Listener for ViewFlipper widget flipping events

Question

I have a ViewFlipper implementation that needs to be improved. This ViewFlipper has three child views. Basically, I want an indicator on which child view is currently active

Answer 1

I know this question already has an answer. But here's an alternative which is a method ViewFlipper inherited from ViewGroup and which seems to be the best from my experience.

Code Snippets Below:

ViewFlipper viewFlipper = findViewById (R.id.myViewFlipperId);
viewFlipper.setOnHierarchyChangeListener(ViewGroup.OnHierarchyChangeListener);

The onChildViewAdded(View, View) method in the callback listener will be invoked whenever a child view is added to the ViewGroup. Which you can use to detect whenever the ViewFlipper flips.

See ViewGroup.html#setOnHierarchyChangeListener API Docs
