I have a dialogfragment class like this:
public class dialogfrag extends DialogFragment { @Override public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity()); // Get the layout inflater LayoutInflater inflater1 = getActivity().getLayoutInflater(); // Inflate and set the layout for the dialog // Pass null as the parent view because its going in the dialog layout builder.setView(inflater1.inflate(R.layout.from, null)) // Add action buttons .setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) { // sign in the user ... } }) .setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) { } }); return builder.create(); } } In its layout xml file from.xml it contains an autocomplete textview in it. This is code of the from.xml file
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center_horizontal"> <TextView android:id="@+id/textView1" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="50dp" android:text="From" android:gravity="center" android:background="#FFFFBB33" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" /> <AutoCompleteTextView android:id="@+id/autoCompleteTextView1d" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_marginTop="15dp" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:hint="From" > <requestFocus /> </AutoCompleteTextView> <TextView android:id="@+id/textView2" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Selected Place" android:layout_marginTop="20dp" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" /> <LinearLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginTop="20dp" android:weightSum="2" > </LinearLayout> I'm using the following code to popup the dialog fragment upon button click. So I have given like this:
Button from=(Button)rootView.findViewById(R.id.button4); from.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub DialogFragment dialog=new dialogfrag(); dialog.show(getFragmentManager(), "fromtag"); } }); Now I need to create an object of autocomplete textview and it should show me suggestions. I have an arraylist which contains the data for the arrayadapter of autocomplete text view and I have coded like this (here actv1 is the object of the autocomplete textview):
actv1.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() { @Override public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) { String filter = s.toString().toLowerCase(); listItems = new ArrayList<String>(); for (String listItem : loc) { if (listItem.toLowerCase().contains(filter)) { listItems.add(listItem); } } if (listItems.size() < 1){ Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getActivity().getApplicationContext(), "No entries contain your search parameters", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT); toast.show(); } ArrayAdapter<String> adapt=new ArrayAdapter<String>(getActivity(),android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,listItems); actv1.setAdapter(adapt); // actv1.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(getActivity(), // android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, listItems // .size())); } @Override public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) { } @Override public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) { ArrayAdapter<String> adapt=new ArrayAdapter<String>(getActivity(),android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,listItems); actv1.setAdapter(adapt); } }); But the problem is that I donot know where should I add this code properly so that when I click on the button, a dialog pops out and it contains autocompletetextview in it. While typing, it should show suggestions using the code which I have mentioned here. Can some one please help me out...
