How to extend an array after initialization in android listview?
This example demonstrate about How to extend an array after initialization in the android listview.
Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all required details to create a new project.
Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical" android:gravity="center_horizontal" android:layout_marginTop="30dp" tools:context=".MainActivity"> <ListView android:id="@+id/list" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"> </ListView> </LinearLayout>
In the code, we have taken listview to show array values.
Step 3 − Add the following code to src/MainActivity.java
package com.example.myapplication;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.ListView;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Collections;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
ListView list;
String[] names = new String[] { "A", "B", "C" };
String[] extended = new String[5];
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
list = findViewById(R.id.list);
extended[3] = "D";
extended[4] = "E";
System.arraycopy(names, 0, extended, 0, names.length);
ArrayAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, extended);
list.setAdapter(adapter);
}
