Public methods

findIndexOfValue

public int findIndexOfValue (String value)

Returns the index of the given value (in the entry values array).

Parameters
`value`	`String`: The value whose index should be returned.

Returns
`int`	The index of the value, or -1 if not found.

getEntries

public CharSequence[] getEntries ()

The list of entries to be shown in the list in subsequent dialogs.

Returns
`CharSequence[]`	The list as an array.

getEntryValues

public CharSequence[] getEntryValues ()

Returns the array of values to be saved for the preference.

Returns
`CharSequence[]`	The array of values.

getValues

public Set<String> getValues ()

Retrieves the current value of the key.

Returns
`Set<String>`

setEntries

public void setEntries (CharSequence[] entries)

Sets the human-readable entries to be shown in the list. This will be shown in subsequent dialogs.

Each entry must have a corresponding index in setEntryValues(java.lang.CharSequence[]).

Parameters
`entries`	`CharSequence`: The entries.

See also:

setEntryValues(CharSequence[])

setEntries

public void setEntries (int entriesResId)

Parameters
`entriesResId`	`int`: The entries array as a resource.

See also:

setEntries(CharSequence[])

setEntryValues

public void setEntryValues (int entryValuesResId)

Parameters
`entryValuesResId`	`int`: The entry values array as a resource.

See also:

setEntryValues(CharSequence[])

setEntryValues

public void setEntryValues (CharSequence[] entryValues)

The array to find the value to save for a preference when an entry from entries is selected. If a user clicks on the second item in entries, the second item in this array will be saved to the preference.

Parameters
`entryValues`	`CharSequence`: The array to be used as values to save for the preference.

setValues

public void setValues (Set<String> values)

Sets the value of the key. This should contain entries in getEntryValues().

Parameters
`values`	`Set`: The values to set for the key.

Protected methods

onDialogClosed

protected void onDialogClosed (boolean positiveResult)

Called when the dialog is dismissed and should be used to save data to the SharedPreferences.

Parameters
`positiveResult`	`boolean`: Whether the positive button was clicked (true), or the negative button was clicked or the dialog was canceled (false).

onGetDefaultValue

protected Object onGetDefaultValue (TypedArray a, 
                int index)

Called when a Preference is being inflated and the default value attribute needs to be read. Since different Preference types have different value types, the subclass should get and return the default value which will be its value type.

For example, if the value type is String, the body of the method would proxy to TypedArray#getString(int).

Parameters
`a`	`TypedArray`: The set of attributes.
`index`	`int`: The index of the default value attribute.

Returns
`Object`	The default value of this preference type.

onPrepareDialogBuilder

protected void onPrepareDialogBuilder (AlertDialog.Builder builder)

Prepares the dialog builder to be shown when the preference is clicked. Use this to set custom properties on the dialog.

Do not AlertDialog.Builder#create() or AlertDialog.Builder#show().

Parameters
`builder`	`AlertDialog.Builder`

onSaveInstanceState

protected Parcelable onSaveInstanceState ()

Hook allowing a Preference to generate a representation of its internal state that can later be used to create a new instance with that same state. This state should only contain information that is not persistent or can be reconstructed later.

Returns
`Parcelable`	A Parcelable object containing the current dynamic state of this Preference, or `null` if there is nothing interesting to save. The default implementation returns `null`.

onSetInitialValue

protected void onSetInitialValue (boolean restoreValue, 
                Object defaultValue)

Implement this to set the initial value of the Preference.

If restorePersistedValue is true, you should restore the Preference value from the SharedPreferences. If restorePersistedValue is false, you should set the Preference value to defaultValue that is given (and possibly store to SharedPreferences if shouldPersist() is true).

In case of using PreferenceDataStore, the restorePersistedValue is always true. But the default value (if provided) is set.

This may not always be called. One example is if it should not persist but there is no default value given.

Parameters
`restoreValue`	`boolean`: True to restore the persisted value; false to use the given `defaultValue`.
`defaultValue`	`Object`: The default value for this Preference. Only use this if `restorePersistedValue` is false.
