I need to create several UI controls in an android application at runtime.
In order to not freeze the UI while creating controls (and to show a "Loading..." box), I want to use a worker thread like this:
private class LoadControls extends AsyncTask<TdcItem, Integer, Integer> {
private ProgressDialog dialog;
@Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
dialog = new ProgressDialog(FormActivity.this);
dialog.setMessage(getString(R.string.loading_message));
dialog.setIndeterminate(true);
dialog.setCancelable(false);
dialog.show();
}
protected Integer doInBackground(TdcItem... items) {
ScrollView accordion = (ScrollView) findViewById(R.id.accordion);
int count = items.length;
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
Button header = new Button(FormActivity.this);
header.setText(items[i].getName());
if (isCancelled()) break;
}
return count;
}
protected void onPostExecute(Integer result) {
dialog.dismiss();
}
}
This code in part of the Activity which will response to button clicks.
The problem is that compiler says that I cannot create a button in a worker thread. How can I do it?
it seems to be a UI stuff you want to do so it should be done on UI thread... otherwise you ll have to create a
new Handler()
create a new Runnable and call the postOnUiThread() method of the handler is not very...usefull i guess
