How to show CardViews (with different content types) in RecyclerView

I'm trying to show an additional CardView that contains a different layout but have got lost with my code. I'm also unsure of how to to show the array of strings within a GridView for the CardView itself. Does anyone know where I may have gone wrong & what can be done so that the following can be achieved?:
Place the CardView containing the GridView wherever I want within the RecyclerView.
Show the array of strings in a GridView within a CardView
What I want to add to the RecyclerView (above the Item A CardView)

Ok so I made a quick example of how to do it. This is how the Activity class I'm posting looks like, all items are in the same RecyclerView:
Bear in mind, it might not look like your code because I am trying to use (At least for me) best practices, and also shorten the amount of code and classes by containing a lot of things in the same class.
Here is the Activity:
public class RecyclerActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
RecyclerView recycler;
ArrayList<String> data;
RecyclerView.Adapter<ViewHolder> adapter;
private static final int ITEM_TYPE = 100;
private static final int HEADER_TYPE = 101;
private static final int HEADER_TYPE_2 = 102;
private static final int GRID_TYPE = 103;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_recycler);
// find recycler,
recycler = findViewById(R.id.recycler);
// set the layout
recycler.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this, LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL, false));
// init data,
data = new ArrayList<>();
data.add("Item A");
data.add("Item B");
data.add("Item C");
// create the adapter
adapter = createAdapter();
// set the adapter
recycler.setAdapter(adapter);
}
// creates the adapter,
private RecyclerView.Adapter<ViewHolder> createAdapter() {
return new RecyclerView.Adapter<ViewHolder>() {
#NonNull
#Override
public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(#NonNull ViewGroup parent, int type) {
switch (type) {
case HEADER_TYPE:
// inflate the layout,
ViewHolder holderHeader1 = new ViewHolder(inflateHelper(R.layout.header, parent));
// set an on click to the view here to create only one object,
holderHeader1.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
// do something
}
});
return holderHeader1;
case HEADER_TYPE_2:
// inflate the layout,
ViewHolder holderHeader2 = new ViewHolder(inflateHelper(R.layout.header, parent));
// set an on click to the view here to create only one object,
holderHeader2.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
// do something
}
});
return holderHeader2;
case ITEM_TYPE:
// inflate the layout,
ViewHolder holderItem = new ViewHolder(inflateHelper(R.layout.item, parent));
// set an on click to the view here to create only one object,
holderItem.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
// do something
}
});
return holderItem;
case GRID_TYPE:
// inflate the layout,
ViewHolder holderGrid = new ViewHolder(inflateHelper(R.layout.grid, parent));
// set an on click to the view here to create only one object,
holderGrid.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
// do something
}
});
return holderGrid;
default:
// inflate the layout,
ViewHolder holderItemDefault = new ViewHolder(inflateHelper(R.layout.item, parent));
// set an on click to the view here to create only one object,
holderItemDefault.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
// do something
}
});
return holderItemDefault;
}
}
/**
* Keep the viewholder simple and the all the view finding here. This way you
* only have one viewholder.
*/
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(#NonNull ViewHolder viewHolder, int position) {
// go through the positions
switch (getItemViewType(position)) {
case HEADER_TYPE:
Button expandButton = viewHolder.itemView.findViewById(R.id.button);
expandButton.setText("Expand");
break;
case HEADER_TYPE_2:
Button collapseButton = viewHolder.itemView.findViewById(R.id.button);
collapseButton.setText("Collapse");
break;
case ITEM_TYPE:
// get the current item
String item = data.get(position - 3);
TextView title = viewHolder.itemView.findViewById(R.id.title);
title.setText(item);
break;
case GRID_TYPE:
break;
}
}
#Override
public int getItemCount() {
return data.size() + 3;
}
#Override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
switch (position) {
case 0:
return HEADER_TYPE;
case 1:
return HEADER_TYPE_2;
case 2:
return GRID_TYPE;
default: return ITEM_TYPE;
}
}
};
}
private View inflateHelper(int resId, ViewGroup parent) {
return LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(resId, parent, false);
}
// inner class for viewholder to use,
class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
public ViewHolder(#NonNull View itemView) {
super(itemView);
}
}
}
You might notice that I have used one ViewHolder. This is a pattern I believe we should adopt because it simplifies code so much more. You can find the views you need in the onBind method and thus get away with using one for all types of views.
Also I add the on click listener in the onCreateViewHolder because it is much more efficient to set it there, and it allows for the viewholder to not be onClick specific.
As I said, you can use as many types as you want, you just need to check for it, and set it at the right position.
Here are the layout files if you are interested:

How to remove item from ListView and sharedpreferences android studio?

