The list view empty view is not shown (SDK m3-rc37a)

Hi,

I am using a listview and I have setup the empty view for the list view as follows:

Syntax: [ Download ] [ Hide ]

Using java Syntax Highlighting

TextView emptyListTextView = new TextView(this);
 
emptyListTextView.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
 
emptyListTextView.setId(android.R.id.empty);
 
emptyListTextView.setText("Empty"
 
userListView = (ListView) findViewById(android.R.id.list);
 
userListView.setEmptyView(emptyListTextView);
Parsed in 0.032 seconds,  using GeSHi 1.0.8.4

but nothing appears when the list is empty. I have not defined the empty view in the xml file, but am adding the empty view like above.

Please help.

Regards,
Prashant

Hello kalkar.prashant,

Why not upgrading to m5 :?:

Should be working also without this :darrow:

. By writing it the ID is used twice which probably causes problems.

Syntax: [ Download ] [ Hide ]

Using java Syntax Highlighting

emptyListTextView.setId(android.R.id.empty);

You should define such things in JavaCode only if there is no other way to do it in XML!
