I tried to have 2 spinners in the same interface, but it is not working. Why ? It displays only one spinner.
One retrieve information from database android:id="@+id/sp11" and the other from string file android:id="@+id/typeMessage_spinner".
Only the one that retrive from array @string file works.
If I delete android:id="@+id/typeMessage_spinner" the one that retrieve from database works.
And in the interface only one spinner is displayed.
like this

Here is my code in onCreate(). Look at my fist spinner and in onPostExecute() i have the second spinner
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
JSONParser jParser = new JSONParser(); // class
ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> coursesList;
private static String url_all_course = "http://10.0.2.2/SmsPhp/view_all_course.php";
private static final String TAG_SUCCESS = "success";
private static final String TAG_course = "course";
private static final String TAG_CourseID = "CourseID";
private static final String TAG_Name = "Name";
JSONArray courses = null;
// Spinner element
SpinnerAdapter adapter,adapter1;
Spinner spinner ,spinner1;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
coursesList = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
spinner= (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.typeMessage_spinner);
spinner1= (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.sp11);
// Create an ArrayAdapter using the string array and a default spinner layout
ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource( MainActivity .this,
R.array.typeMessage_spinner, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
// Specify the layout to use when the list of choices appears
adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
// Apply the adapter to the spinner
spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
new LoadAllCourses().execute();
}
class LoadAllCourses extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> {
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... args) {
// Building Parameters
List<NameValuePair> params = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
// getting JSON string from URL
JSONObject json = jParser.makeHttpRequest(url_all_course, "GET",
params);
// Check your log cat for JSON response
Log.d("All courses: ", json.toString());
try {
// Checking for SUCCESS TAG
int success = json.getInt(TAG_SUCCESS);
if (success == 1) {
// course found
// Getting Array of course
courses = json.getJSONArray(TAG_course);
// looping through All courses
for (int i = 0; i < courses.length(); i++)// course
// JSONArray
{
JSONObject c = courses.getJSONObject(i); // read first
// Storing each json item in variable
String CourseID = c.getString(TAG_CourseID);
String Name = c.getString(TAG_Name);
// creating new HashMap
HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
// adding each child node to HashMap key => value
map.put(TAG_CourseID, CourseID);
map.put(TAG_Name, Name);
// adding HashList to ArrayList
coursesList.add(map);
}
} else {
}
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
/**
* After completing background task Dismiss the progress dialog
* **/
protected void onPostExecute(String file_url) {
// dismiss the dialog after getting all products
adapter1 = new CustomAdapter(MainActivity.this,
android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item,
coursesList);
spinner1.setAdapter(adapter1); // Set the custom adapter to the spinner
// You can create an anonymous listener to handle the event when is selected an spinner item
spinner1.setOnItemSelectedListener(new CustomOnItemSelectedListener() {
/* @Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view,
int position, long id) {
// Here you get the current item (a User object) that is selected by its position
ArrayAdapter<HashMap<String, String>> x = (ArrayAdapter<HashMap<String, String>>) adapter.getItem(position);
// Here you can do the action you want to...
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "ID: "+ x ,
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}*/
@Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> adapter) { }
});
}
}
}
You have positioned the two spinners on the exact same location.
Try moving one spinner to some other direction
