I have a MainActivity class with an "Add Item" button and a listview and a AddItemActivity class with a textbox and a "save" button. The user should click on the "Add Item", go to the AddItemActivity screen, enter an item, click save and then go back to the updated MainActivity screen.
(BTW, I m using MonoDroid, but I don t think this is necessary a MonoDroid specific problem).
My "Add item" click event (on main activity):
private void addItemButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var intent = new Intent();
intent.SetClassName(this, "monoApp.AddItemClassName");
StartActivityForResult(intent, 0);
}
My "Save" click event (on add item activity):
private void saveButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var itemname = FindViewById<EditText>(Resource.id.itemName);
_repo.SaveItem(new Item() {Name = itemname.Text.ToString()});
Toast.MakeText(this, "You saved: " + itemname.Text, ToastLength.Short).Show();
var intent = new Intent();
SetResult(Result.Ok, intent);
Finish();
}
And then back in main activity:
protected override void OnActivityResult(int requestCode, Result resultCode, Intent data)
{
base.OnActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
RefreshTheList();
}
This works like a charm, on the first time. The screen slides over to add item , and then slides back to main when it s done. The second time, it slides over, but then it slides back to itself, if that makes any sense. And then if I hit save again, it goes back to working fine.
If video would help, I ve posted a clip of what I m seeing to TwitVid: http://www.twitvid.com/W7XZC
Basically, I don t want it to "slide back to itself" ever, so what am I doing wrong?
