Create a clickable image in a GridView in Android

Question

I have images displayed in a GridView as in this tutorial. I want to be able to click on a single image and do other events and I need to know what image was clicked.

Answer 1

i tried the above mentioned method getView(final int position . . .) realized that the position got "reset" after 28 items and the position when back to 0 after the 28th item in the gridview.

i suspected the final keyword is creating problem and after removing it i was able to get the positions as expected.

Below is a sample code with the click event being called in the activity that is showcasing the gridview.

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

ArrayList item_ids = new ArrayList();

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    item_ids = //get your item ids method

    GridView gridview = (GridView) findViewById(R.id.grid_featured);
    gridview.setAdapter(new ImageAdapter(this));
    gridview.setOnItemClickListener(itemClickListener);

    footer = (Footer)findViewById(R.id.layoutFooter);
    footer.setActivity(this);
}

private OnItemClickListener itemClickListener = new OnItemClickListener() {
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View v, int position, long id) {
    Log.d(TAG,"Position Clicked ["+position+"] with item id ["+item_ids.get(position)+"]");
    }
};

}
