Hi,

I have a listview which includes 2 textviews and 1 imageview. Now, the image in imageview will be set on certain conditions otherwise it should be left blank with no image.

The problem is the images are not coming in proper rows. Say, for eg the image should be displayed at row 3 but its displayed at row 4. And, in some cases each row will have the same image.

Has someone faced this kind of an issue? I am really clueless about the reason behind this. Can anyone point out the problem?

Regards

Sunil

private static class VilleAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
    private LayoutInflater mInflater = null;

    // private Context context = null;

    public VilleAdapter(Context context) {
        // Cache the LayoutInflate to avoid asking for a new one each time.
        mInflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
    }

    /**

    public int getCount() {
        // return BabbleMainListParse.getNumOfBabbles();
        return VilleMainListParse.getVilleCount();

        // A ViewHolder keeps references to children views to avoid

        ViewHolder holder;

        // When convertView is not null, we can reuse it directly, there is

        if (convertView == null) 
        {
            convertView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.villerow, parent,false);

            // Creates a ViewHolder and store references to the two children

            holder.txtVilleDescription = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.txtVilleDescription);
            holder.imgvillepwd = (ImageView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.imgvillepwd);

            convertView.setTag(holder);
        }
        else 
        {
            // Get the ViewHolder back to get fast access to the TextView
            holder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
        }

        // Bind the data efficiently with the holder.
        holder.txtVilleListTitle.setText(VilleMainListParse.getMsgTitle(position));

        if(VilleMainListParse.getMsgDesc(position).length() > 30)
        {
            String temp = VilleMainListParse.getMsgDesc(position).substring(0, 30);
            temp = temp +".....";
            holder.txtVilleDescription.setText(temp);
        }
        else
            holder.txtVilleDescription.setText(VilleMainListParse.getMsgDesc(position));

        if(!VilleMainListParse.getPwd(position).equals(""))
        {
            if(VilleMainListParse.getUnlock(position))
            {
                holder.imgvillepwd.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.lock);
            }   
            else if(!VilleMainListParse.getUnlock(position))
            {
                holder.imgvillepwd.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.lock_open);
            }
        }

        return convertView;
    }

    static class ViewHolder
    {
        TextView txtVilleListTitle;
        TextView txtVilleDescription;
        ImageView imgvillepwd;
    }
}

The above code is only of the Adapter. There is a login screen initially when the login button is clicked the data is loaded from the internet and then this listview is loaded with this data. This data is loaded properly initially.

Can someone let me know what is the problem with this code?

You can edit your own post to add code snippet. No need to post it as an answer.

Oh thanks for letting me know this. Will keep this in mind from the next time.

As you're reusing the same views you should clear the image if it shouldn't be displayed. Otherwise the previous picture will be displayed there. So I suggest the following fix:

if(!VilleMainListParse.getPwd(position).equals(""))
{
    if(VilleMainListParse.getUnlock(position))
    {
        holder.imgvillepwd.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.lock);
    }   
    else if(!VilleMainListParse.getUnlock(position))
    {
        holder.imgvillepwd.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.lock_open);
    }
}
else
    holder.imgvillepwd.setBackgroundDrawable(null);

Ah! I thought so. But I didn't set it as null. I was actually making its visibility to GONE, but that was also resulting to some weird output. Anyways, setting background to null really worked out. I think the method should be setBackgroundDrawable(null). Thanks a lot anyways.

You may also consider using setImageResource/setImageBitmap methods instead of setBackgroundXxx.
