first off I apologise if it's a dumb question as I'm a noob when it comes to Android and StackOverflow too...
I'm trying to read a twitter json feed and then push the various tweets into a ViewFlipper so it cycles horizontally between them...I just need the date (formatted) and the text of the tweet... I've already got the feed working and I can cycle between the tweets, my question is how to inject them into the viewflipper? Right now I'm inflating a layout xml and using addView to get them in there, which works, but I have no idea how to set the two textviews in the inflated view...
Is there another way perhaps that's easier?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Some source code
ViewFlipper flipper = (ViewFlipper) findViewById(R.id.twitterFlipper);
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
and the for loop:
for (int i = 0; i < jsonArray.length(); i++) {
JSONObject jsonObject = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);
flipper.addView(inflater.inflate(R.layout.twitter_item, flipper, false));
Log.i("first", jsonObject.getString("text"));
}
Try this:
for (int i = 0; i < jsonArray.length(); i++) {
JSONObject jsonObject = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.twitter_item, flipper, false);
TextView textView1 = view.findViewById(R.id.text1);
TextView textView2 = view.findViewById(R.id.text2);
textView1.setText("Some text 1");
textView2.setText("Some text 2");
flipper.addView(view);
Log.i("first", jsonObject.getString("text"));
}
Of course, replace the TextView resource id according to your layout.
