Unable to refresh BrowseFragment listrow successfully after making change to json data

Hi,

I am building an android tv app with a BrowseFragment that displays a listrow with data pulled from a php created JSON file (data is got from MySQL table). There is a check that is run to see if any changes to the database and after which when the change is detected, the BrowseFragment is to be refreshed reloading the json data.

I attempted the refresh from both the BrowseFragments parent activity and the fragment itself (I attempted to use the clear() and addall() functions of ArrayObjectAdapter) and there would just be a flash/blinking but the information would not be refreshed. The only way I have been able to update the listrow has been to restart the app.

How can I successfully update/refresh the BrowseFragment list row?

I have placed the code for my MainFragment and BrowseFragment

Java:
public class MainFragment extends BrowseSupportFragment
        implements LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks<LinkedHashMap<String, List<Video>>>{

    private static final int BACKGROUND_UPDATE_DELAY = 300;

    private static final String TAG = MainFragment.class.getSimpleName();

    static final int GRID_ITEM_WIDTH = 300;
    private static final int GRID_ITEM_HEIGHT = 200;
    private final Handler mHandler = new Handler();
    //private ArrayObjectAdapter mRowsAdapter;
    private CustumArrayObjectAdapter mRowsAdapter;
    private Drawable mDefaultBackground;
    private DisplayMetrics mMetrics;
    private Runnable mBackgroundTask;
    private Uri mBackgroundURI;
    private BackgroundManager mBackgroundManager;
    private CustomListRow mGridItemListRow;
    private LoaderManager mLoaderManager;

    ArrayList<Video> mItems = null;
    private ArrayList<CustomListRow> mVideoListRowArray;
    private static final int VIDEO_ITEM_LOADER_ID = 1;

Without running the code on the debugger I'd say your runnable is never being called. I'd wrap it in a function then call it from the main activity.

I don't think that's it. The onCreate calls it delayed with handler.postDelayed(runnable, 10000); and then it calls itself every 10 seconds after.

Hi,

Java:
        call.enqueue(new Callback<String>() {
            @Override
            public void onResponse(Call<String> call, Response<String> response) {
                Log.i("Responsestring", response.body().toString());
                //Toast.makeText()
                if (response.isSuccessful()) {
                    if (response.body() != null) {
                        Log.i("onSuccess", response.body().toString());

                        String jsonresponse = response.body().toString();
                        chkResponse(jsonresponse);

                    } else {
                        Log.i("onEmptyResponse", "Returned empty response");//Toast.makeText(getContext(),"Nothing returned",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                    }
                }
            }

            @Override
            public void onFailure(Call<String> call, Throwable t) {

            }
        });

What are you seeing in your logs? If nothing, maybe add some logging to onFailure - you might be getting that triggered instead of onResponse and you've got nothing to tell you what's happening.

Hi, I am sure the handler is running (tested handler with toast in both the main fragment and activity) plus the blinking effect proves that there was a refresh but the listrow is not being updated.

Here is a piece of my global class where you can set and get stuff and pass data and objects between activities and even inside closures.

Code:
public static ListView listView=new ListView;
/* end variable definitions */



    /*start methods */





//get and set global list view.
    public void setListView(ListView list0){

        listView=list0;
    }

    public ListView getListView(){

        return listView;
    }

    public void reSetLock2Csplit00(){

        listView.clear();
    }
 
The timer is a closure then. Do you have a global class where you can set and get the listview.?

hi yes I do. There are two other class files that fetch the json list and load the json data

ok great ! make the listview global and then use it inside the runnable or inside whatever method the runnable calls
