In a TabHost widget, I can create a new tab with its content (Intent) using TabHost.addTab(TabHost.TabSpec tabSpec).
We can remove all tabs we created by calling clearAllTabs(), but I can't figure out how to remove the tab or just replace the content (Intent) inside the tab with new Intent.
so what I need something like removeTab(int index)
Actually, clearAllTabs does that :
public void clearAllTabs() {
mTabWidget.removeAllViews();
initTabHost();
mTabContent.removeAllViews();
mTabSpecs.clear();
requestLayout();
invalidate();
}
And the method removeAllViews comes from the class ViewGroup
. Luckily, ViewGroup
does have methods to remove only one view :
removeView(View view)
removeViewAt(int index)
removeViewInLayout(View view)
Knowing that, I would recommend to subclass TabWidget
and TabHost
to add the behaviour you need. Maybe there is an easier way but that's the only one I can think of.
Good luck
Much Easier:
tabHost.getTabWidget().removeView(tabHost.getTabWidget().getChildTabViewAt(3));
