How to hide/show button in Android ListView dynamically

Question

I have a listview with two buttons.

I want replace those two button with textview once I get the response from the server.

How can I achieve this?

After server response:

public void onResponse(String response) {
                    try {
                        JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(response);

                        if (obj.getString("response").equals("1")) {
                            JSONObject res = new JSONObject(obj.getString("data"));

                            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), obj.getString("message"), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        } else {
                            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), obj.getString("message"), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        }
                    } catch (JSONException e) {
                        e.printStackTrace();
                    }
                }

I have not created any adapter.

ok, first in your layout create theses two buttons and set visibility = visible and create textview and set it's visibility = gone , and when your response come you can set visibility for the buttons to be( gone) and for the textview to be (visible) — Mosa, Jan 07 '18 at 08:26

okay..let me tell you what i want is.. there is timer, once click lap button it will keep on generate like. 1. 00:00;45 scanButton 2. 00:00;45 scanButton etc. once I press the scan button am sending scan details to server and response will be fulname.. then I want to show that name in that particular row and hide that scan button..thats it. — Yana Shetty, Jan 07 '18 at 10:18

you need to extend ArrayAdapter for customizing your listview items.

On your xml, keep both button and text views and for the textview, keep

android:visibility="gone"

initialize both textview and button in your adapter class. when you get the response, enable textview visibility and disable button visibility

textView.setVisilibity(View.VISIBLE);
button.setVisilibity(View.GONE);

ok i understand your problem and the best way is using recyclerview instead of listview , first of all see this example or recyclerview recyclerview example this is simple and best than normal listview , second in onBindViewHolder function you can create your own listner like this

 @Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
    holder.your_sender_button.setonclickLinstener(new View.OnClickListener { @Override
    public void onClick(View view) {
      yourActivity.sendTimer(holder.btn1, your_sender_button, holder.your_textview_name);
    }
});
}

sendTimer is the function used service to send the timer and the parameters is your views, so when you get the response set the visibility for these views you passed in your function

how to use onActivityResult() in adapter to get results of scanner?? – Yana Shetty Jan 13 '18 at 13:00
you can't use onActivityResult in adapter, it used just in activity or fragment just – Mosa Jan 14 '18 at 05:36
