I am populating a ListView using TextView as a row through SimpleCursorAdapter.The numbers in the TextView are displayed as say 8 or 2.6786 etc.I want them to be displayed as 8.00 or 2.67 etc.Can it be done through XML(like input Type method etc).Please suggest a wayout. The question is bit different as under: The codes are:
// THE DESIRED COLUMNS TO BE BOUND
columns = new String[] { slStock.KEY_SCRIPT, getColumnName(2),c.getColumnName(3)};
// THE XML DEFINED VIEWS FOR EACH FIELD TO BE BOUND TO
to = new int[] { R.id.tvstockscrpt, R.id.tvqty ,R.id.tvstockrate};
// CREATE ADAPTER WITH CURSOR POINTING TO DESIRED DATA
SimpleCursorAdapter cursAdapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this,R.layout.rowstock, c,columns, to);
lvstockdisplay.setAdapter(cursAdapter);
Here you will notice that the cursor c fetches data (from database query in background) and populates it in the ListView directly.The question is how can I format the cursor data for say the TextView whose id is(R.id.tvstockrate) and which is populated by c.getColumnNames(3).At which point in the codes the format statement can be inserted.
What about formatting the text when you set it?
yourTextView.setText(String.format("%.2f", value));
