How can I update the total price shown for each item right away in the listView once I delete one of the items?

Question

I have a listView which displays clothing items in my shopping cart from my existing database and at the bottom it shows you the total price of all the items in my cart. When I delete items from my cart, the listView does get updated, it removes the item, but the total price that displays at the bottom does not get updated when I delete this item and this total price just comes from a query that does SUM(Price) from my table which contains my items in my cart. I've posted my some of my code below and if anyone can help, that would be great.

Answer 1

In my opinion, the fastest way is:

1. create: OnItemDeletedListener.java

OnItemDeletedListener.java

public interface OnItemDeletedListener {
    public void onItemDeleted();
}

2. in your CartItemsAdapter add following code:

    private OnItemDeletedListener onItemDeletedListener; public void setOnItemDeletedListener(Object object) { onItemDeletedListener = (OnItemDeletedListener) object; } 

3. In function getView(...) replace setOnClickListener with this:

    deleteFromCartButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View arg0) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub // To get the item from the listView for which the Add to Cart button is pressed Item item = getItem(position); // Delete the item from the cart by pressing the delete item button DatabaseHelper db = new DatabaseHelper(getContext()); db.deleteItemFromCart(item.getID()); remove(item); // Update the listView to reflect the changes notifyDataSetChanged(); onItemDeletedListener.onItemDeleted(); } 

4. Change shoppingCart class:

shoppingCart.java

package ankitkaushal.app.healthysizing;

import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ListAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.TextView;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;

 public class shoppingCart extends ActionBarActivity implements OnItemDeletedListener {

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

        final DatabaseHelper dbhelper;
        final ListView listView;
        final ListAdapter cartAdapter;

        dbhelper = new DatabaseHelper(getApplicationContext());
        try {
            dbhelper.createDataBase();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.itemsInCartList);
        ArrayList<Item> cartList = dbhelper.getItemsInCart();

        if (cartList != null) {
            cartAdapter = new CartItemsAdapter(getApplicationContext(), cartList);
            cartAdapter.setOnItemDeletedListener(this);
            listView.setAdapter(cartAdapter);
        }

        listView.setEmptyView(findViewById(R.id.emptyCartMessage));

        displayTotalPrice();
    }

    private void displayTotalPrice() {

        TextView displayTotalPrice = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.totalCartPrice);
        String totalCartPrice = dbhelper.getTotalCartPrice();

        if (totalCartPrice != null) {
            displayTotalPrice.setText("Total Price: $" + totalCartPrice);
        }

        else {
            displayTotalPrice.setText("Total Price: $0.00");
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onItemDeleted() {
        displayTotalPrice();
    }
}

[EDIT]

Replace final ListAdapter cartAdapter; with final CartItemsAdapter cartAdapter;

Answer 2

It seems like you don't notify displayTotalPrice when you click the delete button (if this is the TextView that you want to update when you delete an item from your cart). Your activity should listen to the changes made in your CartItemsAdapter.

Add this inner interface to your CartItemsAdapter.

public static interface ItemDeleteListener {
    public void onItemDelete(double price);
}

Then make a reference to this interface inside of your CartItemsAdapter:

ItemDeleteListener itemDeleteListener;

This variable should be initialized when you're creating new CartItemsAdapter (pass it as an argument):

// 'this' in this case is your Activity passed into Adapter as an argument
cartAdapter = new CartItemsAdapter(getApplicationContext(), cartList, this);

In your CartItemsAdapter constructor then initialize that interface:

this.itemDeleteListener = listener;

Then let your shopping cart Activity implement this interface:

public class shoppingCart extends ActionBarActivity implements CartItemsAdapter.ItemDeleteListener {
    ...
    @Override
    public void onItemDelete(doublePrice) {

        // here you notify displayTotalPrice, doublePrice should be total price
        displayTotalPrice.setText(doublePrice);

        }
}

When change happens, invoke it in your CartItemsAdapter like this:

itemDeleteListener.onItemDelete(db.getTotalCartPrice());
