Im trying to set up a project with an navigation drawer as a central feature. It is supposed to show the names of all files in the apps internal file directory. To update that list i figured it would be best overriding the onDrawerOpen
method of the ActionBarToggle
. The code of the main activity:
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close){
@Override
public void onDrawerOpened(View view){
super.onDrawerOpened(view);
File f = new File(getFilesDir().toString());
File[] files = f.listFiles();
String[] testString = {"Text1","Text2","Text3"};
String[] fileNames = new String[files.length];
for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
fileNames[i] = files[i].getName();
}
ListView listView = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.file_list);
listView.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(MainActivity.this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, testString));
}
//Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this,fileNames[0], Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
@Override
public void onDrawerClosed(View view){
super.onDrawerClosed(view);
}
};
drawer.setDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
}
And the xml files:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:openDrawer="start">
<include
layout="@layout/app_bar_main"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="@+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header_main"
app:menu="@menu/activity_main_drawer" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
The referenced activity_main_drawer
menu looks like this
<group android:checkableBehavior="single">
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_camera"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_camera"
android:title="Import" />
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_gallery"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_gallery"
android:title="Gallery" />
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_slideshow"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_slideshow"
android:title="Slideshow" />
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_manage"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_manage"
android:title="Tools" />
</group>
<item android:title="Communicate">
<menu>
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_share"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_share"
android:title="Share" />
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_send"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_send"
android:title="Send" />
</menu>
</item>
<group android:id="@+id/gruppe">
<ListView android:id="@+id/file_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
android:divider="@android:color/transparent"
android:dividerHeight="0dp"
android:background="#111"/>
</group>
So im trying to set the adapter to the ListView with id "file_list" but i recieve an nullPointerException to that ListView. Can anybody please tell me what im doing wrong? Thanks in advance!
