Splitting the Tab

Then, add smarts to onListClick to update the details form:

private AdapterView.OnItemClickListener onListClick=new

AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {

public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent,

View view, int position,

long id) {

Restaurant r=model.get(position);

name.setText(r.getName());

address.setText(r.getAddress());

if (r.getType().equals("sit_down")) {

types.check(R.id.sit_down);

}

else if (r.getType().equals("take_out")) {

types.check(R.id.take_out);

}

else {

types.check(R.id.delivery);

}

}

};

Note how we find the clicked-upon restaurant via the position parameter,

which is an index into our ArrayList of restaurants.

Step #5: Switch Tabs On Clicks...........................................................

Finally, we want to switch to the details form when the user clicks a

restaurant in the list.

This is just one extra line of code, in the onItemClick() method of our

onListClick listener object:

getTabHost().setCurrentTab( 1 );

This just changes the current tab to the one known as index 1 , which is the

second tab (tabs start counting at 0 ).

At this point, you should be able to recompile and reinstall the application

and test out the new functionality.
