I'm trying to make a LazyList EndlessList but using a sectioned adapter...The sections will be pages of items that will be downloaded from the Internet.
I've tried to implement the basic gist of it using both a MergeAdapter or the deprecated SectionedAdapter (by Mark Murphy). But I'm facing issues with both of them.
1) Using the SectionedAdapter, It loads the first page fine, but on the second page I run into this exception.
Uncaught handler: thread main exiting due to uncaught exception
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

which after hours of research, i've realized it's something to do with a wrong getViewTypeCount() value. But I have no idea how to implement it correctly.
2) Then I tried using the MergeAdapter, but that simply made it worse, even the Sections appear at random intervals.
I've written a small example program just to show my implementation.
import java.math.BigInteger;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.os.AsyncTask;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.view.Window;
import android.widget.AbsListView;
import android.widget.AbsListView.OnScrollListener;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class LazySectionListActivity extends ListActivity implements
OnScrollListener {
private int mPrevItemCount;
private int nextPrimes = 0;
private final int MAX = 100;
private final SectionAdapter adapter = new SectionAdapter();
// private final MergeAdapter adapter = new MergeAdapter();
private class SectionAdapter extends SectionedAdapter {
@Override
protected View getHeaderView(String caption, int index,
View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
TextView tv = new TextView(LazySectionListActivity.this);
tv.setText(caption);
return tv;
}
}
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_INDETERMINATE_PROGRESS);
setProgressBarIndeterminate(true);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
getListView().setOnScrollListener(this);
setListAdapter(adapter);
new NextThousandPrimes(nextPrimes).execute();
nextPrimes += MAX;
}
@Override
public void onScroll(AbsListView view, int firstVisibleItem,
int visibleItemCount, int totalItemCount) {
if(firstVisibleItem + visibleItemCount >= totalItemCount
&& mPrevItemCount != totalItemCount) {
new NextThousandPrimes(nextPrimes).execute();
nextPrimes += MAX;
mPrevItemCount = totalItemCount;
}
}
@Override
public void onScrollStateChanged(AbsListView view, int scrollState) {
}
private class NextThousandPrimes extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> {
private final int start;
private final List<String> primes = new ArrayList<String>();
public NextThousandPrimes(int nextPrimes) {
this.start = nextPrimes;
}
@Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
setProgressBarIndeterminateVisibility(true);
}
@Override
protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) {
for(int s = start; s < start + MAX; s++)
if(BigInteger.valueOf(s).isProbablePrime(1)) {
primes.add(String.valueOf(s));
}
return null;
}
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(Void result) {
super.onPostExecute(result);
setProgressBarIndeterminateVisibility(false);
//TextView view = new TextView(LazySectionListActivity.this);//for merge adapter, use the commented code
//view.setText(String.format("%d-%d", start, start + MAX));
// adapter.addView(view);
// adapter.addAdapter(new
// ArrayAdapter<String>(LazySectionListActivity.this,
// android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,
// primes));
adapter.addSection(String.format("%d-%d", start, start + MAX),
new ArrayAdapter<String>(LazySectionListActivity.this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,
primes));
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
}
So what am i missing? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
