这个问题肯定经常出现。
当用户在Android应用程序中编辑首选项时,我希望他们能够在首选项摘要中看到当前设置的首选项值。
例如:如果我有“丢弃旧消息”的首选项设置,该设置指定了需要清理消息的天数。在PreferenceActivity中,我想让用户看到:
"丢弃旧消息" <- title
“x天后清理消息”<- summary,其中x是当前首选项值
额外的学分:使此可重用,所以我可以很容易地将它应用到我的所有首选项,而不管它们的类型(使它与EditTextPreference, ListPreference等工作,只需最少的编码)。
如果您只想显示每个字段的纯文本值作为摘要,那么下面的代码应该是最容易维护的。它只需要两处更改(第13行和第21行,标记为“此处更改”):
package com.my.package;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.content.SharedPreferences.OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.preference.EditTextPreference;
import android.preference.ListPreference;
import android.preference.Preference;
import android.preference.PreferenceActivity;
public class PreferencesActivity extends PreferenceActivity implements OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener {
private final String[] mAutoSummaryFields = { "pref_key1", "pref_key2", "pref_key3" }; // change here
private final int mEntryCount = mAutoSummaryFields.length;
private Preference[] mPreferenceEntries;
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preferences_file); // change here
mPreferenceEntries = new Preference[mEntryCount];
for (int i = 0; i < mEntryCount; i++) {
mPreferenceEntries[i] = getPreferenceScreen().findPreference(mAutoSummaryFields[i]);
}
}
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
for (int i = 0; i < mEntryCount; i++) {
updateSummary(mAutoSummaryFields[i]); // initialization
}
getPreferenceScreen().getSharedPreferences().registerOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this); // register change listener
}
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
getPreferenceScreen().getSharedPreferences().unregisterOnSharedPreferenceChangeListener(this); // unregister change listener
}
private void updateSummary(String key) {
for (int i = 0; i < mEntryCount; i++) {
if (key.equals(mAutoSummaryFields[i])) {
if (mPreferenceEntries[i] instanceof EditTextPreference) {
final EditTextPreference currentPreference = (EditTextPreference) mPreferenceEntries[i];
mPreferenceEntries[i].setSummary(currentPreference.getText());
}
else if (mPreferenceEntries[i] instanceof ListPreference) {
final ListPreference currentPreference = (ListPreference) mPreferenceEntries[i];
mPreferenceEntries[i].setSummary(currentPreference.getEntry());
}
break;
}
}
}
public void onSharedPreferenceChanged(SharedPreferences sharedPreferences, String key) {
updateSummary(key);
}
}
如果适合您的需求,有一些方法可以使其成为更通用的解决方案。
例如,如果你想让所有的列表首选项显示为摘要,你可以为你的onSharedPreferenceChanged实现:
public void onSharedPreferenceChanged(SharedPreferences sharedPreferences, String key) {
Preference pref = findPreference(key);
if (pref instanceof ListPreference) {
ListPreference listPref = (ListPreference) pref;
pref.setSummary(listPref.getEntry());
}
}
这很容易扩展到其他首选项类。
通过使用PreferenceScreen和PreferenceCategory中的getPreferenceCount和getPreference功能,您可以轻松地编写一个泛型函数来遍历首选项树,设置所需类型的所有首选项的摘要到它们的toString表示
Here,all these are cut from Eclipse sample SettingsActivity.
I have to copy all these too much codes to show how these android developers choose perfectly for more generalized and stable coding style.
I left the codes for adapting the PreferenceActivity to tablet and greater API.
public class SettingsActivity extends PreferenceActivity {
@Override
protected void onPostCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onPostCreate(savedInstanceState);
setupSummaryUpdatablePreferencesScreen();
}
private void setupSummaryUpdatablePreferencesScreen() {
// In the simplified UI, fragments are not used at all and we instead
// use the older PreferenceActivity APIs.
// Add 'general' preferences.
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.pref_general);
// Bind the summaries of EditText/List/Dialog preferences to
// their values. When their values change, their summaries are updated
// to reflect the new value, per the Android Design guidelines.
bindPreferenceSummaryToValue(findPreference("example_text"));
bindPreferenceSummaryToValue(findPreference("example_list"));
}
/**
* A preference value change listener that updates the preference's summary
* to reflect its new value.
*/
private static Preference.OnPreferenceChangeListener sBindPreferenceSummaryToValueListener = new Preference.OnPreferenceChangeListener() {
private String TAG = SettingsActivity.class.getSimpleName();
@Override
public boolean onPreferenceChange(Preference preference, Object value) {
String stringValue = value.toString();
if (preference instanceof ListPreference) {
// For list preferences, look up the correct display value in
// the preference's 'entries' list.
ListPreference listPreference = (ListPreference) preference;
int index = listPreference.findIndexOfValue(stringValue);
// Set the summary to reflect the new value.
preference.setSummary(
index >= 0
? listPreference.getEntries()[index]
: null);
} else {
// For all other preferences, set the summary to the value's
// simple string representation.
preference.setSummary(stringValue);
}
Log.i(TAG, "pref changed : " + preference.getKey() + " " + value);
return true;
}
};
/**
* Binds a preference's summary to its value. More specifically, when the
* preference's value is changed, its summary (line of text below the
* preference title) is updated to reflect the value. The summary is also
* immediately updated upon calling this method. The exact display format is
* dependent on the type of preference.
*
* @see #sBindPreferenceSummaryToValueListener
*/
private static void bindPreferenceSummaryToValue(Preference preference) {
// Set the listener to watch for value changes.
preference.setOnPreferenceChangeListener(sBindPreferenceSummaryToValueListener);
// Trigger the listener immediately with the preference's
// current value.
sBindPreferenceSummaryToValueListener.onPreferenceChange(preference,
PreferenceManager
.getDefaultSharedPreferences(preference.getContext())
.getString(preference.getKey(), ""));
}

NOTE: Actually I just want to comment like "Google's sample for PreferenceActivity is also interesting". But I haven't enough reputation points.So please don't blame me.
