android listview 列宽,android - Layout_width of a ListView - Stack Overflow

Ok so I encountered an issue with the attribut layout_width of a listView.

In my project I had a background image for my listview that didn't fit the width of the screen. So I set the layout_width on wrap_content, and I centered horizontally the listView.

It seems that this was a bad idea, because in the adapter the GetView method was called more than 3 times the number of cell displayed. If I set the layout_width on fill_parent the problem is resolved. I created a simple project that shows the problem.

Here is the xml of the activity :

android:layout_width="fill_parent"

android:layout_height="fill_parent"

>

android:id="@android:id/list"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="fill_parent"

/>

The item_list xml :

android:layout_width="fill_parent"

android:layout_height="fill_parent"

android:padding="10dp"

android:textSize="16sp" >

And finally the Activity :

package fr.example.android.listviewbug;

import android.app.ListActivity;

import android.content.Context;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.util.Log;

import android.view.View;

import android.view.ViewGroup;

import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;

public class ExampleListViewBugActivity extends ListActivity{

public static int cpt;

public static final String[] COUNTRIES = new String[] {

"Afghanistan", "Albania", "Algeria", "American Samoa", "Andorra",

"Angola", "Anguilla", "Antarctica", "Antigua and Barbuda", "Argentina",

"Armenia", "Aruba", "Australia", "Austria", "Azerbaijan",

"Bahrain", "Bangladesh", "Barbados", "Belarus", "Belgium",

"Belize", "Benin", "Bermuda", "Bhutan", "Bolivia",

"Bosnia and Herzegovina", "Botswana", "Bouvet Island", "Brazil", "British Indian Ocean Territory",

"British Virgin Islands", "Brunei", "Bulgaria", "Burkina Faso", "Burundi",

"Cote d'Ivoire", "Cambodia", "Cameroon", "Canada", "Cape Verde",

"Cayman Islands", "Central African Republic", "Chad", "Chile"};

@Override

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.main);

cpt = 0;

setListAdapter(new CustomArrayAdapter(this, R.layout.list_item, COUNTRIES));

}

@Override

public void onDestroy() {

super.onDestroy();

Log.d("AdapterTest", "onDestroy()");

}

private class CustomArrayAdapter extends ArrayAdapter{

public CustomArrayAdapter(Context context, int textViewResourceId, String[] countries) {

super(context, textViewResourceId, countries);

}

@Override

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

Log.d("AdapterTest", " cpt:"+ ++cpt);

return super.getView(position, convertView, parent);

}

}

}

So my solution is to simply set the layout_width on fill_parent, and modify the image of the listview background to add some transparent borders to fit the screen size.

But I'd like to know why this issue appears with wrap_content on a listview, and why it's not in the doc if it's a known problem...
