Android Example UltimateListView Example

Informatix said:

I tried the example, and it is very cool indeed, but it would be simpler by using sections. So I modified it to add sections. I also added the application icon in the items and I changed the jump code to place the first item of the section at the top.

Uh nice, i'm working on releasing an update on my very first app, and i'm using the ULV library, i had a hard time learning how to use it at the beginning but thanks to Informatix for his help, I think i finally can say i feel very comfortable using it.
here's a screen shot of what my app looks like with the ULV library.

sorry about the small image,

Walter

This problem should be fixed with this new code.
Instead of storing all icons in a map, I save them to a cache:

B4X:

pMap.IconID = ConvertNameToID(packagename)
Dim Drawable As BitmapDrawable = PM.GetApplicationIcon(packagename)
ULV.FeedDiskCacheWithBitmap(Drawable.Bitmap, pMap.IconID, False)

And I read my icon with LoadImageAsync (I don't set a location because the icon is supposed to be found in the disk cache):

B4X:

ULV.LoadImageAsync(IV, "", PMap.IconID, Gravity.FILL)

I added a function in this example, ConvertNameToID, which will probably be useful in all cases where you want to convert a string to an unique identifier. With very long strings, there's a (very small) risk of collision so you should use it mainly for file names, people names, etc.
