Hi guys, I had the following scenario: -I'm using a list view in multiple choice mode to enable a user to delete several items he/she has checked, at once. -When the user clicks the delete button, i do the following; *get positions of checked items using: myList.getCheckedItemPositions (); *Get the items in this position and put them to a list - toDeleteList. **(QUESTION BASED ON THIS STEP) use myList.setItemChecked(position, false) to uncheck the list item. *Remove the items in the "toDeleteList"
Now, i was "forced" to manually uncheck the list item because of this - if for example i delete the 1st item (a) of list [a, b, c, d], b will be checked after the delete ie. for list [b, c, d] - b will appear checked. Question is why? Because the SparseBooleanArray returned by myList.getCheckedItemPositions(); is the same before and after deleting from the list. I thought (i could be wrong) that after removing an item from the list via the adapter - the CheckedItemPositions array should also change to reflect the new state of the list eg. - for mylist = [a, b, c, d] - items at position 0 and 3 checked (a &d) - the checked item positions (mylist.getCheckedItemPositions()) array has values true for positions 0 and 3 - If i remove a & d from the list, therefore, mylist = [b,c], mylist.getCheckedItemPositions() is the same as above - doesn't change - positions 0 and 3 are checked. *I was expecting it not to be checked for positions 0 & 3 because the items at these positions are no longer in the list. So, i'm i getting something wrong here (or having the wrong expectations :) ) ? someone please clarify this..
