I'm currently building an app for Android which retrieves data from Firebase. It displays children from other children . Either it fails to build when I remove the cast or the app crashes with the cast. Here is the error:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{app.name/app.name.retrieve}: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.ListView cannot be cast to java.util.List
This is my code:
package app.name;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import com.google.firebase.database.ChildEventListener;
import com.google.firebase.database.DataSnapshot;
import com.google.firebase.database.DatabaseError;
import com.google.firebase.database.DatabaseReference;
import com.google.firebase.database.FirebaseDatabase;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class datab extends AppCompatActivity {
private ArrayList<String> child = new ArrayList<>();
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
@Override
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
setContentView(R.layout.activity_datab);
DatabaseReference database = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("child");
final ListView view = findViewById(R.id.l);
final ArrayAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapter(this, android.R.layout.list_content, (List) view);
//Here is the cast
view.setAdapter(child);
database.addChildEventListener(new ChildEventListener() {
@Override
public void onChildAdded(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, String s) {
String value = dataSnapshot.getValue(String.class);
adapter.add(value);
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
@Override
public void onChildChanged(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, String s) {
}
@Override
public void onChildRemoved(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
}
@Override
public void onChildMoved(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot, String s) {
}
@Override
public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
}
});
}
}
How can I remove the cast without the build failing?
Change this:
final ArrayAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapter(this, android.R.layout.list_content, (List) view);
to this:
final ArrayAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapter(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, child);
view.setAdapter(adapter);
Change this inside your onChildAdded(..){
:
adapter.add(value);
to this:
child.add(value);
add()
is a method in the ArrayList.
Check this for more info: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/ArrayList.html
you can't cast ListView
to List
, ArrayAdapter constructor takes Context
instance and resourceId
and List
or array
you should pass the list to your adapter , and set the adapter to the listview
final ArrayAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapter(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1 , child);
view.setAdapter(adapter)
