Question about setting WeekViewEvent

[alamkanak]

Currently the week view does not provide a ready-made solution for async event loading. But there is a simple hack. Use the following code to achieve what you want.

@Override
public List onMonthChange(int newYear, int newMonth) {
    // Populate the week view with some events.
    List events = new ArrayList();

    // Fetch events for the date user selected.
    fetchEventsinBackground();
}

// Callback when fetchEvents finishes.
public void setEventList(Activity activity, final List eventModels) {

    // Hide the progress dialog.
    if(mProgressDialog != null && mProgressDialog.isShowing()) {
        mProgressDialog.dismiss();
    }

    // Refresh the week view.
    activity.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            // Store the returned events in a global variable for later use.
            mEventModels = eventModels;

            // This line will trigger the method 'onMonthChange()' again.
            mWeekView.notifyDatasetChanged();
        }
    });
}

@Override
public List<WeekViewEvent> onMonthChange(int year, int month) {
    // TODO Be sure to check if the variables year and month equals the year and month of the events of mEventModels.
    return getWeekViewEventsFromEventModels(mEventModels);
}

Thank you for your prompt response.
Java doesn't support 2 methods with same signature, so I can't have something like this in the same class:

@OverRide
public List onMonthChange(int year, int month) {
// TODO Be sure to check if the variables year and month equals the year and month of the events of mEventModels.
return getWeekViewEventsFromEventModels(mEventModels);
}
@OverRide
public List onMonthChange(int newYear, int newMonth) {
// Populate the week view with some events.
List events = new ArrayList();

// Fetch events for the date user selected.
fetchEventsinBackground();

}
If mWeekView.notifyDatasetChanged(); triggers onMonthChange() again, then it results in an infinite loop with fetchEventsinBackground() being called again & again!

Is there a better way out ? Thanks for all the help!
