I'm currently trying to use the ButterKnife library for Android to handle some boilerplate code (https://github.com/JakeWharton/butterknife)
I've got it set up, and got it semi-working, but i've run into a problem i can't fix :/
I have a Fragment which contains 1 single ListView element, and to this ListView i'm attaching a footer view which contains several elements.
This is a code snippet from my fragment using the library:
public class UsersFragment extends Fragment {
@InjectView(R.id.users_listview_id) AutoUpdatingListView list;
private View footerView;
@InjectView(R.id.add_user_footer_firstname_edittext_id) BootstrapEditText firstnameEditText;
@InjectView(R.id.add_user_footer_middlename_edittext_id) BootstrapEditText middlenameEditText;
@InjectView(R.id.add_user_footer_lastname_edittext_id) BootstrapEditText lastnameEditText;
@InjectView(R.id.add_user_footer_cancel_button_id) BootstrapButton cancelButton;
@InjectView(R.id.add_user_footer_okay_button_id) BootstrapButton okayButton;
@InjectView(R.id.add_user_footer_facebook_button) BootstrapCircleThumbnail facebookButton;
@InjectView(R.id.add_user_footer_google_plus_button) BootstrapCircleThumbnail googlePlusButton;
@InjectView(R.id.add_user_footer_twitter_button) BootstrapCircleThumbnail twitterButton;
@InjectView(R.id.add_user_footer_linkedin_button) BootstrapCircleThumbnail linkedInButton;
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.user_fragment, container, false);
footerView = ((LayoutInflater) getActivity().getSystemService(Activity.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE)).inflate(R.layout.add_user_footer_view, null, false);
ButterKnife.inject(this, rootView);
list.setAdapter(adapter);
}
}
The above code does NOT work, as i can only inject with 1 view, and if i try with both of them (2x inject's), the second inject overrides the first one, leaving me with null values.
I can't seem to specify which view contains which elements like i can with the regular findViewById().
To clarify, this is my non-ButterKnife code (which works 100%):
list = (AutoUpdatingListView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.users_listview_id);
firstnameEditText = (BootstrapEditText) footerView.findViewById(R.id.add_user_footer_firstname_edittext_id);
middlenameEditText = (BootstrapEditText) footerView.findViewById(R.id.add_user_footer_middlename_edittext_id);
lastnameEditText = (BootstrapEditText) footerView.findViewById(R.id.add_user_footer_lastname_edittext_id);
As you can see above, i can specify either "rootView" or "footerView" as the target of the findViewById.
Anyone able to help out with this issue? As it's driving me nuts at the moment..
