Question

I have two spinners (day_spin and time_spin) in one Activity. I want to save the selected day_spin value into a variable. Is it possible to differenciate between the two spinners in the same Listener? Or do I have to write my own Listener class for each spinner?

Also I want to get the number of the selected item. For example I have String Array with 6 elements. I select number 3. How can I get the id?

    day_spin = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner);
    ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter_day = ArrayAdapter
            .createFromResource(this, R.array.spinner_day_array,
                    android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
    adapter_day
            .setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    day_spin.setAdapter(adapter_day);
    day_spin.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);

    time_spin = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner1);
    ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter_time = ArrayAdapter
            .createFromResource(this, R.array.spinner_time_array,
                    android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
    adapter_time
            .setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    time_spin.setAdapter(adapter_time);
    time_spin.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);

This is my Listener:

public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int pos, long id) {
    DAY = parent.getItemAtPosition(pos).toString();
    TIME = parent.getItemAtPosition(pos).toString();
}

I hope you can help me!

public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int pos, long id) {
    if(parent.getId() == R.id.spinner1)
    {
      //do this                    
    }
    else if(parent.getId() == R.id.spinner2)
    {
      //do this
    }
}
