Question

I have problem with setting up own font for my ListView, I don’t know how to use own Adapter class and what xml do I need (besides that one in which I put ListView). I’m hoping (in ListView) just for centered text with own font.
Thats my Adapter:

public class MyAdapter extends BaseAdapter {

private String[]       objects; // no objects just String array
private final Context   context;

public MyAdapter(Context context, String[] objects) {
    this.context = context;
    this.objects = objects;
}

@Override
public int getCount() {
    return objects.length;
}

@Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
    return objects[position];
}

@Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
    return position;
}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

    Object obj = objects[position];

    TextView tv = new TextView(context);
    tv.setText(obj.toString());
    Typeface tf = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),"fonts/kolejRogFont.ttf");
    tv.setTypeface(tf);

    return tv;
}
}

and it’s calling in Lista.java

ListView lv = new ListView(this);
    lv.setAdapter(new MyAdapter(this, listview_array));

Codes are from another topic on StackOverFlow.

1. I get an error on line (undefined method):

   Typeface tf = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),”fonts/kolejRogFont.ttf”);

2.Nothings appear on the screen. Should I make a XML for ListView Layout? What should it contain?

Answer 1

Change MyAdapter Code as:

public class MyAdapter extends BaseAdapter {

Typeface tf;
private String[]       objects; // no objects just String array
private final Context   context;

public MyAdapter(Context context, String[] objects) {
    this.context = context;
    this.objects = objects;
    tf = Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),"fonts/kolejRogFont.ttf");
}
////Your code ...

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

    Object obj = objects[position];

    TextView tv = new TextView(context);
    tv.setText(obj.toString());
    tv.setTypeface(tf);
    return tv;
}
}
