Android Multiple Intents - One Form

Good afternoon, I am trying to create a basic menu in my andorid application which contains 5 buttons each bringing you to another form. I am trying to create the java to carry out

Solution 1:

@Meryl2 When u are using ""android:onClick="btnLogout"""

Then you should have corresponding method public void btnLogout(View view{ //your code here }

Same applies for all buttons in your code

Solution 2:

Your Mistakes ->

You have not used setcontentView() nor you overridden onCreate() method. One more thing, you are not sending intent correctly.

Here is how you can send intent

Intent intent = newIntent(getApplicationContext(), DestinationActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);

Solution 3:

I have modified the class and the layout. You need to create the other classes for each action.

publicclassMainActivityextendsActivityimplementsButton.OnClickListener{


@OverrideprotectedvoidonCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);


}

@OverridepublicvoidonClick(View v) {
    intid= v.getId();

    Intentintent=null;
    if(id == R.id.btnHockey) {
        intent = newIntent(MainActivity.this, Hockey.class);
    } elseif(id == R.id.btnCurling) {
        intent = newIntent(MainActivity.this, Curling.class);
    } elseif(id == R.id.btnFootball) {
        intent = newIntent(MainActivity.this, Football.class);
    } elseif(id == R.id.btnLogout) {
        intent = newIntent(MainActivity.this, Logout.class);
    } elseif(id == R.id.btnLacrosse) {
        intent = newIntent(MainActivity.this, Lacrosse.class);
    }

    startActivity(intent);
}

}

Solution 4:

I think i got your problem. In each Button you set the name of the method that will be used when you click on it :

android:onClick="btnCurling"

android:onClick="btnHockey"

...

But you only have one method here which is :

publicvoidButtonOnClick(View v){
    ...
}

---

One solution is to define each method like so :

publicclassMainMenuextendsActivity {

    protectedvoidonCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        // here you tell your activity what layout he will display
        setContentView(R.layout.TheNameOfYourLayout);
    }

    // it will get there when you click on the "@+id/btnHockey" ButtonpublicvoidbtnHockey(View v) {
        Intentintent=newIntent(this, NameOfTheActivityToLaunch.class);
        startActivity(intent);
    }

    // then you add the other ones btnCurling, ...
}

---

Another solution is to set the Listener of each button programmatically :

publicclassMainMenuextendsActivityimplementsView.OnClickListener {

    protectedvoidonCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        // Here you tell your activity what layout he will display
        setContentView(R.layout.TheNameOfYourLayout);

        // This will find your button in the layout you just set // and then set this Class as your Listener
        findViewById(R.id.btnFootball).setOnClickListener(this);
        
        // Then set the listener of all your other buttons
    }

    @OverridepublicvoidonClick(View v) {
        
        switch (v.getId()) {
            case R.id.btnFootball:
                Intentintent=newIntent(this, NameOfTheActivityToLaunch.class);
                startActivity(intent);
                break;
            case R.id.btnHockey:
                Intentintent=newIntent(this, NameOfTheActivityToLaunch.class);
                startActivity(intent);
                break;
            
            // ...
        }   
    }
}

You also have to remove all the android:onClick="btnCurling" line in your XML Layout file for this solution to work.

Hope it helps cheers :)

Solution 5:

Try this code;

publicclassMainMenuextendsActivityimplementsOnClickListener {
Button btn_football,btn_hokey,btn_something; // add another button here@OverrideprotectedvoidonCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stubsuper.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.yourlayout);
    btn_football = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnFootball);
    // add another button here same way
    btn_football.setOnClickListener(this); 
    // add another button here same way @OverridepublicvoidonClick(View v) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stubswitch(v.getId()){
    case R.id.btnFootball:
        Intentintent=newIntent(MainMenu.this,(nextclass_addhere).class);
        startActivity(intent);
        break;
    case R.id.another button:
      Intentintent=newIntent(MainMenu.this,(nextclass_addhere).class);
       startActivity(intent);  
    break;
    //.......add here another button with same way
 }

}

}
