Question

I have a listfragment that I’m populating with a simplecursoradapter. However, only the first column is getting binded to the layout. Here is the code.

public class ContactList extends ListFragment

{
private ActivityDbAdapter mDbHelper;
private Long mRowId=Long.valueOf(1);
Activity mContext;


@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
        Bundle savedInstanceState) 
{
    mContext=getActivity();
    mDbHelper=new ActivityDbAdapter(mContext);
    mDbHelper.open();
    Cursor activity = mDbHelper.fetchContacts(mRowId);
    if (activity.moveToFirst())
    {


    String[] from = new String[]{ActivityDbAdapter.COLUMN_NAME_CONTACT1 ,
            ActivityDbAdapter.COLUMN_NAME_CONTACT2,ActivityDbAdapter.COLUMN_NAME_CONTACT3,
            ActivityDbAdapter.COLUMN_NAME_CONTACT4, ActivityDbAdapter.COLUMN_NAME_CONTACT5};



    int[] to = new int[]{R.id.contacts};

    SimpleCursorAdapter contacts = 
        new SimpleCursorAdapter(mContext, R.layout.activity_contact_row, activity, from, to);

    setListAdapter(contacts);
    }

    return inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_contact_list, container, false);

}

}

… So here only Contact1 is showing up in the layout. Or whichever column I have first. From what I understood reading was that I didn’t have to utilize a for loop to correctly bind all of the columns, but it seems that you do? Unless I’m missing something here. Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

You have only one item (R.id.contacts) inside your array to; therefore only one view is used/displayed for the data. You need to add the Ids for the other views, too.
