Question

I have listView in which I inflate a row contain textview and button now I want to handle click event of button which coded in adapter and I am able to get the position of button too. But here when I click on button I am changing a image of button its works fine problem is when I scroll the view it again change the image of button as it was before because of getview() Method its recycle view every time.

How to handle above functionality in adapter?

Below is the button event code which is coded in adpater.

holder.download.setTag(position) ;

        holder.download.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {
                pos =(Integer) v.getTag() ; 
                Log.d("*******************************", ""+pos);
                Constant.buttonStates[pos]=1;   
        pref = activity.getSharedPreferences("status", MODE_PRIVATE);
                SharedPreferences.Editor edit=pref.edit();
                edit.putInt("s",Constant.buttonStates[pos]);
                //edit.putString("s",  Constant.buttonStates.toString());
                edit.commit();

                check[pos]=pref.getInt("s", 1);

                v.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.right);
                try {
                    new PubDetailsTask().execute("");
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    // TODO: handle exception
                }
            }
        });

Below is the adapter in which I am handling a button events.

Lets say you have CustomAdapter.class to populate your listview,then:

public class CustomAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> {

        String[] array;
    Context mContext;
    LayoutInflater mInflater;
    int[] buttonStates;

    public CustomAdapter(Context context, int textViewResourceId,
            String[] objects)
    {
        super(context, textViewResourceId, objects);
        array=objects;
        mContext=context;
        mInflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
        //save all buttons state as 0(not clicked) initially
        buttonStates=new int[objects.length];
            for(int i=0;i<objects.length;i++)
            { 
                   buttonStates[i]=0;
            }  
    }  
    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
    {
        ...
         if(buttonStates[position]==0)
         {
             holder.button.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.bg_normal);  //set background for button "not clicked"          
         }
         else
         {
             holder.button.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.bg_pressed);  //set background for button "clicked"                 
         }

         final int pos=position;
         holder.download.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {

                buttonStates[pos]=1;                
                holder.button.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.bg_clicked);                
            }
        });         
    }  
}

I have tested this one and it works fine for me!

EDIT :

You need to add these lines of code:

if (buttonStates[position] == 0)
         holder.download.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.downloadicon); // set background for button "not clicked"             
else
         holder.download.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.right); // set background for button "clicked"

out side if(convertView == null)...else.... So put that code just before you write:

holder.download.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
...}

That will solve your issue.

When you put it into if(convertView==null),it will called only once.so you are getting the problem you described to me in your comment!
