How to use Spinner onItemSelected?

Question

EDIT: Rooms draws its ArrayList from the database. when I use static ArrayList, I do not have this problem, but I do not have this problem in ArrayList, which I pulled from the database. I'm pulling the elements, but when I click it appears to be null.

I have a spinner. I added items to this spinner. But AdapterView.Onitemselectedlistener process can not do, the function does not work. The data I choose is unreadable. How can I read the data I chose in spinner? This version of the code does not work, the selected data does not appear. Where is the problem?

Answer 1

Try this one :

  @Override
                public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int i, long l) {
                    if (Rooms.get(i).equals("Room 1"){
    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "asdasdadsa", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                       // break;
                    } else if (Rooms.get(i).equals("Room 2") {
 Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "asdasdadsa", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

Answer 2

Your code was a little confusing. You used spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(listener); in spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new ...) , and spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(MainActivity.this); was used to set listener, too.

When I use your code, the "Selected" toast shows once I open MainActivity. Then the OnItemSelectedListener of spinner was instead by your listener variable.

Or maybe your problem is you forgot setContentView ?

So try this code:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

private Spinner spinner;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinnerMain);

    List<String> Rooms = new ArrayList<>();
    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
        Rooms.add("room" + i);
    }
    ArrayAdapter<String> adapterSpinner = new ArrayAdapter<String>(MainActivity.this,
            android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, Rooms);
    adapterSpinner.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    spinner.setAdapter(adapterSpinner);

    final AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener listener = new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
        @Override
        public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int i, long l) {
            switch (i) {
                case 0:
                    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "select 0", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    break;
                case 1:
                    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "select 1", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    break;
                default:
                    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "select others", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    break;

            }

        }

        @Override
        public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> adapterView) {

        }
    };
    spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(listener);
}
}

or:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    private Spinner spinner;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinnerMain);

        List<String> Rooms = new ArrayList<>();
        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
            Rooms.add("room" + i);
        }
        ArrayAdapter<String> adapterSpinner = new ArrayAdapter<String>(MainActivity.this,
                android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, Rooms);
        adapterSpinner.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
        spinner.setAdapter(adapterSpinner);

        spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int i, long l) {
                switch (i) {
                    case 0:
                        Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "select 0", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        break;
                    case 1:
                        Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "select 1", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        break;
                    default:
                        Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "select others", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        break;

                }
            }

            @Override
            public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> adapterView) {

            }
        });
    }
}

or:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener {

    private Spinner spinner;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinnerMain);

        List<String> Rooms = new ArrayList<>();
        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
            Rooms.add("room" + i);
        }
        ArrayAdapter<String> adapterSpinner = new ArrayAdapter<String>(MainActivity.this,
                android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, Rooms);
        adapterSpinner.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
        spinner.setAdapter(adapterSpinner);

        spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int i, long l) {
        switch (i) {
            case 0:
                Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "select 0", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                break;
            case 1:
                Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "select 1", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                break;
            default:
                Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "select others", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                break;

        }
    }

    @Override
