java.lang.StackOverflowError: stack size 8MB while Enabling/Disabling TextView#setTextIsSelectable in ListView Adapter

Question

I have an activity with ListView . Displaying the TextView in each list item. Switching the properties of selected position using these methods E

Answer 1

i was calling onBackPressed() recursively and that caused StackOverFlowError for me.

Answer 2

To much of iteration on list scroll will produce this error.. Avoid that...

Answer 3

Finally I got the solution for my problem. I removed ViewHolder pattern in MyAdapter like

private static class MyAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
    private static final String TAG = "HistoryAdapter";
    private final LayoutInflater inflater;
    private int mSelectedPosition = -1;
    private String[] mItems;

    public MyAdapter(Context context, String[] mItems) {
        this.mItems = mItems;
        inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
    }



    public void setSelectedPosition(int mSelectedPosition) {
        this.mSelectedPosition = mSelectedPosition;
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.selectable_text_layout, null, false);
        TextView selectableTV = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.selectableTextView);

        selectableTV.setText(getItem(position));

        if (position == mSelectedPosition) {
            Log.d(TAG, "getView() called with: " + "position = [" + position + "], selected = " + true);
            selectableTV.setTextIsSelectable(true);
            selectableTV.setSingleLine(false);
            selectableTV.setEllipsize(null);
        } else {
            Log.d(TAG, "getView() called with: " + "position = [" + position + "], selected = " + false);
            selectableTV.setTextIsSelectable(false);
            selectableTV.setSingleLine(true);
            selectableTV.setEllipsize(TextUtils.TruncateAt.END);
        }

        return convertView;
    }


    @Override
    public String getItem(int position) {
        return mItems[position];
    }

    @Override
    public long getItemId(int position) {
        return 0;
    }

    @Override
    public int getCount() {
        return mItems.length;
    }
}

But still didn't find the the reason for the problem when using ViewHolder pattern.If anybody find the reason let me know.

Answer 4

The best way to find the error is use a lot of logcat in your code and find where the logcat is not showing. But you can try to change your code like this:

1. delete the inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context); in MyAdapter constructor

2. move it in getview method like this:

   if (convertView == null) {
       LayoutInflater inflater = ((Activity) context).getLayoutInflater();
       convertView=inflater.inflate(R.layout.selectable_text_layout, null,false);</br>
       viewHolder = new ViewHolder(convertView);
       convertView.setTag(viewHolder);
   }
