Custom filtering in AutoCompleteTextView not working

Question

I am extending the Array Adapter as it follows but I get still the old results can you please tell me what is the problem ?

public class Adaptor extends ArrayAda         


        

Answer 1

Your list contains items from "items" and you don't modify items in it, you have to remove positions from "items" and then call notifyDataSetChange, to restore lately all items you have to save previous items

this is works fine:

public class FriendsAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<User>
{
    private final LayoutInflater inflater;
    private final ImageLoader il;
    private Context parentContext;
    private List<User> mData;
    private List<User> mOriginalData;
    public SimpleImageLoader sil;

    @Override
    public void add(User object)
    {
        if (mOriginalData != null)
            mOriginalData.add(object);
        else
            mData.add(object);
    }

    @Override
    public void remove(User object)
    {
        if (mOriginalData != null)
            mOriginalData.remove(object);
        else
            mData.remove(object);
    }

    @Override

    {
        return mData.size();
    }

    {
        return mData.get(position);
    }

    @Override
    public int getPosition(User item)
    {
        return mData.indexOf(item);
    }

    public FriendsAdapter(Context context, int textViewResourceId, List<User> objects)
