Passing Id Of Listview Item To Actionmode.callback Object

So my problem right now is that right now I am long clicking an item in a ListView which brings up a contextual action bar. The id passed into onItemLongClick is the variable that

Solution 1:

The proper way to do this is to call mActionMode.setTag("1") in onItemCheckedStateChanged and then from the onActionItemClicked function call mode.getTag();

Solution 2:

Create your own callback by extending the interface ActionMode.Callback

privateinterfaceActionCallbackextendsActionMode.Callback {
        publicvoidsetClickedView(View view);
}

privateActionCallback mActionModeCallback = newActionCallback() {

        publicView mClickedView;

        publicvoidsetClickedView(View view) {
            mClickedView = view;
        }

        // Called when the action mode is created; startActionMode() was called@OverridepublicbooleanonCreateActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu) {
            // Inflate a menu resource providing context menu itemsMenuInflater inflater = mode.getMenuInflater();
            inflater.inflate(R.menu.context_menu, menu);
            returntrue;
        }

        // Called each time the action mode is shown. Always called after onCreateActionMode, but// may be called multiple times if the mode is invalidated.@OverridepublicbooleanonPrepareActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu) {
            returnfalse; // Return false if nothing is done
        }

        // Called when the user selects a contextual menu item@OverridepublicbooleanonActionItemClicked(ActionMode mode, MenuItem item ) {
            switch ( item.getItemId() ) {
                case R.id.menu_delete:
                    Log.v( TAG, "#onActionItemClicked ready to delete the item with id: " + mClickedView.getTag() );
                    mode.finish();      // Action picked, so close the CABreturntrue;
                default:
                    returnfalse;
            }   // end switch
        }

        // Called when the user exits the action mode@OverridepublicvoidonDestroyActionMode(ActionMode mode) {
            mActionMode = null;
        }
};

For a view which has OnLongClickListener attached, override the onLongClick callback this way.

@Override// Called when the user long-clicks on someViewpublicbooleanonLongClick( View view ) {
                    // proceed only when actionmode is not null// otherwise overlapping action modes will be// displayedif( mActionMode != null ) {
                        returnfalse;
                    }

                    mActionModeCallback.setClickedView(view);
                    // Start the CAB using the ActionMode.Callback defined above
                    mActionMode = startActionMode( mActionModeCallback );
                    view.setSelected(true);
                    returntrue;
                }
