A new bug with GridView.TAG.

Hi Shahid and all, the B4AGridView is updated to v3.25.

fix: Tag and minor bugs, code below.

Sub GridView_ItemClick(Position As Int, Value As Object)

    Dim vid As PhotoGridView = Sender
   
    vidmap.Put("video_id",Position)
   
    vid.Tag = vidmap
   
    posSelected = Position

    GridView.SetText(Position,vid.Tag)
   
    GridView.SetBackgroundImage(Value)
   
End Sub

I'm really sorry for the inconvenience.

 

[lonleystar]

Hi I forgot to tell everybody, added: Text_Bottom_OutSide

 

[deltacode]

Thanks for the quick update but there is one step forward and two back.

The tag works , the outside text bottom works

Now the bad news
The SetText still updates both panels and even worse now adding images updates both panels where in 3.20 it did at least update the images in the two panels differently and correctly

java.lang.Exception: Sub gridview_itemclick signature does not match expected signature.

Hi Shahid,
GridView_ItemClick(Position AsInt, Value AsObject) instead of GridView_ItemClick(Position AsInt, Tag As Object, Value AsObject)

I removed Tag As Object from the evnts

Tag get or sets work fine now.

Items are getting repeated from one activity to another activity.

after using this GridView_ItemClick(Position AsInt, Value AsObject) the signature error gone.
In Tag instead of video id I am getting the item position not the video_id, or if I use this code I'm getting same video id for all items:

Dim video_title As String = album_videos.Get("video_title")
Dim video_image As String = album_videos.Get("video_image")
Dim video_id As String = album_videos.Get("video_id")
Dim vidmap As Map
vidmap.Initialize
vidmap.Put("video_id",video_id)
GridView.Tag = vidmap
GridView.AddImageFromWeb(video_image)
GridView.SetText(vid_row, video_title)

Sub GridView_ItemClick(Position As Int, Tag As Object, Value As Object)  
    posSelected = Position
    Dim vid As PhotoGridView = Sender
    Dim vidmap As Map = vid.Tag
    Log(vidmap.Get("video_id"))  
End Sub

 

[Shahid Saeed]

Instead of going with Tag I have gone through a different process as below and now i am getting the individual Video Id's

I have created a Global List Variable and added the video id to it. and on item_click i have collected the Video ID through item position

Sub Process_Globals
    Dim VideoID_TAG As List
End Sub

Sub ParseJSON(json As String)
    Dim parser As JSONParser
    parser.Initialize(json)
   
    Dim root As Map = parser.NextObject
    Dim albums As List = root.Get("albums")
    Dim actAlbum As Int = -1   
    For Each col_albums As Map In albums
        actAlbum = actAlbum +1         
        Dim album_title As String = col_albums.Get("album_title")
        VideoID_TAG.Initialize
        If actAlbum = AlbumID Then       
        Dim Videos As List = col_albums.Get("videos")
            Dim vid_row As Int = -1
            For Each album_videos As Map In Videos
            vid_row = vid_row +1
            Dim video_title As String = album_videos.Get("video_title")
            Dim video_image As String = album_videos.Get("video_image")
            Dim video_id As String = album_videos.Get("youtube_id")            
            VideoID_TAG.Add(video_id)
            'GridView.Tag = vidmap
            GridView.AddImageFromWeb(video_image)
            GridView.SetText(vid_row, video_title)   
            Next           
        Page_title.Text = album_title
        End If       
    Next   
End Sub

Sub GridView_ItemClick(Position As Int, Value As Object)       
    posSelected = Position    
    Log(Position)
    Log(VideoID_TAG.Get(Position))
    YouTube(VideoID_TAG.Get(Position))      
End Sub

Now the strange thing remains in the new update, If I am moving from one activity to another the items are being repeated on every activity. Even if The activity restarts it has the repeated items.

Hi Shahid, U right I found it too, but I'm checking it to understand why because I dint change nothing just added Text_Bottom_OutSide and fix the tag that's all.


A little patience thanks.

 

[lonleystar]

Hi guys, B4AGridView is fixed and updated to v3.30. Please download again the lib v3.30


Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks lonelystar, can confirm the pictures are now fixed

The SetText still repeats the text on all views on any panel/activity , can this be fixed ?

Hi Deltacode, U right, I'll fix it.

 

[Shahid Saeed]

@lonleystar is the above issue fixed? I just want to ask one more thing, when we scroll through GridView, and move between images, it re-loads already loaded images, cannot we just load once and keep the images intact until unless we restart the activity?

 

[lonleystar]

Hi Shahid, if u use ( GridView.CacheInMemory = False ) it doesnt old the image in memory.

This is useful to prevents out of memory for old mobile.

 

[Shahid Saeed]

This is how I am using it but still When you scroll through images its reloads the images:

GridView.CacheInMemory = False
GridView.CacheOnDisk = True

This is the working APP link you can check in both Videos and Pictures Albums while scrolling the GridView the images will start loading again:

Hi lonleystar

Have you managed to get anywhere with the settext issue ? Once this is fixed i shall be donating for a great library.

Also i noticed on B4APhotoPager that somebody requested to add a bitmap, can that be added to this library as well ?

Hi, for the settext I'm working to understand how I can do that for the second question yes I'm implementing the same engine like GridView and i'll implement also AddBitmap.
