controls on the screen.
the ones I put in the xml do show.

I started my project with the API 2.1 and minsdkVersion of 7

Is this going to work with this newest level of the api ?

code I'm using is here..


TableLayout tl = (TableLayout)findViewById(R.id.TableLayout01);

/* Create a new row to be added. */
TableRow tr = new TableRow(this);
tr.setId(100+current);
tr.setOrientation(TableRow.VERTICAL);

/* Create controls to be the row-content. */
TextView textvw01 = new TextView(this);
textvw01.setId(200+current);
textvw01.setText("blah");
tr.addView(textvw01);

TextView textvw02 = new TextView(this);
textvw02.setId(300+current);
textvw02.setText("Blah2");
tr.addView(textvw02);

ImageView imgvw01 = new ImageView(this);
imgvw01.setId(400+current);
if (dto.statusCode == 0)
imgvw01.setImageDrawable(bmdComplete);
else if (dto.statusCode == 17)
imgvw01.setImageDrawable(bmdBE);
else if (dto.statusCode == 18)
imgvw01.setImageDrawable(bmdAE);
else
imgvw01.setImageDrawable(bmd);
tr.addView(imgvw01);

/* Add row to TableLayout. */
tl.addView(tr,new TableLayout.LayoutParams(
LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
Thanks,
David

it does seem to be something to do with API level

If I start a new Android project and make it use 1.5 instead of 2.1 it works fine.
Thanks,

Re: [TinyTut] - Dynamically add rows to TableLayout

Postby alewis2005 » Sun Aug 15, 2010 2:46 pm

I'm having a bit of a problem with making the new views appear.

This is my code:
Syntax: [ Download ] [ Hide ]
Using java Syntax Highlighting
  1.     void createDynamicViews(String str){
  2.         Toast.makeText(this, "Point C", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
  3.         TableRow tr = new TableRow(context);
  4.         tr.setId(tableRowIncrementer);
  5.        
  6.         TextView tv = new TextView(context);
  7.         tv.setId(textViewIncrementer);
  8.         tv.setText(str);
  9.         tv.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT));
  10.         tv.setGravity(Gravity.LEFT);
  11.         tv.setMaxLines(1);
  12.         tv.setSingleLine(true);
  13.         tv.setTextSize(10f);
  14.         tr.addView(tv, 0);
  15.        
  16.         Button b = new Button(context);
  17.         b.setText("Del");
  18.         b.setLayoutParams(new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT));
  19.         b.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL);
  20.        
  21.         b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
  22.                 int i = tableRowIncrementer;
  23.                 int j = textViewIncrementer;
  24.             public void onClick(View v) {
  25.                 currentNameslist.removeElement(((TextView)findViewById(j)).getText().toString());
  26.                 dynamicNames.removeView((TableRow)findViewById(i));
  27.                
  28.             }
  29.         });
  30.         tr.addView(b, 1);
  31.  
  32.         Toast.makeText(this, "Point D", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
  33.         dynamicNames.addView(tr, new TableRow.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
  34.         dynamicNames.setLayoutParams(new TableLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
  35.         dynamicNames.invalidate();
  36.         Toast.makeText(this, "Point E", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
  37.         tableRowIncrementer++;
  38.         textViewIncrementer++;
  39.     }
Parsed in 0.036 seconds, using GeSHi 1.0.8.4

When I run the method, it all executes (all the Toasts pop up in order) but nothing appears. dynamicNames is a TableLayout that I want the new views to be created in. The button is a delete button that removes the relevant string from an array and then removes the row that it appears in.

Anyone know whats going wrong here?

Edit: I didn't put notifyDataSetChanged() in my adapter. Urgh.

I was having the same problem as several others, and found the answer to my problem on StackOverflow. Make sure that your import for LayoutParams is "import android.widget.TableRow.LayoutParams;". I had "import android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams;", and I would not see any of the TableRows I added.
