Android – ListView slide left/right like Samsung contact ListView

From another post, there was a link to this Google Code : https://gist.github.com/2980593
Which come from this Google+ post : https://plus.google.com/u/0/113735310430199015092/posts/Fgo1p5uWZLu .
This is a Swipe-To-Dismiss functionality.

From this you can provide your own Swipe-To-Action code. So here is my version, were I can personalize the left and right action and you can triggered the Dismiss animation (this is just a modification of Roman Nuric’s code).

You have to include this class in your project :

public class SwipeListViewTouchListener implements View.OnTouchListener {
    // Cached ViewConfiguration and system-wide constant values
    private int mSlop;
    private int mMinFlingVelocity;
    private int mMaxFlingVelocity;
    private long mAnimationTime;

    // Fixed properties
    private ListView mListView;
    private OnSwipeCallback mCallback;
    private int mViewWidth = 1; // 1 and not 0 to prevent dividing by zero
    private boolean dismissLeft = true;
    private boolean dismissRight = true;

    // Transient properties
    private List < PendingSwipeData > mPendingSwipes = new ArrayList < PendingSwipeData > ();
    private int mDismissAnimationRefCount = 0;
    private float mDownX;
    private boolean mSwiping;
    private VelocityTracker mVelocityTracker;
    private int mDownPosition;
    private View mDownView;
    private boolean mPaused;

    /**
     * The callback interface used by {@link SwipeListViewTouchListener} to inform its client
     * about a successful swipe of one or more list item positions.
     */
    public interface OnSwipeCallback {
        /**
         * Called when the user has swiped the list item to the left.
         *
         * @param listView               The originating {@link ListView}.
         * @param reverseSortedPositions An array of positions to dismiss, sorted in descending
         *                               order for convenience.
         */
        void onSwipeLeft(ListView listView, int[] reverseSortedPositions);

        void onSwipeRight(ListView listView, int[] reverseSortedPositions);
    }

    /**

     *
     * @param listView The list view whose items should be dismissable.
     * @param callback The callback to trigger when the user has indicated that she would like to

}

From there, you can add the following code to your onCreate in the Activity with the ListView :

// Create a ListView-specific touch listener. ListViews are given special treatment because
// by default they handle touches for their list items... i.e. they're in charge of drawing
// the pressed state (the list selector), handling list item clicks, etc.
SwipeListViewTouchListener touchListener =
    new SwipeListViewTouchListener(
        listView,
        new SwipeListViewTouchListener.OnSwipeCallback() {
            @Override
            public void onSwipeLeft(ListView listView, int [] reverseSortedPositions) {
                //  Log.i(this.getClass().getName(), "swipe left : pos="+reverseSortedPositions[0]);
                // TODO : YOUR CODE HERE FOR LEFT ACTION
            }

            @Override
            public void onSwipeRight(ListView listView, int [] reverseSortedPositions) {
                //  Log.i(ProfileMenuActivity.class.getClass().getName(), "swipe right : pos="+reverseSortedPositions[0]);
                // TODO : YOUR CODE HERE FOR RIGHT ACTION
            }
        },
        true, // example : left action = dismiss
        false); // example : right action without dismiss animation
listView.setOnTouchListener(touchListener);
// Setting this scroll listener is required to ensure that during ListView scrolling,
// we don't look for swipes.
listView.setOnScrollListener(touchListener.makeScrollListener());

Edit:
To add a color modification while swiping, your code must be in the case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE close to the mDownView.setAlpha.
