Deleting items from a ListView using a custom BaseAdapter

Question

I am using a customised BaseAdapter to display items on a ListView. The items are just strings held in an ArrayList.

Answer 1

My final solution was to use the accepted answer by Greg and the following:

• Store the holders in a HashMap, with the item positions as the keys (this is initialised as empty in the constructor)

  private HashMap mHolders;

• Use this as the onClickListener method:

public void onClick(View v) {
    ViewHolder deleteHolder = (ViewHolder) v.getTag();
    int pos = deleteHolder.position;
    mHolders.remove(pos);


    ViewHolder currentHolder;

    // Shift 'position' of remaining languages 
    // down since 'pos' was deleted
    for(int i=pos+1; i
