Dispatch a key event to the next view on the focus path. This path runs from the top of the view tree down to the currently focused view. If this view has focus, it will dispatch to itself. Otherwise it will dispatch the next node down the focus path. This method also fires any key listeners.

Parameters
event The key event to be dispatched.
Returns
  • True if the event was handled, false otherwise.

public ListAdapter getAdapter ()

Added in API level 1

Added in API level 7

Indicates whether this View is opaque. An opaque View guarantees that it will draw all the pixels overlapping its bounds using a fully opaque color. Subclasses of View should override this method whenever possible to indicate whether an instance is opaque. Opaque Views are treated in a special way by the View hierarchy, possibly allowing it to perform optimizations during invalidate/draw passes.

Returns
  • True if this View is guaranteed to be fully opaque, false otherwise.

public void onInitializeAccessibilityEvent (AccessibilityEvent event)

Added in API level 14

Initializes an AccessibilityEvent with information about this View which is the event source. In other words, the source of an accessibility event is the view whose state change triggered firing the event.

Example: Setting the password property of an event in addition to properties set by the super implementation:

 public void onInitializeAccessibilityEvent(AccessibilityEvent event) {
     super.onInitializeAccessibilityEvent(event);
     event.setPassword(true);
 }

If an View.AccessibilityDelegate has been specified via calling setAccessibilityDelegate(AccessibilityDelegate) its onInitializeAccessibilityEvent(View, AccessibilityEvent) is responsible for handling this call.

Note: Always call the super implementation before adding information to the event, in case the default implementation has basic information to add.

Parameters
event The event to initialize.

public void onInitializeAccessibilityNodeInfo (AccessibilityNodeInfo info)

Added in API level 14

Initializes an AccessibilityNodeInfo with information about this view. The base implementation sets:

Subclasses should override this method, call the super implementation, and set additional attributes.

If an View.AccessibilityDelegate has been specified via calling setAccessibilityDelegate(AccessibilityDelegate) its onInitializeAccessibilityNodeInfo(View, AccessibilityNodeInfo) is responsible for handling this call.

Parameters
info The instance to initialize.

public void onInitializeAccessibilityNodeInfoForItem (View view, int position, AccessibilityNodeInfo info)

public boolean requestChildRectangleOnScreen (View child, Rect rect, boolean immediate)

Added in API level 1

Called when a child of this group wants a particular rectangle to be positioned onto the screen. ViewGroups overriding this can trust that:

  • child will be a direct child of this group
  • rectangle will be in the child's coordinates

ViewGroups overriding this should uphold the contract:

  • nothing will change if the rectangle is already visible
  • the view port will be scrolled only just enough to make the rectangle visible
Parameters

immediate True to forbid animated or delayed scrolling, false otherwise
Returns
  • Whether the group scrolled to handle the operation

public void setAdapter (ListAdapter adapter)

Added in API level 1

Protected Methods

protected boolean canAnimate ()

Added in API level 1

Indicates whether the view group has the ability to animate its children after the first layout.

Returns
  • true if the children can be animated, false otherwise

protected void dispatchDraw (Canvas canvas)

Added in API level 1

Called by draw to draw the child views. This may be overridden by derived classes to gain control just before its children are drawn (but after its own view has been drawn).

Parameters
canvas the canvas on which to draw the view

protected boolean drawChild (Canvas canvas, View child, long drawingTime)

Added in API level 1

Draw one child of this View Group. This method is responsible for getting the canvas in the right state. This includes clipping, translating so that the child's scrolled origin is at 0, 0, and applying any animation transformations.

Parameters
canvas The canvas on which to draw the child
child Who to draw
drawingTime The time at which draw is occurring
Returns
  • True if an invalidate() was issued

protected View findViewTraversal (int id)

Added in API level 1

Parameters
id the id of the view to be found
Returns
  • the view of the specified id, null if cannot be found

protected View findViewWithTagTraversal (Object tag)

Added in API level 1

Parameters
tag the tag of the view to be found
Returns
  • the view of specified tag, null if cannot be found

protected void layoutChildren ()

Added in API level 1

Subclasses must override this method to layout their children.

protected void onFinishInflate ()

Added in API level 1

Finalize inflating a view from XML. This is called as the last phase of inflation, after all child views have been added.

Even if the subclass overrides onFinishInflate, they should always be sure to call the super method, so that we get called.

protected void onFocusChanged (boolean gainFocus, int direction, Rect previouslyFocusedRect)

Added in API level 1

Called by the view system when the focus state of this view changes. When the focus change event is caused by directional navigation, direction and previouslyFocusedRect provide insight into where the focus is coming from. When overriding, be sure to call up through to the super class so that the standard focus handling will occur.

Parameters
gainFocus True if the View has focus; false otherwise.
direction The direction focus has moved when requestFocus() is called to give this view focus. Values are FOCUS_UP, FOCUS_DOWN, FOCUS_LEFT, FOCUS_RIGHT, FOCUS_FORWARD, or FOCUS_BACKWARD. It may not always apply, in which case use the default.
previouslyFocusedRect The rectangle, in this view's coordinate system, of the previously focused view. If applicable, this will be passed in as finer grained information about where the focus is coming from (in addition to direction). Will be null otherwise.

protected void onMeasure (int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec)

Added in API level 1

Measure the view and its content to determine the measured width and the measured height. This method is invoked by measure(int, int) and should be overriden by subclasses to provide accurate and efficient measurement of their contents.

CONTRACT: When overriding this method, you must call setMeasuredDimension(int, int) to store the measured width and height of this view. Failure to do so will trigger an IllegalStateException, thrown by measure(int, int). Calling the superclass' onMeasure(int, int) is a valid use.

The base class implementation of measure defaults to the background size, unless a larger size is allowed by the MeasureSpec. Subclasses should override onMeasure(int, int) to provide better measurements of their content.

If this method is overridden, it is the subclass's responsibility to make sure the measured height and width are at least the view's minimum height and width (getSuggestedMinimumHeight() and getSuggestedMinimumWidth()).

Parameters
widthMeasureSpec horizontal space requirements as imposed by the parent. The requirements are encoded with View.MeasureSpec.
heightMeasureSpec vertical space requirements as imposed by the parent. The requirements are encoded with View.MeasureSpec.

protected void onSizeChanged (int w, int h, int oldw, int oldh)

Added in API level 1

This is called during layout when the size of this view has changed. If you were just added to the view hierarchy, you're called with the old values of 0.

Parameters
w Current width of this view.
h Current height of this view.
oldw Old width of this view.
oldh Old height of this view.
