Question

I want to implement two different spinner in Android, the spinner have different data set

This is the spinner with the age, that uses a defined String array with all age ranges (es 18-20, 19-21 etc.)

 <Spinner
        android:id="@+id/spAge"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="35dp"
        android:entries="@array/age_array" 
        tools:listitem="@android:layout/simple_spinner_item/>

And this is the spinner with the sex, that show only the two items Male and Female

 <Spinner
       android:id="@+id/spSex"
       android:layout_width="match_parent"
       android:layout_height="35dp"
       android:entries="@array/sex_array"
       tools:listitem="@android:layout/simple_spinner_item />

For each selected item the my activity should set the associated selected items values to the two Objects:

String selectedAge;
String selectedItem;

The sample that I have seen doesn’t contains multiple spinner with different items set and different actions on item selected, and I don’t know how to solve the problem.

Answer 1

Try this

 ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapterAge; 
 ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapterSex;

 String[] AgeArr = {"18-20", "19-21"};
 String[] sexArr = {"male", "female"};

 Spinner ageDrp =(Spinner)findViewById(R.id.spAge);
 Spinner sex1Drp    =(Spinner)findViewById(R.id.spSex);

adapterAge =    new ArrayAdapter<CharSequence>(this,android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item,AgeArr);
adapterAge.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
ageDrp.setAdapter(adapterAge);

adapterSex=     new ArrayAdapter<CharSequence>(this,android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item,sexArr);
adapterSex.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
sexDrp.setAdapter(adapterSex);

String selectedAge  = ageDrp.getSelectedItem().toString();
String selectedSex  = sexDrp.getSelectedItem().toString();
System.out.println(selectedAge+" "+selectedSex);// check the output in logcat
