How to display Preferences in a View
- by Sybiam
I'm building some sort of wizard to create user accounts in Sync and Manage account. I use a ViewFlipper my activity has to be an AccountAuthenticatorActivity. That said it also means I can't inherit PreferenceActivity.
So I looked up in the code of PreferenceActivity and I believe it should be possible to have a PreferenceView that inherit from ListView. The Activity part of PreferenceActivity isn't really needed as far as I know.
Though the PreferenceManager is what really blocks me.
private PreferenceManager onCreatePreferenceManager() {
PreferenceManager preferenceManager = new PreferenceManager(this, FIRST_REQUEST_CODE);
preferenceManager.setOnPreferenceTreeClickListener(this);
return preferenceManager;
}
This function imply that we can instatiate PreferenceManager using the operator new. Apparently, the sdk hide the constructor of the PreferenceManager. I'm kind of confused.
Is there a way to inflate my preferences and display them without PreferenceActivity?
