Android Development: Passing A Parameter Into An Onclicklistener()

Basically I am creating buttons within a for loop, I need each button to return a different value when pressed. I had thought that creating my own onClickListener() and passing in

Solution 1:

Toast.makeText takes string resource id as a second argument. Your counter value is not a valid resource id that's way you are getting an error. You need to pass a String instead of int and it will work.

Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), String.valueOf(counter), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

Solution 2:

Instead of creating multiple listeners you can use setTag()

moreInfo = newButton(this);
moreInfo.setText("More Info");
moreInfo.setTag(newInteger(counter));
moreInfo.setOnClickListener(newDynamicOnClickListener();

then, in your listener

public void onClick(View v) {
    Log.v("DynamicOnClickListener","1");
    Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), ((Integer)v.getTag()).toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
