First of all..I am not very sure how serious this can be because you are trying to use view pager as an list view item. It’s not that it cannot be accomplished but it’s just that there’s too many layers going on here. Hope you will appreciate the work and the efforts put into this piece of code and I hope that this will help solve you issue..So please enjoy the code..:)
1) There are 2 adapter in this case.
First for ListView
Second for ViewPager
2) Both adapters have different functions and list items.
3) You use one adapter in the other adapter.
4) Then you use the final adapter to inflate your ListView and set the adapter…:D
Here’s how the code goes: I will be doing it step by step
Step 1: Making a simple model class:
public class ModelClass {
private String titleToDisplay;
public ModelClass(String question) {
super();
this.titleToDisplay = question;
}
public String getTitleToDisplay() {
return titleToDisplay;
}
public void setTitleToDisplay(String titleToDisplay) {
this.titleToDisplay = titleToDisplay;
}
}
Step 2: Making a view pager Adapter and inflating it will the model class items. This is basic view pager adapter!!
public class ViewPagerAdapter extends PagerAdapter {
ArrayList<ModelClass> arrayModelClasses = new ArrayList<ModelClass>();
@SuppressLint("NewApi")
@Override
public void finishUpdate(ViewGroup container) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.finishUpdate(container);
}
public ViewPagerAdapter() {
super();
}
public ViewPagerAdapter(ArrayList<ModelClass> arrayModelClasses) {
super();
this.arrayModelClasses = arrayModelClasses;
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
return arrayModelClasses.size();
}
@Override
public boolean isViewFromObject(View collection, Object object) {
return collection == ((View) object);
}
@Override
public Object instantiateItem(View collection, int position) {
// Inflating layout
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) collection.getContext()
.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.drawer_list_item, null);
TextView itemText = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.title);
try {
itemText.setText(arrayModelClasses.get(position)
.getTitleToDisplay());
} catch (Exception e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
}
((ViewPager) collection).addView(view, 0);
return view;
}
@Override
public void destroyItem(View container, int position, Object object) {
((ViewPager) container).removeView((View) object);
}
}
Step 3: Making the adapter for the ListView
NOTE: This is where I am using the previous adapter and in this adapter I am using the view pager as the list item.
public class ListViewPagerAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<ModelClass> {
ViewPagerAdapter mViewPagerAdapter;
private Context context;
private ArrayList<ModelClass> navigationItems;
private int selectedIndex;
public ListViewPagerAdapter(Context context,
ArrayList<ModelClass> navigationItems) {
super(context, R.layout.view_pager_list_view, navigationItems);
this.context = context;
this.navigationItems = navigationItems;
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
return navigationItems.size();
}
public void setSelectedIndex(int position) {
selectedIndex = position;
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
@Override
public ModelClass getItem(int position) {
return navigationItems.get(position);
}
@Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
@SuppressLint("NewApi")
@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
if (convertView == null) {
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context
.getSystemService(Activity.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.view_pager_list_view, null);
}
ViewPager vp = (ViewPager) convertView.findViewById(R.id.list_pager);
if (selectedIndex != -1 && position == selectedIndex) {
vp.setBackground(getContext().getResources().getDrawable(
R.drawable.gradient_selected));
} else {
vp.setBackground(getContext().getResources().getDrawable(
R.drawable.gradient));
}
mViewPagerAdapter = new ViewPagerAdapter(navigationItems);
vp.setAdapter(mViewPagerAdapter);
return convertView;
}
}
Step 4: I am setting this last adapter(“ListViewPagerAdapter “) to my listview.
NOTE: Here I am using this adapter in one of my fragments. You can use this simply on your normal Activity Class and it will work too.
public class CampaignView extends Fragment {
ListViewPagerAdapter listViewPagerAdapter;
public CampaignView() {
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View campainview = inflater.inflate(R.layout.campaignview, container,
false);
return campainview;
}
@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
String[] s = { "a", "b", "c", "d", "b", "c", "d", "b", "c", "d", "b",
"c", "d", "b", "c", "d", "b", "c", "d" };
ArrayList<ModelClass> aList = new ArrayList<ModelClass>();
for (String s1 : s) {
aList.add(new ModelClass(s1));
}
ListView lv1 = (ListView) getActivity().findViewById(
R.id.campaignListView);
// lv1.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(getActivity(),
// android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,aList));
listViewPagerAdapter = new ListViewPagerAdapter(getActivity(), aList);
lv1.setAdapter(listViewPagerAdapter);
}
}
Lastly, there are few layouts snippets for this code.
First: The listview itself:
<ListView
android:id="@+id/campaignListView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
</ListView>
Second: The ViagerLayoutItem(row items):
<?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="vertical" >
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="@+id/list_pager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="400dp"
android:paddingTop="10dp"/>
</LinearLayout>
Lastly: The drawer list items for the listview items:
<?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="40dp"
android:background="#303030"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#303030"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/icon"
android:layout_width="25dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="12dp"
android:layout_marginRight="12dp"
android:contentDescription="Icon"
android:src="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24107433/@drawable/ic_launcher" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/title"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:background="@android:color/darker_gray"
android:minHeight="18dp"
android:padding="20dp"
android:paddingRight="40dp"
android:text="home"
android:textColor="#33b5e5"
android:textSize="20sp"
android:textStyle="bold" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Do let me know if there’s any kind of doubts with this code. I will be happy to answer.
Hope you enjoyed it and I wish u all the best to implement this.. I spent few mins on this piece of code.. Hope this helps everyone.. Good Luck .. 🙂
