How to get one string value from the Mainactivity to a cardview Adapter?


I have the get location method running on the mainactivity which gets the latitude and longitude of the user and stores it in the form of a string. My cardview holds the contacts added by the user in the phone in the form of a recyclerview in the mainactivity itself.

How can I transfer the two strings of Latitude and Longitude that I get from the main activity to my cardview customAdapter that is supposed to take that location and send an sms whenever that particular contact's cardview is pressed.

I tried using putExtra to pass the string but I get the cannot resolve method error right now.

This is my updateLocation()method that records the location data in the MainActivity

   private void updateLocation(Location location) {
    //update the location of the person
     x = String.valueOf(location.getLatitude());
     y = String.valueOf(location.getLongitude());
    Toast.makeText(this,"Latitude = "+x,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    Toast.makeText(this,"Longitude = "+y,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    Intent SendLocation = new Intent(this, CustomAdapter.class);
    SendLocation.putExtra("mLatitude", x);
    SendLocation.putExtra("mLongitude", y);

}

and this is my cardview customAdapter

public class CustomAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<CustomAdapter.MyViewHolder> {
private Context context;
public ArrayList Contact_id, Contact_Name, Contact_number;
public ImageView mDelete, mMakeCall, mSendText;
public String Latitude="0",Longitude="0";




CustomAdapter(Context context, ArrayList Contact_id, ArrayList Contact_Name, ArrayList Contact_number,String mLatitude,String mLongitude) {
    this.context = context;
    this.Contact_id = Contact_id;
    this.Contact_Name = Contact_Name;
    this.Contact_number = Contact_number;
    this.Latitude= mLatitude;
    this.Longitude=mLongitude;
}

@NonNull
@Override
public MyViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {

    LayoutInflater inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.cardview_contact_item, parent, false);
    return new MyViewHolder(view);
}

@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull MyViewHolder holder, int position) {
    holder.Contact_Name_txt.setText(String.valueOf(Contact_Name.get(position)));
    holder.Contact_Number_txt.setText(String.valueOf(Contact_number.get(position)));
}

@Override
public int getItemCount() {
    return Contact_id.size();
}

public class MyViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
    TextView Contact_id_txt, Contact_Name_txt, Contact_Number_txt;

    public MyViewHolder(@NonNull View itemView) {
        super(itemView);
        mDelete = itemView.findViewById(R.id.Cardview_delete);
        mMakeCall = itemView.findViewById(R.id.Cardview_MakeCall);
        mSendText = itemView.findViewById(R.id.Cardview_MakeText);
        Contact_Name_txt = itemView.findViewById(R.id.CardView_Name);
        Contact_Number_txt = itemView.findViewById(R.id.CardView_Number);
        SharedPreferences mPreference = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(context);
        SharedPreferences.Editor editor = mPreference.edit();


        mDelete.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                Toast.makeText(context, "Item Removed", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }

        });
        mMakeCall.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                Toast.makeText(context, "Calling Contact", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }

        });
        mSendText.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                //
                Intent smsIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
                String phonenumber = Contact_Number_txt.getText().toString();
                try {
                    Latitude = "drats";
                    SmsManager mySmsManager = SmsManager.getDefault();
                    mySmsManager.sendTextMessage(phonenumber, null, "I NEED HELP AT LATITUDE:" + Latitude + "LONGITUDE" + Longitude, null, null);
                    Toast.makeText(context, "Alert Message Sent", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    Toast.makeText(context, "LATITUDE:" + Latitude, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    Toast.makeText(context, "LONGITUDE:" + Longitude, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                }
                catch (Exception e)
                {
                    Toast.makeText(context, "Something went wrong/Fields are Empty", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                }
                //Toast.makeText(context,"The number is "+phonenumber, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

            }
        });


    }//End of OnCreate

}

}

}

    Log.d("Latitude","enable");
}

public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {
    Log.d("Latitude","status");
}
 }

I would really love any assistance in helping me figure this out.


Solution

  • If I understood the situation correctly, you can do something like this :-

    Add two more parameters in your adapter constructor like this:

    CustomAdapter(Context context, ArrayList Contact_id, ArrayList Contact_Name, ArrayList Contact_number, String Latitude, String Longitude) {
        this.context = context;
        this.Contact_id = Contact_id;
        this.Contact_Name = Contact_Name;
        this.Contact_number = Contact_number;
        this.Latitude = Latitude;
        this.Longitude = Longitude;
    }
    

    Now, in your MainActivity, have two Strings like this :

    public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
        ...//Other variables and stuff
        private String Latitude="0", Longitude="0";
        ...//onCreate(), etc
    }
    

    And pass these two temporarily in the adapter while making an instance.

    And change the updateLocation() to something like this :

    private void updateLocation(Location location) {
        //update the location of the person
        Latitude = String.valueOf(location.getLatitude());
        Longitude = String.valueOf(location.getLongitude());
        Toast.makeText(this,"Latitude = " + Latitude, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        Toast.makeText(this,"Longitude = " + Longitude , Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        recyclerView.setAdapter(new CustomAdapter(MainActivity.this, Contact_id, Contact_Name, Contact_Number,mLatitude,mLongitude));
        recyclerView.invalidate(); 
    }
    

    If you need any further clarification, let me know.
