Android Expandable List not working inside fragment viewpager
I want to have an expandable list box inside a viewPager. The viewPager domain is a fragment. I used this tutorial: http://www.androidhive.info/2013/07/android-expandable-list-view-tutorial/
this is my snippet code:
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.List;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.ExpandableListView;
public class Resturant_menu extends Fragment {
ExpandableListAdapter listAdapter;
ExpandableListView expListView;
List<String> listDataHeader;
HashMap<String, List<String>> listDataChild;
View v;
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,Bundle savedInstanceState) {
v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.resturantmenu, container, false);
return v;
}
@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
// get the listview
expListView = (ExpandableListView) v.findViewById(R.id.expandableListView1);
// preparing list data
prepareListData();
listAdapter = new ExpandableListAdapter(getActivity(), listDataHeader, listDataChild);
// setting list adapter
expListView.setAdapter(listAdapter);
}
private void prepareListData() {
listDataHeader = new ArrayList<String>();
listDataChild = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();
// Adding child data
listDataHeader.add("Top 250");
listDataHeader.add("Now Showing");
listDataHeader.add("Coming Soon..");
// Adding child data
List<String> top250 = new ArrayList<String>();
top250.add("The Shawshank Redemption");
top250.add("The Godfather");
top250.add("The Godfather: Part II");
top250.add("Pulp Fiction");
top250.add("The Good, the Bad and the Ugly");
top250.add("The Dark Knight");
top250.add("12 Angry Men");
List<String> nowShowing = new ArrayList<String>();
nowShowing.add("The Conjuring");
nowShowing.add("Despicable Me 2");
nowShowing.add("Turbo");
nowShowing.add("Grown Ups 2");
nowShowing.add("Red 2");
nowShowing.add("The Wolverine");
List<String> comingSoon = new ArrayList<String>();
comingSoon.add("2 Guns");
comingSoon.add("The Smurfs 2");
comingSoon.add("The Spectacular Now");
comingSoon.add("The Canyons");
comingSoon.add("Europa Report");
listDataChild.put(listDataHeader.get(0), top250); // Header, Child data
listDataChild.put(listDataHeader.get(1), nowShowing);
listDataChild.put(listDataHeader.get(2), comingSoon);
}
}
this is the ExpandableListAdapter:
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.List;
import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Typeface;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.BaseExpandableListAdapter;
import android.widget.TextView;
Public class ExpandableListAdapter extends BaseExpandableListAdapter {
private Context _context;
private List<String> _listDataHeader; // header titles
// child data in format of header title, child title
private HashMap<String, List<String>> _listDataChild;
public ExpandableListAdapter(Context context, List<String> listDataHeader,
HashMap<String, List<String>> listChildData) {
this._context = context;
this._listDataHeader = listDataHeader;
this._listDataChild = listChildData;
}
@Override
public Object getChild(int groupPosition, int childPosititon) {
return this._listDataChild.get(this._listDataHeader.get(groupPosition))
.get(childPosititon);
}
@Override
public long getChildId(int groupPosition, int childPosition) {
return childPosition;
}
@Override
public View getChildView(int groupPosition, final int childPosition,
boolean isLastChild, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
final String childText = (String) getChild(groupPosition, childPosition);
if (convertView == null) {
LayoutInflater infalInflater = (LayoutInflater) this._context
.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
convertView = infalInflater.inflate(R.layout.list_item, null);
}
TextView txtListChild = (TextView) convertView
.findViewById(R.id.lblListItem);
txtListChild.setText(childText);
return convertView;
}
@Override
public int getChildrenCount(int groupPosition) {
return this._listDataChild.get(this._listDataHeader.get(groupPosition))
.size();
}
@Override
public Object getGroup(int groupPosition) {
return this._listDataHeader.get(groupPosition);
}
@Override
public int getGroupCount() {
return this._listDataHeader.size();
}
@Override
public long getGroupId(int groupPosition) {
return groupPosition;
}
@Override
public View getGroupView(int groupPosition, boolean isExpanded,
View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
String headerTitle = (String) getGroup(groupPosition);
if (convertView == null) {
LayoutInflater infalInflater = (LayoutInflater) this._context
.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
convertView = infalInflater.inflate(R.layout.list_group, null);
}
TextView lblListHeader = (TextView) convertView
.findViewById(R.id.lblListHeader);
lblListHeader.setTypeface(null, Typeface.BOLD);
lblListHeader.setText(headerTitle);
return convertView;
}
@Override
public boolean hasStableIds() {
return false;
}
@Override
public boolean isChildSelectable(int groupPosition, int childPosition) {
return true;
}
}
this action:
public class Showit extends FragmentActivity {
private PagerSlidingTabStrip tabs;
private ViewPager pager;
private MyPagerAdapter adapter;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.showit);
tabs = (PagerSlidingTabStrip) findViewById(R.id.tabs);
pager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.pager);
adapter = new MyPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
pager.setAdapter(adapter);
final int pageMargin = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 4, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
pager.setPageMargin(pageMargin);
tabs.setViewPager(pager);
}
public class MyPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
private final String[] TITLES = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.tabresturan);;
public MyPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
@Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
return TITLES[position];
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
return TITLES.length;
}
@Override
public Fragment getItem(int arg0) {
Fragment fragment=null;
fragment=new Resturant_menu();
return fragment;
}
}
this is the layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ExpandableListView
android:id="@+id/expandableListView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>
</ExpandableListView>
this is what i get:
instead of this:
I don't get any error, I added all the classes and layout that was specified.
Could you please help me to solve this problem? Thanks you
Try to set the height of your ExpandableListView to match the parent. I think I should do the trick
this works great:
main.class
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
ExpandableListAdapter listAdapter;
ExpandableListView expListView;
List<String> listDataHeader;
HashMap<String, List<String>> listDataChild;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
ViewPager pager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.viewPager);
pager.setAdapter(new MyPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager()));
}
private class MyPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
public MyPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
@Override
public Fragment getItem(int pos) {
return Resturant_menu.newInstance("FirstFragment, Instance 1");
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
return 1;
}
}
}
main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="@+id/viewPager"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
/>
Resturant_menu.class is exactly the same as your code. but add below method because of viewpager adapter:
public static Resturant_menu newInstance(String text) {
Resturant_menu f = new Resturant_menu();
Bundle b = new Bundle();
b.putString("msg", text);
f.setArguments(b);
return f;
}
Resturant_menu.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#f4f4f4" >
<ExpandableListView
android:id="@+id/lvExp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:cacheColorHint="#00000000"/>
</LinearLayout>
maybe something is wrong in your activity !!!
