How to force ViewPager to re-instantiate its items [duplicate]

Answer 1

Had the same problem. For me it worked to call

viewPage.setAdapter( adapter );

again which caused reinstantiating the pages again.

Answer 2

I have found a solution. It is just a workaround to my problem but currently the only solution.

ViewPager PagerAdapter not updating the View

public int getItemPosition(Object object) {
   return POSITION_NONE;
}

Does anyone know whether this is a bug or not?

Answer 3

public class DayFlipper extends ViewPager {

private Flipperadapter adapter;
public class FlipperAdapter extends PagerAdapter {

    @Override
    public int getCount() {
        return DayFlipper.DAY_HISTORY;
    }

    @Override
    public void startUpdate(View container) {
    }

    @Override
    public Object instantiateItem(View container, int position) {
        Log.d(TAG, "instantiateItem(): " + position);

        Date d = DateHelper.getBot();
        for (int i = 0; i < position; i++) {
            d = DateHelper.getTomorrow(d);
        }

        d = DateHelper.normalize(d);

        CubbiesView cv = new CubbiesView(mContext);
        cv.setLifeDate(d);
        ((ViewPager) container).addView(cv, 0);
        // add map
        cv.setCubbieMap(mMap);
        cv.initEntries(d);
adpter = FlipperAdapter.this;
        return cv;
    }

    @Override
    public void destroyItem(View container, int position, Object object) {
        ((ViewPager) container).removeView((CubbiesView) object);
    }

    @Override
    public void finishUpdate(View container) {

    }

    @Override
    public boolean isViewFromObject(View view, Object object) {
        return view == ((CubbiesView) object);
    }

    @Override
    public Parcelable saveState() {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public void restoreState(Parcelable state, ClassLoader loader) {

    }

}

    ...

    public void refresh() {
    adapter().notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}

try this.
