For a particular reason I need my spinner's OnItemSelectedListener gets called even when user chooses the same item, but normally it doesn't. So I don't know how it is possible!
Any trick or libraries that can solve my problem?

  • Sounds like OnItemClickListener is not intended to be used with Android's Spinner, because when I do it, the app crashes. @Farrokh

  • Yeah, I've got other widgets too. But I don't think it's a matter of their presence. Look, there is no issue to get solved. It's a problem that needs a solution. @hamidkeyhani

ok

you can use addOnLayoutChangeListener



yourspinner.addOnLayoutChangeListener(new View.OnLayoutChangeListener() 
@Override
public void onLayoutChange(View view, int i, int i1, int i2, int i3, int i4, int i5, int i6, int i7)
Toast.makeText(context, "item is : " + yourspinner.getSelectedItemPosition(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

);

Make sure about the context. you can context as.



  • this


  • MainActivity.this


  • getApplicationContext()


If you are using the spinner in Fragment then you can use context as




getActivity()




String selectedItem;
String data="Australia","Delhi","Agra","Mumbai","America","Tanzania","Arizona";
spinner=(Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner);
ArrayAdapter<String> ad=new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,android.R.layout.simple_dropdown_item_1line,data);
spinner.setPrompt("Select State");
spinner.setAdapter(ad);
String val=spinner.getSelectedItem().toString();

spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener()
@Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int i, long l)
String val=spinner.getSelectedItem().toString();

selectedItem=data[i];

Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, " "+selectedItem, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();



@Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> adapterView)


);
