I am working on an app where the user creates an form in the MainActivity. By clicking on the add button a listview appears (QuestionActivity). In this activity some questions appear. By clicking on, let's say question 1 (Question1 activity), an edittext appears where users can set the name for this form which appears in the MainActivity, also in a listview.
The one thing I am struggling with is the fact that when I open an already saved form, I arrive at the questionlist in QuestionActivity. But when I click on Question 1, the data I already saved here is gone. So I want the users to be able to view and change the data they already saved. But I am not sure how to do this.
I should probably be using an onResume method in the QuestionActivity but I hope someone can help me to do this in a proper way.
Here are my codes:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private ListView mListViewNotes;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mListViewNotes = findViewById(R.id.main_listview_notes);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.action_main_new_note:
Intent newActivity = new Intent(this, QuestionsActivity.class);
startActivity(newActivity);
break;
}
return true;
}
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
mListViewNotes.setAdapter(null);
ArrayList<Note> notes = Utilities.getAllSavedNotes(this);
if (notes ==null || notes.size() == 0) {
Toast.makeText(this, "no saved notes", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return;
}else {
NoteAdapter na = new NoteAdapter(this, R.layout.item_note, notes);
mListViewNotes.setAdapter(na);
mListViewNotes.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int position, long id) {
String fileName = ((Note)mListViewNotes.getItemAtPosition(position)).getDateTime()
+ Utilities.FILE_EXTENSION;
Intent viewNoteIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),QuestionsActivity.class);
viewNoteIntent.putExtra("NOTE_FILE", fileName);
startActivity(viewNoteIntent);
}
});
}
}
}
public class QuestionsActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
ListView lv;
String[] charactersDC = {"Question 1", "Question 2", "Question 3", "Question 4", "Question 5"};
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_questions);
lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.idListView);
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, charactersDC);
lv.setAdapter(adapter);
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
if(position == 0)
{
String stringFromQuestion1Result = ((Note)lv.getItemAtPosition(position)).getDateTime()
+ Utilities.FILE_EXTENSION;
Intent myIntent = new Intent(QuestionsActivity.this, Question1.class);
myIntent.putExtra("SAVED_FILE", stringFromQuestion1Result);
