Get ListView children that are not in view

Question

For an App I am working on, I\'m trying to get the children of a ListView. To do this I have the following piece of code:

View listItem = mListView.getChildA         


        

Answer 1

You need method Adapter.getView():

final View view = mListView.getAdapter().getView(position, null, mListView);

UPDATE:

You need to create your method. Something like this:

public View getViewByPosition(int position, ListView listView) {
    final int firstListItemPosition = listView.getFirstVisiblePosition();
    final int lastListItemPosition = firstListItemPosition + listView.getChildCount() - 1;

    if (position < firstListItemPosition || position > lastListItemPosition ) {
        return listView.getAdapter().getView(position, null, listView);
    } else {
        final int childIndex = position - firstListItemPosition;
        return listView.getChildAt(childIndex);
    }
}

Answer 2

You can use this code

private static void initRecyclerBin(AbsListView view) {
        try {
            Field localField = AbsListView.class.getDeclaredField("mRecycler");
            localField.setAccessible(true);
            Object recyclerBin = localField.get(view);
            Class<?> clazz = Class.forName("android.widget.AbsListView$RecycleBin");
            Field scrapField = clazz.getDeclaredField("mScrapViews");
            scrapField.setAccessible(true);
            ArrayList<View>[] scrapViews;
            scrapViews = (ArrayList<View>[]) scrapField.get(recyclerBin);
            if (null != scrapViews) {
                int length = scrapViews.length;
                for (int i = 0, count = 0; i < length; i++) {
                    if (null != scrapViews[i] && !scrapViews[i].isEmpty()) {
                        for (int j = 0; j < scrapViews[i].size(); j++) {
                            scrapViews[i].get(j);//this is the scrapViews
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

and ListView getChildViews().
