Android Question B4XCOMBO on CustomListView - Finding clv item

Andrew (Digitwell) said:

I have a B4xCombobox on a panel in a custom list view which has multiple instances of the panel.

When the user changes a combobox the _SelectedIndexChanged event is called.

Normally I would use:

B4X:

    Private vw As B4XView = Sender

    Private indx As Int  = clv.GetItemFromView(vw) ' Crash on this line
    Log("Clv Index = "& indx)
End Sub

But this causes a crash. Is there any way to find out which item in a CLV is pressed ?

Thanks

B4X:

Private vw As View = Sender

Private vw As B4XView = Sender

Private vw As View = Sender

Walter,

I'm not sure that will make any difference as GetItemFromView takes a B4XView.
the error becomes :
java.lang.ClassCastException: uk.co.digitwell.tickedit.b4xcombobox cannot be cast to android.view.View

Click to expand...

Dim index As Int = CLV.GetItemFromView(Sender)

Andrew (Digitwell) said:

Sorry.
same error as above.
java.lang.ClassCastException: uk.co.digitwell.tickedit.b4xcombobox cannot be cast to android.view.View

I think I have a workaround.
I made the mBase item of the B4xCombo public.

so the code is now:

B4X:

    Private b4xcb As B4XComboBox = Sender

    Private vw As B4XView= b4xcb.mBase
   
    Private indx As Int  = clv.GetItemFromView(vw)
    Log("Clv Index = "& indx)

This now works but is not ideal as I don't like to alter provided controls.

Click to expand...

Dim vw as Spinner = Sender
Dim index As Int = CLV1.GetItemFromView(vw)

Andrew (Digitwell) said:

Sorry walter, same error as before.

java.lang.ClassCastException: uk.co.digitwell.tickedit.b4xcombobox cannot be cast to android.view.View

I think the problem is that the Sender is the B4xCombo class which is not inherited from View.

Click to expand...

Public Sub AsView As B4XView
    #if B4J
    return cmbBox
    #Else If B4i
    return mBtn
    #Else
    return cmbBox
    #End If
End Sub

Dim vw as B4XView = Sender
Dim index As Int = CLV1.GetItemFromView(vw.AsView)
