Question

This tutorial – http://andytsui.wordpress.com/2011/06/29/tutorial-displaying-multiple-lists-in-one-single-listview-with-android-binding/ – shows exactly what I want to do, but it uses an external library to accomplish it. I was hoping it would be possible to do it with the built in android utilities.

This is what I have now. >> https://i.stack.imgur.com/hwplv.png

foobar.zip, links.zip, and zips.zip come from the bootimg402 link, and I would like them displayed under that header, and the other zips under the other heading.

Headers are created with

        mURLURLS = new String[] {"http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12083-unsecured-stock-bootimg402/", "http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12451-rom-android-open-kang-project-toro-build-2012-dec-31/"};         
    for (int i=0; i<mURLURLS.length; i++) {
        getListView().addHeaderView(buildHeader(mURLURLS[i]));
    }

   private View buildHeader(String mURLURLS) {
    TextView header = new TextView(this);
    header.setText(mURLURLS);
    header.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.dialog_full_holo_dark);
    header.setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.ics));
    return header;
   }

And the listview is populated through an ArrayList, which I can provide if needed, though I dont imagine its necessary.

Answer 1

You can use my MergeAdapter for that. Create views for your headers and interleave them between your adapters for the contents within those headers.
