Call Activity method from adapter

by

Yes you can.

In the adapter Add a new Field :

private Context mContext;

In the adapter Constructor add the following code : 

public AdapterName(......, Context context) {
  //your code.
  this.mContext = context;
}

In the getView(…) of Adapter: 

Button btn = (Button) convertView.findViewById(yourButtonId);
btn.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
  @Override
  public void onClick(View v) {
    if (mContext instanceof YourActivityName) {
      ((YourActivityName)mContext).yourDesiredMethod();
    }
  }
});

replace with your own class names where you see your code, your activity etc.

If you need to use this same adapter for more than one activity then :

Create an Interface

public interface IMethodCaller {
    void yourDesiredMethod();
}

Implement this interface in activities you require to have this method calling functionality.

Then in Adapter getView(), call like: 

Button btn = (Button) convertView.findViewById(yourButtonId);
btn.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        if (mContext instanceof IMethodCaller) {
            ((IMethodCaller) mContext).yourDesiredMethod();
        }
    }
});

You are done. If you need to use this adapter for activities which does not require this calling mechanism, the code will not execute (If check fails).
