I'm creating a Widget
with ListView
on it. Displaying the result from the Web Service
in the ListView
is okay. I created a class which is my WidgetService
that extends to RemoteViewsService
and on RemoteViewsFactory
I call my ListViewProvider
that has the Web Service
. I added a refresh button that when clicked it will call the WidgetService
again to created the list view.
Here is my code in my WidgetProvider
public class WidgetProvider extends AppWidgetProvider {
@Override
public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager,
int[] appWidgetIds) {
final int N = appWidgetIds.length;
for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) {
RemoteViews remoteViews = updateWidgetListView(context,
appWidgetIds[i]);
appWidgetManager.notifyAppWidgetViewDataChanged(appWidgetIds[i], R.id.listViewWidget);
appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetIds[i], remoteViews);
}
super.onUpdate(context, appWidgetManager, appWidgetIds);
}
private RemoteViews updateWidgetListView(Context context, int appWidgetId) {
RemoteViews remoteViews = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(),
R.layout.widget_layout);
//ListView
Intent svcIntent = new Intent(context, WidgetService.class);
svcIntent.putExtra(AppWidgetManager.EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID, appWidgetId);
svcIntent.setData(Uri.parse(svcIntent.toUri(Intent.URI_INTENT_SCHEME)));
remoteViews.setRemoteAdapter(appWidgetId, R.id.listViewWidget, svcIntent);
remoteViews.setEmptyView(R.id.listViewWidget, R.id.empty_view);
//REFRESH
PendingIntent updatePendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(context, 0, svcIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
remoteViews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.ivRefreshWidget, updatePendingIntent);
return remoteViews;
}
As you can see in the refresh part I tried using PendingIntent
to call the WidgetService
but when testing it doesn't refresh the list.
Thank you for the help in advance.
