I managed to get around this problem, but I think this might be a bug.
to refresh the text within the tab, I had to fetch the TextView widget
for the actual tab, and invalidate that...
RelativeLayout vg = (RelativeLayout)getTabWidget().getChildAt(0);
if (vg != null)
{
TextView v = (TextView) vg.getChildAt(1);
if (v != null)
{
v.setText(str);
v.invalidate();
}
}
This worked. BUT I shouldn't have to fetch this TextView should I?, I
should be able to invalidate and refresh my tags at a higher level? Is
this a bug or am I missing something?
