Same code on getView and getDropDownView on ANDROID spinner

Question

I read this question, making me understand why I must override getDropDownView and getView within my SpinnerAdapter class:

SpinnerActionAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> implements SpinnerAdapter

The problem is I have the exact same code both in the getDropDownView and getView, which I do not think is a very beautiful solution.

Does everyone who uses SpinnerAdapter have this code duplicated as well? Does anyone have a better solution?

Note: My code is working perfectly so there is no need to post it; it just looks strange because I have a lot of duplicated code.

Answer 1

call getView from your getDropDownView and return result

@Override
public View getDropDownView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    return getView(position, convertView, parent);
}
