/** Called when the activity is first created. */
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
super.onCreate(icicle);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
// Create an array of Strings, that will be put to our ListActivity
String[] names = new String[] { "Linux", "Windows7", "Eclipse", "Suse", "Ubuntu", "Solaris", "Android", "iPhone"};
// Create an ArrayAdapter, that will actually make the Strings above
// appear in the ListView
this.setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
R.id.MyList, names));
gestureListener = new ListView.OnTouchListener() {
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
if (gestureDetector.onTouchEvent(event)) {
return true;
}
return false;
}
};
}
@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
// Get the item that was clicked
Object o = this.getListAdapter().getItem(position);
String keyword = o.toString();
Toast.makeText(this, "You selected: " + keyword, Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
.show();
}
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
if (gestureDetector.onTouchEvent(event))
return true;
else
return false;
}
class MyGestureDetector extends SimpleOnGestureListener {
@Override
public boolean onFling(MotionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float velocityX, float velocityY) {
try {
if (Math.abs(e1.getY() - e2.getY()) > SWIPE_MAX_OFF_PATH)
return false;
// right to left swipe
if(e1.getX() - e2.getX() > SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE && Math.abs(velocityX) > SWIPE_THRESHOLD_VELOCITY) {
Context ctx = getApplicationContext();
CharSequence txt = "Right to Left Swipe";
int duration = Toast.LENGTH_LONG;
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(ctx, txt, duration);
toast.show();
Toast.makeText( this.getItem(lv.pointToPosition((int)e1.getX(),(int) e1.getY())));
// return super.onFling();
} else if (e2.getX() - e1.getX() > SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE && Math.abs(velocityX) > SWIPE_THRESHOLD_VELOCITY) {
