And how to set Onclicklistener on ListView.
I'm using custom ArrayAdapter<food>.
I am new to android and this is my first app so any help would be great .
Thank you in advance .
Let's say you have 2 activities, ListActivity which looks like in your posted picture, and DetailActivity that shows the recipe detail and how to cook it. Then you can do it like this:
Add OnItemClickListener to your listview.
Make sure you chose the information to you want to send to the DetailActivity so it will know which recipe is clicked (eg: the recipe ID).
Inside the OnItemClicked method, create an Intent object, then put the information to that intent via Intent.putExtra() method.
Inside the OnCreate method in DetailActivity, retrieve the intent extra data, and validate it do determine what to show based on the clicked recipe.

I am building an E-Commerce App and I have an activity showing image slider, description and related items, and in image slider I have put an arrow to change the product on the arrow click I want to be in the same activity but data should be different.How should I do that need your help guys.
You should try doing it by urself in one of the many ways its possible to. Then we could provide some help with your idea or show you better solution. I think you are looking for RecyclerView (https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/layout/recyclerview). It lets you show some similar views but with different data inside. Also as an item inside RecyclerView you can try CardView.
Using only RecyclerView you can also use:

You can also search for a library that has everything you want inside already implemented. For example the first library that came out after i typed it in google : https://github.com/Ramotion/cardslider-android.
I am working on a restaurant automation application in android studios. In my MenuActivity where orders are placed, I would like to create buttons each time an order is placed in a different activity called ChefActivity. The idea is that when the Place Order button is clicked in the MenuActivity, a button will appear in the ChefActivity so the chef can click that button to view the order. Is there a way to dynamically create a button in one activity to then display in another activity? I have done much research on this and have no been able to find much helpful information. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
You should to use Preferences or SQLlite to store information, and when you switch activities just read from them, it's looks like, you click on button in 1st activity, write it to database, and then when you start 2nd activity, just read from database and place data to button.
I want to make a recipes app, the basic layout is the same for all the recipes the only thing that changes are the images, times and ingredients.
The problem is, I could make 40 activities, one for each recipe and performance wouldn't be a problem because the user is only interacting with one activity at the time. However, writing the same code and going on a copy paste spree feels wrong.
I would have to repeat the same code over 40 activities and it would work (I guess), but it would be much easier to create one activity with the functionalities I want like a timer and the layout and in some way make smaller files that insert the data for the selected recipe in that "pre-made template".
There's must be a way of doing it, although I'm not experienced enough
Here is an example layout
It is usually good practice to have a base activity that implements all the code common to several activities then those activities can simply inherit from the base activity like this public class ChildActivity extends BaseActivity.
This will allow you to call methods that are in the BaseActivity from any of the child activities. You can have a read up on Java Inheritance here and here is a blog post with some examples of using a base activity.
You can create only one activity that will receive the Receipt data as extra using Intent. The layout for this activity should contain an image view(or a recycler view to hold all your images), a recyclerview to show your steps/ingredients and a textview for the time.
Receiving these data from the activity(that one that the user selected which receipt he wants too check) that created this new activity, all you need to do is to setup your layout with this data.

I have a ViewPager with 2 tabs. Each tab just holds a Fragment with a RecyclerView. The RecyclerView in the first tab holds a list of all Articles while the RecyclerView in the second tab only holds the list of user's favorite Articles. Each Article in the first tab has a button in the RecyclerView row that allows the user to favorite it. I want new favorites to be displayed automatically (without forcing the user to manually press the refresh button) when the user navigates to the second tab. How can I go about doing this? Essentially I need to add / remove items from the RecyclerView which contains the favorites, but from the first fragment.
Things I have tried
Call adapter.notifyDataSetChanged() in the onRefresh() method of the favorites fragment. This works, but the performance hit is big because notifyDataSetChanged() is not a cheap operation. I would like to avoid this if possible.
Tried following this guide, and implemented some interfaces. The problem is, when I try to reference the adapter in my fragment from the containing activity, the adapter is always null. I can post code if needed to show what I was doing if this is supposed to be possible.
Now I am considering using SQLite DB to store changes (favorite removals/additions) in the onClickListeners, and then checking that table in the onResume() method and processing the changes individually, one by one with notifyItemChanged()
Is there a better way to do this?
For SQlite use CursorLoader to load data from SQlite. You can register to be notified when a data changed in a table. Then your loader will automatically load data again. Check this answer. Also check this Thread.
For getting data from internet you can use
Communicate with 2 fragments via parent Activity. Check this and this answer. This tutorial is good for better understanding.
LocalBroadcastManager to notify from one fragment to another fragment.
I am working on my hobby project to learn more about android programming and stuffs. So i recently ran into a simple problem but couldn't find a solution for it.
My project for now have 2 activity [MainActivity], [CommentActivity].
In MainActivity, I have a listadapter (cusAdapter) will fetch all the content from a database and display it on a listview. Everything works fine there. It will fetch all the comments and total comments for a certain post based on the post id. In the same MainActivity, i have a comment button and a onclick listener which when clicked will bring user to the next activity [CommentActivity] and load all the comments and data needed using another custom adapter. I also have a total comment TextView that will show the total comment fetched by the json and display it in my listview.
When a user posted a comment on CommentActivity, it will save into the database via AsyncTask.
Now the problem is, when i press back button and navigate back from CommentActivity to MainActivity, i use intent with flag (intent.flag_activity_reorder_to_front). So it will never reload the MainActivity again when back button is pressed. Also it will never update the total comment in the MainActivity. What i want to do is when back button is pressed on CommentActivity, i want it to refresh/reload the ListAdapter in MainActivity to fetch the latest data from database.
Also i don't want to reload the whole MainActivity, i just wanna update the view without reloading the whole activity.
I believe there must be some easy way to do this. I can post codes if you guys need it to assists me.
Thank you.
Yes, there is an easy way.
Start your sencond activity using:
startActivityForResult(intent, RESULT_CODE)
use setResult(RESULT_OK) in your second activity after doing the commit of the changes to the database
override onActivityResult() in your first activity to check when the second activity returns properly
update the first adapter as needed.
Hope it helps.
In your MainActivity you could check in onResume to see if the data has changed, as this will be called when you go back to it from the CommentActivity.
If the data has changed, calling notifyDataSetChanged() on the adapter will reload the view with the new data
