I am creating SMS app. I am sending and receiving SMS with my application and then can show them in ListView. But listview doesn't get updated as soon as I send or receive SMS. I have to press back button , after that if I again go to ListView Activity then new SMS are shown.
How can I make listview refresh automatically as soon as sms arrives or is send ?
Code is :
public class ChatActivity extends ListActivity {
private MyListAdapter adapter;
ArrayList<String> item_id = new ArrayList<String>();
ArrayList<String> item_phone_num = new ArrayList<String>();
ArrayList<String> item_msg_body = new ArrayList<String>();
ArrayList<String> item_time = new ArrayList<String>();
ArrayList<String> item_flag = new ArrayList<String>();
ArrayList<String> items = new ArrayList<String>();
private Button btn_send;
DbManager manager;
Cursor Cursor;
ViewHolder holder12;
String contact_for_chat;
String contact_no;
String message_body = "";
Calendar c;
SimpleDateFormat sdf;
String time;
EditText et_chat;
String flag;
String msg = "";
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
contact_for_chat = bundle.getString("contact_name");
contact_for_chat = contact_for_chat.replace(" ", "");
contact_no = Util.getContactNumber(contact_for_chat, ChatActivity.this);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), contact_no, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
final ViewHolder holder = new ViewHolder();
manager = new DbManager(this);
Cursor = manager.Return_All(contact_no);
showEvents(Cursor);
c = Calendar.getInstance();
sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd:MMMM:yyyy HH:mm:ss a");
time = sdf.format(c.getTime());
setActionBar();
findViewsById();
adapter = new MyListAdapter(this);
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
setListAdapter(adapter);
btn_send = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
btn_send.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
SendSMS();
}
});
}
protected void SendSMS() {
SmsManager sms_manager = SmsManager.getDefault();
message_body = et_chat.getText().toString();
ArrayList<String> parts = sms_manager.divideMessage(message_body);
sms_manager.sendMultipartTextMessage(contact_no, null, parts, null, null);
flag = "1";
manager.Insert_sms_data(time, contact_no, message_body,flag);
msg+= "SMS to :" + contact_for_chat + " \n";
msg += "having number:" + contact_no + " \n";
msg += "as" +message_body + " \n";
msg += "at"+ time + " \n";
