I have been attempting to to filter/search the Adapter adapter with the mSearch EditText. I am looking for help with implementing getFilter() and so on.
This activity is currently displaying a list of content. mSearch is placed above the list and I would like to filter/update the list as someone types.
Let me know if you need specific pieces of code or for more information. Thank you in advance!
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
private SearchView mSearch;
private List<Model> mMain = new ArrayList<Model>();
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
public class MainFragment extends Fragment implements SearchView.OnQueryTextListener {
private ListView mListView;
private Adapter mAdapter;
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String query) {
if (mAdapter != null) {
mAdapter.getFilter().filter(query.toString());
}
return false;
}
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
onQueryTextChange(query);
return false;
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.main_user_list_row, container, false);
mListView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView);
mAdapter = new Adapter();
mListView.setAdapter(mAdapter);
mListView.setAdapter.setTextFilterEnabled(true);
mSearch.setOnQueryTextListener((SearchView.OnQueryTextListener) mContext);
return rootView;
}
public class Adapter extends BaseAdapter implements Filterable {
@Override
public int getCount() {
return mMain.size();
}
@Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
return 1;
}
@Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
View view = View.inflate(mContext, R.layout.main_user_list_row, null);
if (mContext != null && mMain.get(position) != null) {
TextView mPosition = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.position);
mPosition.setText("...");
}
return view;
}
@Override
public Filter getFilter() {
return new Filter() {
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
@Override
protected void publishResults(CharSequence constraint, FilterResults results) {
mMain = (List<Model>) results.values;
Adapter.this.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
@Override
protected FilterResults performFiltering(CharSequence constraint) {
List<Contest> filteredResults = getFilteredResults(constraint);
FilterResults results = new FilterResults();
results.values = filteredResults;
return results;
}
};
}
}
}
I am getting this error at getFilteredResults
Cannot resolve method 'getFilteredResults(java.lang.CharSequence)'
I also am getting this error at mSearch.setOnQueryTextListener((SearchView.OnQueryTextListener) mContext);
FATAL EXCEPTION: main
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{...MainActivity}: java.lang.ClassCastException: ...InDraftActivity cannot be cast to android.widget.SearchView$OnQueryTextListener
java.lang.ClassCastException: ...MainActivity cannot be cast to android.widget.SearchView$OnQueryTextListener
SOLUTION
I fixed the SearchView error by implementing an OnQueryTextListener in the activity, instead of the fragment.
performFiltering needed to look like
List<Contest> filteredResults = new ArrayList<Contest>();
FilterResults results = new FilterResults();
results.values = filteredResults;
results.count = filteredResults.size();
See the marked answer.
Before you return your FilterResults, you must specify its value AND count. Currently you are just specifying the value like so...
results.values = filteredResults;
Under that line, before you return results in your performFiltering(...) method, add this line...
results.count = filteredResults.size();
EDIT: An fully working adapter with filter from a project i've done
class ContactsAdapter extends BaseAdapter implements Filterable {
private List<Contact> mData;
private List<Contact> database;
private LayoutInflater mInflater;
private Context context;
static boolean inMarkMode = false;
ContactsAdapter(List<Contact> mData, List<Contact> database, Context context) {
this.mData = mData;
this.context = context;
this.database = database;
mInflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
return mData.size();
}
/**
* Modifies the way a contact is shown in its adapter depending on
* displayChoice shared preference
*
* @param position
* of the contact in its listview
* @return <code>String</code> to display
*/
@Override
public String getItem(int position) {
switch (context.getSharedPreferences("settings",
HomeScreenActivity.MODE_PRIVATE).getInt("displayChoice", -1)) {
case 1:
return mData.get(position).getLastName() + " "
+ mData.get(position).getFirstName();
case 2:
return mData.get(position).getFirstName() + " "
+ mData.get(position).getMobileNumber();
case 3:
return mData.get(position).getLastName() + " "
+ mData.get(position).getMobileNumber();
default:
return mData.get(position).getFirstName() + " "
+ mData.get(position).getLastName();
}
}
@Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
/**
