NumberFormatException at MatrixCursor column for searching in maps from database

Question

I'm using searching in my map search from database content using MatrixCursor. I have a NumberFormatException in Android SDK version 2.2. In my declaration I did:

private static final String[] COLUMNS = {

   _ID, // must include this column
   SearchManager.SUGGEST_COLUMN_TEXT_1,
   SearchManager.SUGGEST_COLUMN_INTENT_DATA };

and I also created the object for MatrixCursor that has:

MatrixCursor cursor = new MatrixCursor(COLUMNS);
cursor.addRow(columnValuesOfQuery(query, s));

Here is the exception I'm getting:

10-22 23:11:33.734: ERROR/SuggestionsAdapter(456): error changing cursor and caching columns
10-22 23:11:33.734: ERROR/SuggestionsAdapter(456): java.lang.NumberFormatException:

10-22 23:11:33.734: ERROR/SuggestionsAdapter(456):     at android.widget.CursorAdapter.getItemId(CursorAdapter.java:156)

Why I'm getting this exception and how can I fix it?

OK, sounds similar to the exception retrived when using geocoder on the emulator in SDK 8. my guess its another emulator bug related to the geocoder clas try this on a real device, or lower the SDK version on the emulator - Should do the trick.
