Spin.java

package com.and.spin;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.Spinner;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class spin extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        final TextView tv=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.txtv);

        Button b=(Button)findViewById(R.id.btn);
        final Spinner s=(Spinner)findViewById(R.id.spin);

        b.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {                            
            public void onClick(View arg0) {
                String spin=s.toString();
                tv.setText(spin);
            }
        });
    }
}

In this program, i'm trying to display selected options from the Spinner to the TextView. But output dsiplays android.widget.Spinner@44c0d7f8

I want output like (1,2,3,4 or 5) as the option selected in Spinner rather than android.widget.Spinner@44c0d7f8

Answer 1

b.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()
    {

        public void onClick(View arg0)
        {
            String spin=s.getSelectedItem().toString();
                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
            tv.setText(spin);
        }
    });
