How to add two base adapters to listView in android? I need two adapters, one is for showing phonebook contact and another is for showing application registered contact, i was trying to use Merge adapter, but its not working properly, can anyone help me to solve this issue.

Answer 1

hmm, this should be easy.

1) You can create one adapter with updateData method inside, and then just call it from your activity and then adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();.

For example: Put this in your adapter:

public void updateData(ArrayList<Object> newData)
{
 this.data = newData;
}

Then, in your activity you call this:

  myAdapter.updateData(data);
  myAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();

2) Create two adapters with different data.

To set the adapter just call:

listView.setAdapter(adapter1);

And second one:

listView.setAdapter(adapter2);
