Replacing JSON Populated TextView with JSON Populated ListView [duplicate]

Answer 1

You need to add a list view in your layout and populate it using an ArrayAdapter. Here's a tutorial that shows you how - http://www.vogella.com/articles/AndroidListView/article.html#arrayAdapter

Answer 2

Continuing my answer from your previous question @ JSON String is incorrectly mapped to textviews

First you need a listview in your layout xml

<ListView
 android:id="@+id/list"
 android:layout_width="wrap_content"
 android:layout_height="wrap_content"
 />

Declare list as a instance variable

 ArrayList<CommentsLibrary> list = new ArrayList<CommentsLibrary>();

Then

 for (int i = 0; i < jsonArray.length(); i++) {
 JSONObject jsonObject = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);
 String name = jsonObject.optString("name","defaultValue");
 String content = jsonObject.optString("content","defaultValue");
 String published = jsonObject.optString("published","defaultValue");
 list.add(new CommentsLibrary(name, content, published));
 }

Then initialize listview

ListView lv =(ListView)findViewById(R.id.list);
CustomAdapter cus = new CustomAdapter(ActivityName.this,list);
lv.setAdapter(cus);

Define a custom layout with 3 textviews. (list_item.xml)

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_marginLeft="18dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="31dp"
        android:text="TextView" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView2"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:text="TextView" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView3"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/textView2"
        android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/textView2"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:layout_marginRight="24dp"
        android:text="TextView" />

</RelativeLayout>

Then define a custom adapter by extending a base adapter. Override getView inflate the custom layout and set text views there.

public class CustomAdapter extends BaseAdapter
{
    LayoutInfalter mInflater; 
    ArrayList<CommentsLibrary> list;  
    public CustomAdapter(Context context,ArrayList<CommentsLibrary> list)
    {
     mInflater = LayoutInfalter.from(context);
     this.list = list;  
    } 
    @Override
public int getCount() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    return list.size();
}

@Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    return position;
}

@Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    return position;
}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    ViewHolder holder;
    if(convertView==null)
    {
        convertView =minflater.inflate(R.layout.list_item, parent,false);
        holder = new ViewHolder();
        holder.tv1 = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.textView1);
        holder.tv2 = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.textView2);
        holder.tv3 = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.textView3); 
        convertView.setTag(holder);
    }
    else
    {
        holder= (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
    }
    holder.tv1.setText(list.get(position).getName());
            holder.tv2.setText(list.get(position).getContent());
            holder.tv3.setText(list.get(position).getPublished());
    return convertView;
}
static class ViewHolder
{
    TextView tv1,tv2,tv3

}
}
