从XML文件填充ExpandableListView - Android

Question

在我的Android应用程序中，我有一个包含ExpandableListView的活动。

它将包含的项目应从应用程序在启动时向服务器查询的XML文件中提取（假定文件的大小不是问题）。

用户应该能够使用应用程序提供的功能添加，删除，编辑ExpandableListView中的项目，并对XML文件的内容进行修改。最终，应用程序会将修改的XML文件发送回服务器。

为了更好地理解这个样机应该解释我想实现：

我想知道：

how can I populate dynamically in Java the area highlighted in red given the XML file?

示例XML文件：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
<Category value="Animals"> 
    <entry>Cat</entry> 
    <entry>Dog</entry> 
    <entry>Elephant</entry> 
</Category> 
<Category value="Objects"> 
    <entry>Aeroplane</entry> 
    <entry>Ball</entry> 
    <entry>Closet</entry> 
</Category>

将DEBUG PART

我一直在努力，实现由@Luksprog答案提出了解决方案，但运行下面的代码时，我面临着一个java.lang.NullPointerException：

代码：

//gets the View from the Layout file 
myCustomExpandableListView = (ExpandableListView) findViewById(R.id.myCustomExpandableListView); 
//creates the array list that will contain all labels 
ArrayList<Category> labelsInTaxonomy = new ArrayList<Category>(); 
//fills it with a private method that parses the XML and fills the array list 
this.loadTaxonomyFromXml(labelsInTaxonomy); 
//creates the custom expandable list adapter 
CustomExpandable labelTaxonomyAdapter = new CustomExpandable(this, labelsInTaxonomy); 
//sets the adapter 
myCustomExpandableListView.setAdapter(labelTaxonomyAdapter); 

错误：

注意

com.DVA_HLUI.DVA_HLUIManageTaxonomyActivity.onCreate(DVA_HLUIManageTaxonomyActivity.java:80)

对应于该行的代码

myCustomExpandableListView.setAdapter(labelTaxonomyAdapter);

的是什么，我做错了任何想法的？

Answer 1

我会做一个自定义类这样的：

class Category { 

    private ArrayList<String> mEntries = new ArrayList<String>(); 
    private String mCaTegoryName; 

    public void addEntry(String entry) { 
     mEntries.add(entry); 
    } 

    public void setCategoryName(String categoryName) { 
     mCaTegoryName = categoryName; 
    } 

    public ArrayList<String> getEntries() { 
     return mEntries; 
    } 

    public String getCategoryName() { 
     return mCaTegoryName; 
    } 
} 

为数据结构，并使用ArrayList<Category>这将导致从一个自定义适配器解析XML：

class CustomExpandable extends BaseExpandableListAdapter { 

    private ArrayList<Category> mItems; 

    public CustomExpandable(Context context, ArrayList<Category> items) { 
     mItems = items; 
    } 

    @Override 
    public Object getChild(int groupPosition, int childPosition) { 
     return mItems.get(groupPosition).getEntries().get(childPosition); 
    } 

    @Override 
    public long getChildId(int groupPosition, int childPosition) { 
     return 0; 
    } 

    @Override 
    public View getChildView(int groupPosition, int childPosition, 
      boolean isLastChild, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { 
     // implement the child view row 
     return null; 
    } 

    @Override 
    public int getChildrenCount(int groupPosition) { 
     return mItems.get(groupPosition).getEntries().size(); 
    } 

    @Override 
    public Object getGroup(int groupPosition) { 
     return mItems.get(groupPosition).getCategoryName(); 
    } 

    @Override 
    public int getGroupCount() { 
     return mItems.size(); 
    } 

    @Override 
    public long getGroupId(int groupPosition) { 
     return 0; 
    } 

    @Override 
    public View getGroupView(int groupPosition, boolean isExpanded, 
      View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { 
     // implement the group View 
     return null; 
    } 

    @Override 
    public boolean hasStableIds() { 
     // TODO Auto-generated method stub 
     return false; 
    } 

    @Override 
    public boolean isChildSelectable(int groupPosition, int childPosition) { 
     // TODO Auto-generated method stub 
     return true; 
    } 

}
