Can you have a GridView and a ListView in one XML/Activity?
I'm trying to load both and its giving me a Null Pointer exception,
but doesn't tell me why pretty much
What i'm trying to do is have a top level menu (GridView) and List of
Menu Options below (ListView).
Here is an example code:
public class NewsReaderMainActivity extends Activity {
GridView topLevelList;
ListView newsCategoryList;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
String[] newsSourceArray = getResources().getStringArray(
R.array.newssource);
setContentView(R.layout.newsreadermain);
newsCategoryList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.categoryList);
topLevelList = (GridView) this.findViewById(R.id.topMenuList);
ArrayAdapter<String> newsSource = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
R.layout.newsgridtypeitem, newsSourceArray);
topLevelList.setAdapter(newsSource);
String[] newsCategoryArray = getResources().getStringArray(
R.array.newspapers);
ArrayAdapter<String> newsCategory = new
ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
R.layout.newslistcategoryitem,
newsCategoryArray);
newsCategoryList.setAdapter(newsCategory);
}
}
