StaggeredGridView Example

IntroductionThe StaggeredGridView allows the user to create a GridView with uneven rows similar to how Pinterest looks. Includes own OnItemClickListener and OnItemLongClickListener, selector, and fixed position restore.Setup

To use StaggeredGridView in your projects, simply add this project to your workspace then add it as a library project to your current project.
Usage
Attributes supported (same behavior as GridView): 
  • numColumns : determines the amount of columns to be drawn
  • drawSelectorOnTop : determine if selector should be drawn on top
 <LinearLayoutxmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
 
 xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
   
 xmlns:staggered="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

 android:layout_width="match_parent"

 android:layout_height="match_parent"

 android:id="@+id/mainLayout">


 <com.origamilabs.library.views.StaggeredGridView>
 
 android:id="@+id/staggeredGridView1"
 
 staggered:numColumns="2"
staggered:drawSelectorOnTop="true"

 android:layout_width="match_parent"
 
 android:layout_height="wrap_content">

 < /LinearLayout&gt


The StaggeredGridView includes its own interface's OnItemClickListener, and OnItemLongClickListener since StaggeredGridView does not extend an AdapterView. Behavior is the same.

onItemClick(StaggeredGridView parent, View view, int position, long id);
onItemLongClick(StaggeredGridView parent, View view, int position, long id);
Tests
TODO:
  • implement more custom attributes to mirror GridView's attributes
  • develop tests
  • hideSelector()
  • support multiple choice mode
  • currently restoring position can result in the views to be slightly offset when user flings to the top. This is corrected by checking the offsets when position 0 is reached. Would like to dig deeper into the issue. 
The above code is for library and to set that library for demo of StaggeredGriviewDemo.

StaggeredGridView can be added as a custom view to any layout.

No tests have been written however I have tested this View manually with 2.2.2+ devices. Please report any issues.

View Flow for Android

Image
In a project I’m currently working on we had the need of scrolling through a bunch of views in a horizontal fashion. I wanted the ViewGroup to be backed up with an Adapter, pretty much like the ListView does it. In my case, the items were to be populated from an online data source. I did find a few different takes on a view switcher but none of them were backed with an Adapter. So I decided to base my work on one of them, but instead extend the AdapterView class in the Android SDK (instead of simply the ViewGroup ). If you’ve implemented a ListView you’ve probably already come across the Adapter concept. An Adapter in Android is more or less a collection of elements of some sort. The Adapter is capable of providing views for each of the elements when asked to. A Listview does, of course, not load a View for each of the elements in the Adapter at once. That would be completly irresponsible as it would eat up the memory in no-time. Instead it loads the view for each element ...

Threading in Android

Image
A Thread is a sequence of instructions executed in order. Although each CPU can proc- ess only one instruction at a time, most operating systems are capable of handling multiple threads on multiple CPUs, or interleaving them on a single CPU. Different threads need different priorities, so the operating system determines how much time to give each one if they have to share a CPU. The Android operating system is based on Linux and as such is fully capable of running multiple threads at the same time. However, you need to be aware of how applications use threads in order to design your application properly. Single Thread By default, an Android application runs on a single thread. Single-threaded applications run all commands serially, meaning the next command is not completed until the pre- vious one is done. Another way of saying this is that each call is blocking . This single thread is also known as the UI thread because it's the thread that processes all the use...
