can we call startActivityForResult from adapter?How to get the response?

Question

is it possible to have method startActivtyForResult within an adapter?Then how to get the response? Where to execute the call back function?

Answer 1

I used a simpler method. create a public function in you activity/fragment which will call activity for result

public void startActivityFromAdapter(String Arguments){
    //todo: add steps you would like to compute
    startActivityForResult(Intent, REQ_CODE);
}

When creating the adapter, pass the current activity/fragment as an argument. I will use activity for example

public MyAdaper(Activity activity, ArrayList<String> list){
    this.activity = activity;
    this.list = list;
}

call the public function from viewholder by casting the activity to the Activity Class

 @Override
public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull ViewHolder holder, int position) {
    
    holder.applyBt.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            ((ActivityName) activity).startActivityFromAdapter(list.get(position).code);
        }
    });
}

and use onActivityResult in your calling activity/fragment

Answer 2

The androidX Activity implementation has a new set of APIs to get an activity result anywhere you wish.

This functionality replaces the old startActivityForResult() / onActivityResult() and onRequestPermissionsResult(), which have been deprecated in the ComponentActivity.

Example starting a second activity and expecting a result from it:

final Intent intent = new Intent(context, SecondActivity.class);
final ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult contract = new ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult();

activity.registerForActivityResult(contract, result ->
    YourClass.manageTheResult(result))
    .launch(intent);

Example requesting user permissions:

final String[] permissions = {Manifest.permission.CAMERA, Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO};

final ActivityResultContracts.RequestMultiplePermissions contract = new ActivityResultContracts.RequestMultiplePermissions();

activity.registerForActivityResult(contract, result -> {
    YourClass.manageTheResult(permissions, result);
}).launch(permissions);

Example managing a "sender intent":

final IntentSenderRequest request = new IntentSenderRequest.Builder(yourIntentSender)
    .build();

final ActivityResultContracts.StartIntentSenderForResult contract = new ActivityResultContracts.StartIntentSenderForResult();

activity.registerForActivityResult(contract, result ->
    YourClasss.manageTheResult(result))
    .launch(request);

Answer 3

Yes, it's possible. You need a reference for the Context in the adapter and call the activity:

Intent intent = new Intent(context, TargetActivity.class);
((Activity) context).startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_FOR_ACTIVITY_CODE);

Beware that context must be an activity context or this code will fail.

You get the result in the enclosing activity using onActivityResult as usual.

So, for example:

In your adapter:

MyAdapter(Context context) {
    mContext = context;
}

public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    …
    open.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            …
            Activity origin = (Activity)mContext;
            origin.startActivityForResult(new Intent(mContext, SecondActivity.class), requestCode);
        }   
    });
    …
}

public  void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    Log.d("MyAdapter", "onActivityResult");
}

In your second activity, do as usual with setResult and finish.

In your main activity, capture the result and pass to the adapter callback:

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    mAdapter.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}

Yes.You can call startactivityforresult() from adapter.

There are two case- 1.Calling adapter from activity and need onActivityResult in activity. 2.Calling adapter from Fragment and need onActivityResult in fragment.

Case 1:Get OnActivityResult in Activity then pass the reference of activity to adapter constructor

public MyAdapter(Activity pActivity, List<MyBean> pList) {
        mList = pList;
        mActivity = pActivity;       
    }

Now startActivityForResult

Intent intent = new Intent(context, TargetActivity.class);
mActivity.startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_FOR_ACTIVITY_CODE);

Case 2: Get OnActivityResult in Fragment then pass the reference of fragment to adapter constructor

 public MyGamesAdapter(Fragment pContext, List<MyBean> pList,) {
        mList = pList;
        mMyFragment =pContext;
    }

 Intent intent = new Intent(context, TargetActivity.class);
    mMyFragment.startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_FOR_ACTIVITY_CODE);

Now in activity or fragment override OnActivityResult and get result.

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    mAdapter.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}

Answer 5

write a functon in activity class like this

public void startCommentActivity(Intent i){
    startActivityForResult(i, 100);
}

call it in adapter class

mActivity.startCommentActivity(intent);
