No, and I'm not sure, respectively. First, in terms of "need", I'm not saying you need to do anything. You said you wanted a UI like the one screen in Android Market, and I indicated how I would build it. It may be there is a way to achieve your desired result from your current base. Second, I don't know what you mean by "'pre-list' content views" with respect to my description. If you mean fixed items, like the logo pane or the Open/Install pane in the Android Market screen, those are not in the adapter because they are not in the scrolling list. If, on the other hand, you're referring to various bits of things in the scrolling area (e.g., My Rating versus user comments versus other entries in the Android Market screen list), then yes, they would be returned as rows by the adapter. For example, Jeff Sharkey wrote up a post shortly before he was enGoogled, demonstrating creating a ListView that looks like a UI for SharedPreferences: http://jsharkey.org/blog/2008/08/18/separating-lists-with-headers-in-android-09/ His code probably still works, though it was for Android 0.9 and so your kilometerage may vary. I have my own spin on his example, up to date for Android 1.5, which you can download as part of the source code from: http://commonsware.com/AdvAndroid/ Both his and mine are focused on things that are mostly data, culled from multiple adapters, with headings. I'd approach the Android Market scenario a bit differently, but using the same underlying tools (e.g., getViewTypeCount(), isEnabled()). Note to self: the Android Market scenario would be a nice example for a future book revision... ;-) -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books.html --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
