    <p>I was working on my text adventure game, and was wondering if there is an easier way to program repetitive blocks of code such as what I have below. </p> <p>In this block, the user is presented with N,E,S,W for North, East, South, and West. So I write each listener separately and include a try/catch block in each listener. But the whole block of code now seems really repetitive. </p> <p>Here is the block of code: </p> <pre><code>btnNorth.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { tvIntro.setText("You go north"); String testString = "nothing"; try { testString = Encounter.EncounterGeneratorText(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } testString = Encounter.EncounterGeneratorText(); tvIntro.setText(testString); try { Thread.sleep(500); } catch (InterruptedException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } tvIntro.setText(testString); } }); btnEast.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { tvIntro.setText("You go east"); String testString = "nothing"; try { testString = Encounter.EncounterGeneratorText(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } testString = Encounter.EncounterGeneratorText(); tvIntro.setText(testString); try { Thread.sleep(500); } catch (InterruptedException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } tvIntro.setText(testString); } }); btnSouth.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { tvIntro.setText("You go south"); String testString = "nothing"; try { testString = Encounter.EncounterGeneratorText(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } testString = Encounter.EncounterGeneratorText(); tvIntro.setText(testString); try { Thread.sleep(500); } catch (InterruptedException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } tvIntro.setText(testString); } }); btnWest.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { tvIntro.setText("you go west"); String testString = "nothing"; try { testString = Encounter.EncounterGeneratorText(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } testString = Encounter.EncounterGeneratorText(); tvIntro.setText(testString); try { Thread.sleep(500); } catch (InterruptedException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } tvIntro.setText(testString); }; }); </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
