自定义TextView字体不适用于从java android设置文本

Question

I have created a Custom TextView to use Font Awesome support, its working fine when you add the text (unicode  ) in layout xml. But if am trying to set the text from my Adapter dynamically using view.setText() , its not applying the font.

FontView class

public class FontView extends TextView {
    private static final String TAG = FontView.class.getSimpleName();
    //Cache the font load status to improve performance
    private static Typeface font;

    public FontView(Context context) {
        super(context);
        setFont(context);
    }

    public FontView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
        setFont(context);
    }

    public FontView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
        setFont(context);
    }

    private void setFont(Context context) {
        // prevent exception in Android Studio / ADT interface builder
        if (this.isInEditMode()) {
            return;
        }

        //Check for font is already loaded
        if(font == null) {
            try {
                font = Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(), "fontawesome-webfont.ttf");
                Log.d(TAG, "Font awesome loaded");
            } catch (RuntimeException e) {
                Log.e(TAG, "Font awesome not loaded");
            }
        }

        //Finally set the font
        setTypeface(font);
    }
}

XML for Layout

 <com.domain.app.FontView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:textSize="60sp"
    android:textAlignment="center"
    android:text="&#xf179;"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:id="@+id/iconView"
    android:background="@drawable/oval"
    android:padding="10dp"
    android:layout_margin="10dp" />

My Adapter

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    View v = convertView;
    IconListHolder viewHolder;

    if( convertView == null ) {
        LayoutInflater layoutInflater = (LayoutInflater) mContext.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        v = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.icon, null);
        viewHolder = new IconListHolder(v);
        v.setTag(viewHolder);
    } else {
        viewHolder = (IconListHolder) v.getTag();
    }

    //Set the text and Icon
    viewHolder.textViewIcon.setText(pages.get(position).getIcon());

    viewHolder.textViewName.setText(pages.get(position).getTitle());

    return v;
}

private class IconListHolder {
    public FontView textViewIcon;
    public TextView textViewName;

    public IconListHolder(View base) {
        textViewIcon = (FontView) base.findViewById(R.id.iconView);
        textViewName = (TextView) base.findViewById(R.id.iconTextView);
    }
}

Please help whats am doing wrong.

Answer 1

After struggling more than 3 hrs. I have found the answer here. It was unicode issue.

Changing Adapter setText() to use Html.fromHtml("").toString() fixed the issue

viewHolder.textViewIcon
   .setText(Html.fromHtml(pages.get(position).getIcon()).toString());

I hope you guys find it useful.

Could not find an error of your code.

This the custom textView which I'm using. Create font folder inside your assets folder

CustomText.java

import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Typeface;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class CustomText extends TextView {

public CustomText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
    super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    init(attrs);
}

public CustomText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
    init(attrs);

}

public CustomText(Context context) {
    super(context);
    init(null);
}

private void init(AttributeSet attrs) {
    if (attrs!=null) {

        {
             Typeface myTypeface = Typeface.createFromAsset(getContext().getAssets(),"fonts/custom_font.ttf");
             setTypeface(myTypeface);
         }

    }
}

}