i want to be able to do this to the code i have already I am new to programing please help.
- Add an icon the user can click (per item) to remove it
- When clicked that item on the list should be removed
-The item should be removed from storage as well (so it doesn't appear next time they load up the app)
here is my code:
MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private static final String Log_TAG = "ToDoApp";
private ToDoListManager listManager;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ListView todoList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.todo_list);
listManager = new ToDoListManager(getApplicationContext());
ToDoItemAdapter adapter = new ToDoItemAdapter(
this,
listManager.getList()
);
ImageButton addButton = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.add_item);
addButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
onAddButtonClick();
}
});
}
#Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
listManager.saveList();
}
private void onAddButtonClick() {
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

}

android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:text="#string/lblBtnDel" />

Step1: Create activity_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"

<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/lvTodo"

</RelativeLayout>
<Button
android:id="#+id/btnDel"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Delete" />
</LinearLayout>
Step2: Create to todo_item.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center"

android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="1">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tvTodoName"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Learn Android"
android:textSize="20sp" />
<CheckBox
android:id="#+id/cbChooseTodo"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
Step3: Define Object Todo
public class ToDoItem {
private String description;
private boolean isComplete;
public ToDoItem(String description, boolean isComplete) {
this.description = description;
this.isComplete = isComplete;
}
public String getDescription() {
return description;
}
public void setDescription(String description) {
this.description = description;
}
public boolean isComplete() {
return isComplete;
}
public void setComplete(boolean complete) {
isComplete = complete;
}
}
Step4: Create TodoItemAdapter class
public class TodoItemAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<ToDoItem> {
private ArrayList<ToDoItem> arrayListTodo;
private LayoutInflater layoutInflater;
public TodoItemAdapter(Context context, int resource, ArrayList<ToDoItem> objects) {
super(context, resource, objects);
this.arrayListTodo = objects;
this.layoutInflater = (LayoutInflater)context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
ViewHolder holder;
if (convertView == null){
holder = new ViewHolder();
convertView = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.todo_item, parent,false);
holder.tvTodoName = (TextView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.tvTodoName);
holder.cbTodoChoose = (CheckBox)convertView.findViewById(R.id.cbChooseTodo);
convertView.setTag(holder);
}else {
holder = (ViewHolder)convertView.getTag();
}
final ToDoItem toDoItem = arrayListTodo.get(position);
holder.tvTodoName.setText(toDoItem.getDescription());
holder.cbTodoChoose.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
toDoItem.setComplete(isChecked);
}
});
holder.cbTodoChoose.setChecked(toDoItem.isComplete());
return convertView;
}
public static class ViewHolder{
public TextView tvTodoName;
public CheckBox cbTodoChoose;
}
}
Step5: Process on the MainActivity class
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements View.OnClickListener{
private ListView lvTodoItem;
private ArrayList<ToDoItem> toDoItems;
private TodoItemAdapter todoItemAdapter;
private Button btnDel;
private Button btnAdd;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
initData();
}
private void initData(){
toDoItems = new ArrayList<>();
todoItemAdapter = new TodoItemAdapter(MainActivity.this, R.layout.todo_item, toDoItems);
lvTodoItem = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.lvTodo);
lvTodoItem.setAdapter(todoItemAdapter);
btnAdd = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnAdd);
btnDel = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnDel);
btnAdd.setOnClickListener(this);
btnDel.setOnClickListener(this);
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
switch (v.getId()){
case R.id.btnAdd:
addTodoItem();
break;
case R.id.btnDel:
deleteTodoItem();
break;
}
}
private void addTodoItem() {
}
private void deleteTodoItem() {
for (int i= toDoItems.size()-1; i>=0 ; i--){
ToDoItem toDoItem = toDoItems.get(i);
if (toDoItem.isComplete()){
toDoItems.remove(i);
}
}
todoItemAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
It is working fine. Thanks.

Spinner spinner = (Spinner) _linearLayout.getChildAt(0);
String selection = (String) spinner.getSelectedItem();
Log.e("spinner device", selection);
}
}
}
});
And i have
FATAL EXCEPTION: main java.lang.NullPointerException
in line Spinner spinner = (Spinner) _linearLayout.getChildAt(0);
i try write
Spinner spinner = (Spinner) _linearLayout.getChildAt(0);
Spinner spinner = (Spinner) _linearLayout.getChildAt(1);
Spinner spinner = (Spinner) _linearLayout.getChildAt(2);
Spinner spinner = (Spinner) _linearLayout.getChildAt(3);
its error

Why don't you use findViewById() for the spinner?
Spinner spinner =(Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinnerL);
String value = spinner.getSelectedItem().toString();

I dont know it bad code or not, i try write like this and its work!!!
for(int j = 0; j < listView.getChildCount(); j++ ) {
View _mainView = listView.getChildAt(j);
LinearLayout _linearLayout = (LinearLayout) _mainView.findViewById(R.id.spinnerL);
try{
Spinner spinner = (Spinner) _linearLayout.getChildAt(0);
String selection = (String) spinner.getSelectedItem();
Log.e("spinner device", selection);
}catch(Exception e){
}
}

