从Parse下载图像和文本并添加到ArrayList会产生意想不到的结果吗？

Question

I've been working on an app that downloads thumbnails and text from Parse and adds it to ArrayLists which are then displayed through a custom adapter for a ListView. The issue here is, the thumbnails for the required content is sometimes misplaced. For example: In my profile, instead of my pic another pic downloaded from parse would be placed. How to fix it ?

MainActivity.java ( Downloads the content )

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

 if (isParseInitialized == false) {

        Parse.initialize(new Parse.Configuration.Builder(this)
                        .applicationId("AppId")
                .clientKey("ClientKey")
                .server("https://parseapi.back4app.com")

                .build()
        );

        isParseInitialized = true;

    }

    catchVideos();

    progressBar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.progressBar);

    context = this;
    listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView);

    customAdapter = new CustomAdapter(MainActivity.this, titles, thumbnails, channel);

    //progressBar.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);

    final Handler handler = new Handler();
    Runnable run = new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {

            handler.postDelayed(this, 1000);

            if (tapped == true) {

                ParseQuery<ParseObject> query = new ParseQuery<ParseObject>("Content");
                query.whereEqualTo("Title", title);
                query.findInBackground(new FindCallback<ParseObject>() {
                    @Override
                    public void done(List<ParseObject> objects, ParseException e) {
                        if(e == null) {

                            for (ParseObject object : objects) {

                               Log.i("Info", object.getString("url"));

                                Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(object.getString("url")));
                                startActivity(intent);
                            }
                        }
                    }
                });

                tapped = false;

            }
        }
    };

    handler.post(run);



}

public void catchVideos(){

    ParseQuery<ParseObject> query = new ParseQuery<ParseObject>("Content");
    query.whereNotEqualTo("Status", null);

You're adding each image to a list once it is downloaded. Later, you're iterating over the images in order. However, the order that they appear in the list won't necessarily be the same as the order you requested them. They're being loaded asynchronously, meaning that the code doesn't wait for the image to finish loading before moving on to the next one. If you start loading a large image and then start loading a small image immediately afterwards, the small one might finish downloading first. In the resulting list, the small image would appear before the larger one, even though it was requested second.

To fix the order of the list of images, you could use Futures . Instead of declaring thumbnails as a List<Bitmap> , make it a List<Future<Bitmap>> . Then, add all three items to the list at the same time.

    titles.add(object.getString("Title"));
    channel.add(object.getString("Channel"));
    CompletableFuture<Bitmap> futureThumbnail = new CompletableFuture<>();
    thumbnails.add(futureThumbnail);

That guarantees all three lists will be in the same order, regardless of how long the images take to download.

The next step is to fill in each future with the corresponding image.

    ParseFile file = (ParseFile) object.get("Thumbnail");
    file.getDataInBackground(new GetDataCallback() {
        @Override
        public void done(byte[] data, ParseException e) {
            if (e == null) {
                Bitmap thumbnail = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(data, 0, data.length);
                future.complete(thumbnail);
                ...

This method has the added benefit that you can wait for the images to finish downloading. To wait for all the images to download and put them in a list in the right order:

List<Bitmap> thumbnails = new ArrayList<>();
for (Future<Bitmap> future : futureThumbnails) {
    thumbnails.add(future.get());
}

Or, if you prefer not to wait:

List<Bitmap> thumbnails = new ArrayList<>();
Bitmap defaultValue = null; // or preferably some other default value
for (Future<Bitmap> future : futureThumbnails) {
    thumbnails.add(future.isDone() ? future.get() : defaultValue); 
}
