How get TextView id from table row


I draw table top and then table body. In each table cell I have TextView, so how can I get it's id or another number, when user clicked on it?

    @Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    TableLayout lTableLayout;
    lTableLayout = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.tbLayout);

    /*Draw table top*/
    TableRow trTop = new TableRow(this);
    trTop.setPadding(0, 5, 0, 0);
    trTop.setBackgroundColor(Color.rgb(102, 178, 255));
    lTableLayout.addView(trTop, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
    String[] str = new String[]{"Time", "Room1", "Room2"};
    for(int j=0; j<3; j++){
        TextView tv1 = new TextView(this);
        tv1.setPadding(2, 2, 2, 2);
        tv1.setTextSize(14);
        tv1.setText(str[j]);
        trTop.addView(tv1,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
    }
    /*Draw table body*/
    for(int i=0; i<5; i++){

        final TableRow tr1 = new TableRow(this);
        tr1.setPadding(0, 5, 0, 0);



        if((i%2) == 0)
            tr1.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
        lTableLayout.addView(tr1, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
        for(int j=0; j<3; j++){

            final TextView tv1 = new TextView(this);
            tv1.setPadding(2, 2, 2, 2);
            tv1.setTextSize(12);
            if(j==0){
                tv1.setText(8+i + ":00");
            }else{
                tv1.setText("reserved");
            }
            tr1.addView(tv1,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
            tv1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View arg0) {
                    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "id = " + tv1.getId(),
                            Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                    Log.e("TAG", " clicked ID: " + tr1.getId());
                }
            });
        }

    }

Here I'm looking for id:

public void onClick(View arg0) {
                    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "id = " + tv1.getId(),
                            Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                    Log.e("TAG", " clicked ID: " + tr1.getId());
                }
            });

But TOAST says : "id = -1" for each textview.


Solution

  • public void onClick(View arg0) {
                        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "id = " + tv1.getId(),
                                Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                        Log.e("TAG", " clicked ID: " + tr1.getId());
                    }
                });
    

    Seems like you're expecting to get a log.e() with tv1.getId() and it says tr1.getId(), so you're getting the Table row Id and not the TextView Id. Try changing tr1 to tv1 and tell me if it worked.

    EDIT:

    Everytime you create a textview and a table row, assign them Ids manually with tr1.setId(i) and tv1.setId(j). It should work with that.
