TextView items depending on Spinner value [Android]

Question

I wanna create TextView list depending on chosen value from Spinner in Android. Here's the essential code with a problem:

Spinner spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner1);
spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() {
    @Override
    public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parentView, View selectedItemView, int position, long id) {

    for(int i = 0; i < 50; i++)
    {
        TextView pMember = new TextView(this);
        pMember.setText("asd");
    }
}

The error is:

The constructor TextView(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener(){}) is undefined

I've tried parentView.this instead this reference, but it also didn't work out. I have programming ADT almost for a week, so I haven't got much experience. Have you got any ideas how to resolve my issue? Thanks.

Answer 1

You are trying to pass an AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener as param in your constructor because you do that inside your listener.

Try:

TextView pMember = new TextView(YourActivity.this);

Instead of:

TextView pMember = new TextView(this);

Answer 2

Initialize your textview outside the onItemSelectedMethod as following:

Spinner spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner1);
TextView pMember = new TextView(this);

spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() { @Override public void onItemSelected(AdapterView parentView, View selectedItemView, int position, long id) {

for(int i = 0; i < 50; i++)
{
    pMember.setText("asd");
}
});
