POHow to call more that one method inside of an `setOnItemClickListener(...`
text
Body
copied!<p>I have a <code>GridView</code> setup and I have implemented the <code>setOnItemClickListener</code> interface. Firstly I have made a little <code>Toast</code> just for feedback and then I moved on to calling my methods. The first method sort of works, I put it into a while loop that will call it until it returns <code>true</code>. The second method, when inserted into the code, prevents the first method from working at all, but I don't get any compiler errors.</p> <p>Here is my <code>onCreate</code> containing the <code>setOnItemClickListener()</code> <em>with my second method I want to insert commented out</em>:</p> <pre><code>@Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); GridView gridview = (GridView) findViewById(R.id.gridview); gridview.setAdapter(new ImageAdapter(this)); final GameplayController gc = new GameplayController(this); // Create board model, add units to player's list. final UnitArray gameBoardModel = new UnitArray(); gridview.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() { public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int position, long id) { Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "" + position, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); boolean next = false; while (next == false) { next = gc.choosePiece(position, gameBoardModel, (ImageView) v); } /*next = false; while (next == false) { next = gc.chooseEmpty(position, gameBoardModel, (ImageView) v); }*/ } }); } </code></pre> <p>I say the first method "kinda" of works because it is a method that will check if the position in the <code>GridView</code> selected is an "allowable" selection and will update the <code>ImageView</code> at that selection and then <code>return true</code>, otherwise it will <code>return false</code> with the idea being that it will loop until the user makes a "valid" selection. Now, if a valid selection is made, it indeed does update the <code>ImageView</code> at the selection accordingly, but when an "invalid" selection is made it simply freezes.</p> <p>So it "kinda" works, but when I insert my second method, it freezes even if a "valid" selection is made and it never makes it to the second method.</p> <p>I think there is something I'm missing about the <code>onItemClickListener()</code>.</p> <p>--------------------------EDIT-------------------ADDENDUM--------------</p> <p>In case it helps to see the first method I'm calling, </p> <pre><code>public boolean choosePiece(int position, UnitArray ua, ImageView iv) { if (ua.checkPiece(pNum, position) == true) { if (ua.checkType(position, "rock")) { ImageView v = iv; v.setImageResource(R.drawable.rock1select); return true; } if (ua.checkType(position, "paper")) { iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.paper1select); return true; } if (ua.checkType(position, "scissors")) { iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.scissors1select); return true; } } /* * With just the IF statements above catching the correct selections, my * program crashes. I thought simply adding the RETURN FALSE; to catch * everything else would work since it should just keep looping from the * mAINaCTIVITY until it hits one of them and RETURNS TRUE;. So I will * add this ELSE so that it will just redraw what is already there, * maybe that will fix it? Like, maybe it really really wants to use the * freaking listener for something. * * Nope, that didn't help at all. */ else { System.out.println("Ohhhh, NO YOU DIDN'T!!!"); if (ua.checkType(position, "rock")) { System.out.println("Bad rock!, BAD!"); ImageView v = iv; v.setImageResource(R.drawable.rock2); return false; } if (ua.checkType(position, "paper")) { ImageView v = iv; v.setImageResource(R.drawable.paper2); return false; } if (ua.checkType(position, "scissors")) { ImageView v = iv; v.setImageResource(R.drawable.scissors2); return false; } if (ua.checkType(position, "empty")) { ImageView v = iv; v.setImageResource(R.drawable.blank); return false; } } return false; } </code></pre> <p>Maybe there is something here that I have to add to tell the <code>onItemClick..</code> to move on and stop sending touch events here??</p>
