Hey everyone!
Im new to Android Developement and currently working on my first app that should give me the time between first time clicking a button and second time clicking the button and save it to a currently selected customer.(I know there are already tons of those applications out there, but since im still learning and want an app that can be usefull for myself i decided to try )
Current Status of App:
I established a connection to da mySql Database using Volley and a local webservice.
It works to insert my customers and time stamps to the table, but when loading times for a specific customer i get a strange result in one case. I tried debugging it but the app keeps crashing on debugging without a message. When not debugging it doesnt crash but shows weird data.
To the problem:
In my main activity called "ZeitErfassen" i have a button to get an overview of all customers display in a ListView.
I create the Listview with a custom ArrayAdapter because i want to pass my objects to the next Activity where my customers are displayed.
So onCreate of the overview of customers i create a new arraylist and fill it with all customers from my database. this list i pass to my customadapter and then set it as my adapter of the Listview.
Now, when i click on an item, i call a php script and pass the customer_id to the query to fetch all times from database where customer_id = customer_id.
Now the part where i get "strange" data...
1.(Source:ZeitErfassen;Destination:AddCustomer) I create a new customer,example xyz, in the app, data gets passed to the database.
2.(Source:ZeitErfassen;DestinationisplayCustomer) I call my overview for all customers where the ListView is filled with data as described above. At the end ob the List I see the customer i just created,xyz.
3.Go back to Main Activity(ZeitErfassen)
4.(Source:ZeitErfassen;DestinationisplayCustomer)I open the overview for all customers again, and it shows my last created user two times! so last entry, xyz, entry before last, xyz!
After that, i can open the view as many times as i want, the customer never gets duplicated again!
The debugger stopps after step 2.
Now when i click on the new customers, it calls the script to fetch the times by customer_id.
One of the xyz entrys display the correct times from database.
The second one, i just found out, display the times where customer_id="". In the database the value for "" is 0.
I have no clue where the second customer suddenly appears from and debugging didnt help me either -.-
When i close the app an open it again, there ist just one entry for the user that was visible twice before closing the app. It doesnt duplicate on opening view...
I just discovered a second problem:
When starting the App, in the onCreate() method of my main activity(ZeitErfassen), the method customerFromDatabaseToList() should fill my LinkedList with all the customers and then the method createDropDown() should crate a spinner with all the customers from the list.
But when starting the app, I dont get any Data from by Database. Just when switching to another Activity and go back to the main.
The debugger didnt really help me. I want to debug the method twice, so first on create and then when switching back to the main activity. But the debugger stops after passing the breakpoint.(So i can debug the method once, but not twice...)
Here is my code..
