Hello world.

I have some clvs with names of my students. When i click on a student then a new clv shows more details about him/her. For example the firstname, surname, tests points etc.
The data taken from a database in web.

The problem is when i double click the list item it fetches student information 2 times or more if i clicked fast enough.

The question is how i can prevent double or triple clicking on a list item before first click event run.

There are multiple solution.
You can use public variable and set it true in called sub, return from sub if found true (second click) , set it false after done.
Or disable the clv on click,
etc.

Another, simple, no-code solution: don't click twice :D

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Actually the op will never click twice, but his users will. I have faced this in nearly all my released products.
It looks like the users are hell bent to find errors. GOD Bless them.

I have already used first proposal like this

B4X:
Private Sub clvStudents_ItemClick (Index As Int, Value As Object)
 If lockCLV = True  Then
        Return
    End If
    lockCLV = True

without succes, and at the end of clvStudents_ItemClick i turn flag to False
Are u using other place to check flag?

Just add log and check,

B4X:
Private Sub clvStudents_ItemClick (Index As Int, Value As Object)

log("lockCLV " & lockCLV)

If lockCLV = True  Then
Return
End If
lockCLV = True

In both clicks flag is false.

Maybe because i am using resumable function to get my data the program continues and flag goes back to true at then end?

Here is a suggestion, without seeing some code, I can't be sure...

The problem is likely to be that you are resetting the lockClv to false without waiting for the resumable sub to complete

for example:
B4X:
lockClV = true
PerformResumeableSub
LockCLV = false

in the example, lockCLV will only be true for a *VERY* short space of time

if you write the code like this:

B4X:
lockCLV = true
wait for (performResumeablesub) complete
lockclv = false

then lockCLV will not get reset until the resumeablesub is complete

Everything is managed in the ItemClick event?
What about
B4X:
Private Sub clvStudents_ItemClick (Index As Int, Value As Object)
 clvStudents.AsView.Enabled = False
 
 ' Here do the Database read and other CLV compilation
 
 clvStudents.AsView.Enabled = True

Ok,
if the database read or other operations use resumeable subs you need to use wait for or the processing will continue at this level.

see this thread which may help explain:
and

I would move the work out to a sub so that you can wrap the whole lot in one wait for at the itemclick level.
