Question

My activity has a ListView that has a custom ArrayAdapter.
On my ArrayAdapter i have an image, a bunch of textboxes and a button.

On the getView of the adapter i get my button and set setOnClickListener. From the click listener i can get the index of the clicked item.

Now my problem is that i want to propagate that information to my main activity, where i want to handle my button click.
I can save the index information in a static var, but i still don’t know how to fire an event in my activity.

How do i do that?

I’m 6 days new to Android so, thanks
iggy

Code:

My Activity:

public class MyClass extends Activity{
...
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    ...
    myListView = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.lvxml);
    myList = new MyCustomArrayAdapter(this, myAnotherClassObject);
    myListView .setAdapter(myList);
    ...
    }
}

Now in my Adapter

public class MyCustomArrayAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<myAnotherClass> {
...
....
    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

         Button b = (Button)convertView.findViewById(R.id.myButtonInListView);
         b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
             public void onClick(View v) {
                 doStuff;
             }
     });
    }
}

I need to somehow fire a buttonclick from my main activity, but without loosing the possibility to read the index clicked in the list view.

So I’ve solved it somehow. It’s probably not the way to do it but it works.

I save my activity in a static var.

Button b = (Button)convertView.findViewById(R.id.myButtonInListView);
b.setTag(position);
b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
         public void onClick(View v) {
             int i = (Integer) v.getTag();
             myStaticVarRep.myActivity.myMethod(i);
         }
 });
