Question

I’ve got a spinner working where onItemSelected outputs a Toast. I want it to display a string value in a textview instead. So how would you rewrite the below method to show a string in a textview called denomiTV:

    public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, 
View view, int pos, long id) { 
Toast.makeText(parent.getContext()), "Your Selection is: " + 
parent.getItemAtPosition(pos).toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); 
} 

I tried this, but Eclipse says that .setText is not correct here:

    public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, 
View view, int pos, long id) { 
    denomiTV.setText(parent.getContext(), "Your selection is:" +
    parent.getItemAtPosition(pos));
    } 

Answer 1

setText() takes a single CharSequence argument… you shouldn’t be passing in a Context.

denomiTV.setText("Your selection is:" + parent.getItemAtPosition(pos));
