copied!<p>It is quiet old UX problem - list view inside list view. It is not allowed in Android, but you can try some alternatives - <strong>one list view with different type of items</strong>. </p> <p>Android list view & adapter support ViewType elements, so you can easily implemented it. For example,</p> <pre><code>public class MainActivity extends Activity { @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list1); listView.setAdapter(new MyCustomAdapter(this)); } private class MyCustomAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Object> { public MyCustomAdapter(Context context) { super(context, 0); } @Override public int getViewTypeCount() { return 2; //any number what you need. } @Override public int getItemViewType(int position) { //view type is managed as zero-based index. if(position > 5) return 0; else return 1; } @Override public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { if( convertView == null ){ // View Recycling is managed separately based on its view type, // so you don't need to worry about view corruptions. LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater(); int type = getItemViewType(position); switch (type){ case 0: convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.item_type_0); case 1: convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.item_type_1); } } return convertView; } }//end of inner class }//end of class </code></pre> <p>You can use multiple view type in order to implement some special dividers or section bars, too. </p>
