tabactivity

I'm making some an advanced TabActivity but I need to get every TabView thats in the TabHost . With tabHost.getCurrentTabView() I can get the current TabView but is there a way to get a TabView by its ID? I managed to make a workaround by doing a for loop in the onCreate() method where I go to every tab and put all the View objects in an Array. private View[] tabs; for(int i = 0; i < getTabWidget().getTabCount(); i++) { tabHost.setCurrentTab(i); tabs[i] = tabHost.getCurrentTabView(); } There is no TabView in Android. To find the contents of a tab via its ID, call findViewById() on the TabHost

My TabActivity contains two tabs which calls two two different activities . I want to setResult() for the TabActivity when either one of the child finishes. Is there any method to find out when my activity inside tab finishes ? Thank you -Eby I found another way ` @Override public void finishFromChild(Activity child) { setResult(REFRESH); super.finishFromChild(child); } ` finsihFromChild will let us know when the child activity is finishing!! @pentium10 thank you very much for your suggestion.. Rohi Zacharia Ok i've got an even easier method to pass the result: in your child activity do this

I want to know when my TabActivity has inflated so i tried this code @Override protected void onFinishInflate() { super.onFinishInflate(); } i get the error: must override or implement a supertype method I cannot understand why that is not working in the TabActivity. Can Anyone explane this? package com.carlsberg.bungle.history; import com.carlsberg.bungle.Consts; import com.carlsberg.bungle.R; import android.app.TabActivity; import android.os.Bundle; import android.util.Log; import android.view.LayoutInflater; import android.view.View; import android.view.Window; import android.widget.TabHost

I've created a simple TabActivity which builds tabs at runtime reading some JSON data. At the moment I'm initializing an empty ListActivity with dummy random items for each tab just to see that changing from tab to tab works and the content doesn't disappear. The actual content for the tabs is stored in a singleton class, so when the tab activities get re-created due to a screen orientation change, they just pull the correct dummy items from the respective list according to an identifier contained in the intent's extras bundle. Everything works fine. I've put a log on the list activity

In their latest versions of their apps, Google has implemented a pretty cool way of swiping between tabs versus clicking tab headers. I was wondering if someone has more concrete ideas of how this is done. Here are some thoughts - feel free to critique: My initial thought is that this isn't a standard TabActivity which hosts child activities. Infact, I don't even think it's a custom ActivityGroup either. The row of tabs scrolls when swiped, but doesn't cause the active tab to switch. Swiping the main content of the tab exhibits interesting behavior. I suspect there is a GestureListener
