any thoughts as to how to go about loading multiple images in a single row? looking through the code, i can't tell if it would be a rather complicated mess to handle or if it is pretty much baked in. sorry if this is an inappropriate forum for this question, but i figured it would be a good publicly answered question for others who are curious.

I have found that using the library, my Samsung Tab3 device runs out of memory when scrolling and switching to/from portrait/landscape. Initially the gridview is populated (with albumart) normally. Flinging up and down uses around 65 to 70Mb. and this level is fairly constant. However, once you have switched orientation, memory usage jumps up and quickly reaches over 90Mb after which the scrolling and refreshing becomes extremely slow. Finallly the app simply stops. (no ANR) I have taken the sample Gallery app, but instead of images, I display albumart. No other amendments were made. I have around 600 albums to display. ps tested with an earlier version but same behaviour

When i try to inflate the AsyncListView, like this:

AsyncListView mListView = (AsyncListView) findViewById(android.R.id.list);

This is the xml:

          xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
          android:id="@android:id/list"
          android:layout_width="match_parent"
          android:layout_height="match_parent" />```


It gives me this error:

Updated project.

This allows the project to be used with the latest version of Android Studio 0.4.+ (note I believe this stops compatibility with ASide 0.3.+)

Added the build in Gradle wrapper so this project can be easily imported into ASide.

I am using the library in my app "Playlist Manager" The implementation of displaying albumart is more or less similar to the example. However, smoothie never seems to get it 100% correct. It seems to decide not to display according to some arbitary rules. I do not have the technical understanding to fully understand managing threads etc so have done my best to understand the process. I do not seem to get closer to resolving this.

For example, without touching, displaying 5 tracks from the same album (id = 12) albumart icon on the left, track detail, track duration and checkbox, produces different results each time. Never are all tracks displayed with its albumart. When flinging and moving up/down, smoothie is never able to be 100% correct and often displays the incorrect albumart (related to the previous page) Below the sequence of events from ItemLoader using Log.i:

performLoadItem for position 0 - shouldDisplayItem = true No pending item request, creating new: 12 performLoadItem - shouldDisplayItem = true|| isItemInMemory(itemParams) performLoadItem for position 1 - shouldDisplayItem = true No pending item request, creating new: 12 performLoadItem - shouldDisplayItem = true|| isItemInMemory(itemParams) performLoadItem for position 2 - shouldDisplayItem = true There's a pending item request, reusing: 12 performLoadItem - shouldDisplayItem = true|| isItemInMemory(itemParams) performLoadItem for position 3 - shouldDisplayItem = true There's a pending item request, reusing: 12 performLoadItem - shouldDisplayItem = true|| isItemInMemory(itemParams) performLoadItem for position 4 - shouldDisplayItem = true There's a pending item request, reusing: 12 performLoadItem - shouldDisplayItem = true|| isItemInMemory(itemParams) mRequest.itemView != null - Done loading image: mRequest.itemView != null - Done loading image: mRequest.itemView != null - Done loading image: mItemLoader.mHandler.post - run the display routine mItemLoader.mHandler.post - run the display routine mItemLoader.itemViewReused mRequest.itemView != null - Done loading image: mItemLoader.itemViewReused mRequest.itemView != null - Done loading image: mItemLoader.mHandler.post - run the display routine

The end result is shown

The outcome is different each time.

also During my investigation I found the following code line 705 if (mItemLoader.itemViewReused(mRequest)) { return; } but further on Line 719 the same test is made. Is one of these redundant?

Who can help me out here?

When i use AsyncListView with addFooterView for a endless listview always got

IllegalStateException: The content of the adapter has changed but ListView did not receive a notification.

I found a hacky way to solve this.

change AsyncListView as fellow:

@Override public ListAdapter getAdapter() { // if (mItemManaged != null) { // return mItemManaged.getWrappedAdapter(); // } else { // return super.getAdapter(); // } return super.getAdapter(); }

please fix this.

Hello lucasr,

I like your project very much, and I'd love to see it hit production! I don't know if the following is a bug or I'm doing something wrong, please advise.

I use list items with some text and an imageview, data coming from db. If I scroll slowly, everything seems to work fine. However, when I fling the list, and there's no chance of preloading items fast enough, instead of seeing the default (empty) placeholder view, I see random, already left behind elements re-appearing until the loading finishes and correct data and images replace them.

Could you please help me track down the source of this problem? It looks really annoying. Is there any place where the placeholder view gets cached? Where exactly does it get displayed until loading finishes?

Thanks & regards, zsoltk

Hi,

I'm experimenting with a StaggerdGridView and would it be possible to make Smoothie compatible with that? I's not a subclass of AbsListView.

https://github.com/maurycyw/StaggeredGridView

Thanks!

Hi, I guess it would be great if smoothie could be integrated with a pull to refresh listview library. Here's one that I found stable - https://github.com/chrisbanes/Android-PullToRefresh

Why can't we use it to display the image on any imageview? Do we have to use AsyncListView? What will happen if we already using extended version of a listview? And how can we use it in a detail page for example?

Hello,

I'm using your lib with bitmap-cache on a ListView. On some devices (and randomly), I get this kind of error. My code is just a copy/paste of the example code, so I think the bug is on your side :)

I have a ViewPager with 3 tabs, Tracks, Albums, Artists. Each fragment (alltracks, allalbums, allartists) is more or less identical apart from getting and displaying different media detail. For the fragments where I display albumart, the preview letter when fastscrolling does not show. However for the allartist tab, I do not display any albumart and have omitted mListView.setItemManager(builder.build()); The preview letter shows. Adding the ListView.setItemManager(builder.build()); code, preview letter dissappears.

The SectionIndexer callbacks are not being called: public Object[] getSections(); public int getPositionForSection(int sectionIndex) public int getSectionForPosition(int position)

Is there anyhing that can be done?

I was just looking through this library and its just awesome, cheers for creating it. I guess its good to use in my recent application but just then i saw your note that it is still in beta? Would development continue on this library?

Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask, but in your BitmapCache example, you only load data the json for the patterns once, in my use case, I need to load additional pages after the first load (Each page has 20 results for example), would this be possible if so any hint how?

Using generics in the ItemLoader is possible to avoid the dependency from android.widget.Adapter and ease future generalisations that can use other type of adapters/target views (eg: RecyclerView). This has been possible because ItemLoader does not rely on any android.widget.Adapter behaviour, but uses that type only in the signature of some of its business methods.

We have a 2-part item in our ListView, a big image with a small profile picture.

Some big images (first priority) don't load when the user is looking at them. Edit: What I mean here, if you scroll slowly, the off-screen images load properly, but if an image is not loaded, and the user has that ListView item visible on the screen, it never loads.

I enabled logging in Smoothie, and this is what I get on those items:

"Item should not load, bailing: ..." (line 243 in ItemLoader)

But they are null/set to placeholder, and should load. If I switch to single-item, the big images load properly.

The current hack is commenting out the entire block starting with: if (!itemState.shouldLoadItem) {...}

Everything works as it should then, but I'm guessing there's a good reason that block is there, and it's definitely not the proper way :).