Display of ListView include in an other ListView

I have a problem and I can't solve it. I would like to create poll application. I Create 2 classes :
- Poll which contain user's name, the question and an ArrayList of Choice
- Choice contain the choice and its id.
I would like to display on the home page a list of questions (ArrayList) with the differents choices. I managed to display this list but I have a problem with ArrayList of the class Poll because only the first item is display but I want to display all the list of choice.
POLL CLASS
public class Poll{
String question;
String forename;
ArrayList<Choice> list_choices;
public String getQuestion() {
return question;
}
public void setQuestion(String question) {
this.question = question;
}
public String getForename() {
return forename;
}
public void setForename(String forename) {
this.forename = forename;
}
public ArrayList<Choice> getListChoice() {
return list_choices;
}
public void setListChoice(ArrayList<Choice> list_choices) {
this.list_choices = list_choices;
}
}
CHOICE CLASS
public class Choice {
int id;
String choice;
public int getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getChoice() {
return choice;
}
public void setChoice(String choice) {
this.choice = choice;
}
}
Adapter for Poll
public class CustomListAdapter extends BaseAdapter{
ArrayList<Poll> listPolls;
LayoutInflater layoutInflater;
Context context;

Man, the one and origin solution is:
Set your parent ListView item WRAP_CONTENT height. Next, set fixed height of your included ListView item. Then in getView() method set the height of your included ListView the height equals to parent_array_list.size() * child_list_view_item_height. It might be help you.
Code example:
LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, (int) (listPolls.size() * TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, child_list_view_item_height, displayMetrics)));
holder.ChoiceView.setLayoutParams(params);

UnsupportedOperationException in creating custom ListView in Android

i wanted to have a custom listView so I did this:
Created an Activity:
public class PRS_MainList_Act extends ListActivity {
MainListAdapter mladp;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_prs__main_list_);
ArrayList<MainMenuItem> menuItems = new ArrayList<MainMenuItem>();
menuItems.add(new MainMenuItem(getResources().getString(R.string.main_list_connectivity), getResources().getString(R.string.main_list_connectivityDesc)));
this.mladp = new MainListAdapter(this, R.layout.man_list_item, R.id.textView1, menuItems);
setListAdapter(mladp);
}
}
Create a class for menu items:
public class MainMenuItem {
private String itemText;
private String itemDescription;
private String itemIMG;
private int itemWeight;
private String itemAssociatedActivity;
public MainMenuItem(String itemText, String itemDescription) {
this.itemText = itemText;
this.itemDescription = itemDescription;
}
public String getItemText() {
return itemText;
}
public void setItemText(String itemText) {
this.itemText = itemText;
}
public String getItemIMG() {
return itemIMG;
}
public void setItemIMG(String itemIMG) {
this.itemIMG = itemIMG;
}
public int getItemWeight() {
return itemWeight;
}
public void setItemWeight(int itemWeight) {
this.itemWeight = itemWeight;
}
public String getItemAssociatedActivity() {
return itemAssociatedActivity;
}
public void setItemAssociatedActivity(String itemAssociatedActivity) {
this.itemAssociatedActivity = itemAssociatedActivity;
}
public String getItemDescription() {
return itemDescription;
}
public void setItemDescription(String itemDescription) {
this.itemDescription = itemDescription;
}
}
Custom array adapter:
public class MainListAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<MainMenuItem> {
ArrayList<MainMenuItem> menuItems;
public MainListAdapter(Context context, int resource,
int textViewResourceId, ArrayList<MainMenuItem> menuItems) {
super(context, resource, textViewResourceId, menuItems);
this.menuItems = menuItems;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
View view = convertView;
if (convertView == null) {
LayoutInflater vi = (LayoutInflater) getContext().getSystemService(
Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
view = vi.inflate(R.layout.man_list_item, parent);
}
MainMenuItem it = menuItems.get(position);
if (it != null) {
TextView titleTV = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.textView1);
TextView descriptionTV = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.textView2);
ImageView iconIV = (ImageView)view.findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
if (titleTV != null) {
titleTV.setText(it.getItemText());
}
if(descriptionTV != null){
descriptionTV.setText(it.getItemDescription());
}
if(iconIV != null){
if(it.getItemText().equals(getContext().getResources().getString(R.string.main_list_connectivity)))
iconIV.setImageResource(R.drawable.network_connections);
}
}
return view;
}
}
and here are my activity layout and item layout:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".PRS_MainList_Act" >
<ListView android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
Item Layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:text="Medium Text"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:text="TextView" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
I got this error saying: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: addView(View, LayoutParams) is not supported in AdapterView
Thanks in advance for your help.

You can't use this version of the inflate method:
view = vi.inflate(R.layout.man_list_item, parent);
because this will add the inflated View to the parent, which isn't allowed in a ListView. Instead use this version:
view = vi.inflate(R.layout.man_list_item, parent, false);
which will inflate the view but will not add it to the parent. This version is important because it will provide the proper LayoutParams for your inflated view.
