InfoWindow containing a ListView maps v2 android

Question

I have been trying to implement a ListView inside a custom Google maps info window.

How do I get the ListView to populate and show?

I have the info window showing with the other relevant information by creating this InfoWindowAdapter

class CustomInfoWindowAdapter implements InfoWindowAdapter {

    @Override
    public View getInfoContents(Marker arg0) {

         // Getting view from the layout file info_window_layout        
        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) mContext.getSystemService( Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE );
        View v = (View)inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_info_window, null);

        if (clickedClusterItem != null) {   

            //This is the area that does not show
            ListView listitemview = (ListView) v.findViewById(R.id.ListItems);
            InfoItemAdapter customadapter = new InfoItemAdapter(MapActivity.this,clickedClusterItem.ListItems); 
            listitemview.setAdapter(customadapter);

            //Getting reference to the TextView to set footer
            TextView footer = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.InfoFooter);  
            footer.setText(getResources().getString(R.string.info_window_footer));

            //Getting reference to the TextView to set Title
            TextView name = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.LocationName);
            name.setText(clickedClusterItem.Name);

        }
        // Returning the view containing InfoWindow contents
        return v;           
    }

    @Override
    public View getInfoWindow(Marker arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return null;
    }

}

The Custom adapter for each item in the list

public class InfoItemAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<ListItem> {
  private final Context context;
  private final ArrayList<ListItem> listitems;

  public InfoItemAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<ListItem> listitems) {
        super(context, R.layout.custom_info_window_list_item);
        this.context = context;
        this.listitems= listitems;
  }

  @Override
  public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        View rowView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_info_window_list_item, parent, false);

        TextView firstLine = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.firstLine);
        firstLine.setText(listitems.get(position).getDescription());

        TextView secondLine = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.secondLine);
        secondLine.setText(listitems.get(position).getTimeString());
        // Set the icon
        ImageView imageView = (ImageView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.icon);
        imageView.setImageResource(listitems.get(position).getIcon());

        return rowView;
  }

}

These are my XML layouts

The parent view which contains the List and other properties which are populated

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:layout_width="200dp"

This poster seems to have accomplished it but I cant seem to get it to work. I do not need click functionality on the list android marker custom infowindow

Answer 1

OK, I could not get the list to populate within the info window.

I ended up getting my desired result by building the new views programatically within the CustomInfoWindowAdapter -> getInfoContents method.

This is my updated CustomInfoWindowClass which does work. If anyone comes across this who knows how to implement a list on a info window your input would be appreciated.

class CustomInfoWindowAdapter implements InfoWindowAdapter {      
    @Override
    public View getInfoContents(Marker arg0) {
         // Getting view from the layout file info_window_layout

        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) MapActivity.this.getSystemService( Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE );
        View v = (View)inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_info_window, null);
        LinearLayout view = (LinearLayout)v;
        if (clickedClusterItem != null) {      
            if(clickedClusterItem.ListItems.size()>0){
                LinearLayout.LayoutParams lp = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
                        LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                        LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
                lp.setMargins(10, 0, 10, 0);

                for(ListItem listItem : clickedClusterItem.ListItems){
                    TextView listitemdesc = new TextView(MapActivity.this);
                    TextView listitemtime = new TextView(MapActivity.this);
                    listitemdesc.setText(hh.getDescription());
                    listitemdesc.setTextSize(18f);
                    listitemtime.setTextSize(12f);
                    listitemtime.setText(hh.getTimeString());
                    if(Helpers.isActive(listItem))
                    {
                        listitemdesc.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#f7941d"));
                        listitemtime.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#f7941d"));
                    }
                    else if(Helpers.isCommingSoon(listItem)){
                        listitemdesc.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#008fd5"));
                        listitemtime.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#008fd5"));
                    }
                    else{
                        listitemdesc.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#515e64"));
                    }
                    listitemdesc.setLayoutParams(lp);
                    listitemtime.setLayoutParams(lp);
                    view.addView(listitemdesc); 
                    view.addView(listitemtime);

                }
            }
            //Getting reference to the TextView to set Title
            TextView name = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.LocationName);
            name.setText(clickedClusterItem.Name);     
        }
     // Returning the view containing InfoWindow contents
        return v;

    }

    @Override
    public View getInfoWindow(Marker arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return null;
    }

}
