i develop Android app, which needs to get JSON data from outside API - and create the Dialog with MultiChoice options using this data.
I dont really know if it's good idea, but Im getting API data with BaseAdapter, and I want to send them into my custom DialogFragment class. Here is sample of my code and way of thinking:
AsyncTask where I download data and pass them into Adapter:
public void onTaskComplete(JSONObject result) {
MyCustomAdapter adapter = new MyCustomAdapter(...);
try {
adapter.setOptions(result.getJSONArray("data"));
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
...
Adapter class:
public class MyCustomAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
public int itemCount = 0;
public CharSequence[] options;
public Context context;
public MyCustomAdapter(Context c) {
this.context = c;
}
public void setOptions(JSONArray data) {
options = new CharSequence[data.length()];
for(int i = 0; i < data.length(); i++) {
JSONObject obj;
try {
obj = data.getJSONObject(i).getJSONObject("someObj");
System.out.println(o.toString());
this.options[i] = o.getString("someString");
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
...
and there is CustomDialog class with static constructor here:
public class CustomDialog extends DialogFragment {
public static CustomDialog newInstance(CharSequence[] options) {
CustomDialog f = new CustomDialog();
Bundle args = new Bundle();
args.putCharSequenceArray("options", options);
f.setArguments(args);
return f;
}
...
That's why I've already coded, I want these classes to work together, but I dont know if it's good design solution - using Adapter to pass data to DialogFragment. To display my dialog I need to put these in activity:
DialogFragment newFragment = CustomDialog.newInstance(someCharsequence);
newFragment.show(myActivity.this.getFragmentManager(), "somedialog");
And I dont know how to use them together in efficient and elegant way, or maybe should I rethink something? Thanks!
