Question

I want to select all check boxes in a listview but I’m not able to get checkbox objects from the listview. I can select a single check box but not multiple check boxes.

Your suggestion are appreciable.

Code:

   public class MainActivity extends Activity {
   @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.bir);
    mainListView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.mainListView);
    selectall = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
    selectall.setOnClickListener(this);
    save = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button2);
    save.setOnClickListener(this);

    mainListView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener()

            {
                @Override
                public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View item,
                        int position, long id) {

                }
            });
  }
}

class Amphian:

 private static class Amphian 
        {
            private String name = "" ;
            private boolean checked = false ;
            public Amphian( String name ) 
            {
              this.name = name ;
            }
            public Amphian( String name, boolean checked )
            {
              this.name = name ;
              this.checked = checked ;
            }
            public String getName() {
              return name;
            }
            public void setName(String name) {
              this.name = name;
            }
            public boolean isChecked() {
              return checked;
            }
            public void setChecked(boolean checked) {
              this.checked = checked;
            }
            @Override
            public String toString() {
              return name ; 
            }
            public void toggleChecked() 
            {
              checked = !checked ;
            }
        }

class AmphiansArrayAdapter:

    public class AmphiansArrayAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Amphian> 
         {
             Integer name[] =

            private final LayoutInflater inflater;

            public AmphiansArrayAdapter(Context context, List<Amphian> amphianList) 
            {
                super( context, R.layout.simplerow, R.id.rowTextView, amphianList );
                 inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context) ;
            }

            @Override
            public View getView( final int position,  View convertView , ViewGroup parent)
            {
                final Amphian amphian=this.getItem(position);

                mp=new MediaPlayer();
                 if ( convertView == null ) 
                 {
                        convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.simplerow, null);

                        // Find the child views.

Answer 1

There is too much code to read, so I give you a sample how to do that:

int count = list.getCount();
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
    View child = list.getItemAtPosition(i);
    //check that child..
}

or

int count = list.getChildCount();
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
    View child = list.getChildAt(i);
    //check that child..
}
