ListView refresh

Question

I have a question. I have a sqlite database in my project. I am select data in database and transfer the custom listview. My Custom ListView has got a delete button. When I press the button, my CostumListView class is delete this row. But Listview is the same. I want to make refresh listview after delete process.

This is my LAUNCHER Class (TaskList.java):

package com.nano.tasklist;
import java.text.ParseException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Date;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.content.ContentValues;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class TaskList extends Activity {

ArrayList<CategoryInfo> CategoryList;

TaskListDatabase DatabaseActivity;

private CategoryAdapter CategoryAdapter = null;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_task_list);

    DatabaseActivity = new TaskListDatabase(this);

    CategoryInsert("School","21.02.2012","YES");
    CategoryInsert("House","21.02.2012","NO");
    CategoryInsert("Park","21.02.2012","YES");

    ListView lvCategories = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.lvCategories);

    CategoryList = new ArrayList<CategoryInfo>();

    CategoryAdapter = new CategoryAdapter(this, R.layout.category_row, CategoryList);
    lvCategories.setAdapter(this.CategoryAdapter);

    CategorySelect();
}

public void CategorySelect(){
    String[] Column = {"ID","Category","AddDate","Completed"};

    Cursor Result = null;

    try{
        SQLiteDatabase Database = DatabaseActivity.getReadableDatabase();

        Result = Database.query("Category", Column, null, null, null, null, null);

        startManagingCursor(Result);

        while(Result.moveToNext()){
            CategoryInfo Info = new CategoryInfo();

            CategoryList = new ArrayList<CategoryInfo>();

            Info.setID(Result.getString(Result.getColumnIndex("ID")));
            Info.setCategory(Result.getString(Result.getColumnIndex("Category")));
            Info.setAddDate(Result.getString(Result.getColumnIndex("AddDate")));
            Info.setCompleted(Result.getString(Result.getColumnIndex("Completed")));

            CategoryList.add(Info);

            if(CategoryList != null && CategoryList.size() > 0){
                CategoryAdapter.add(CategoryList.get(0));
                CategoryAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
            }
        }
    } catch (SQLiteException Error) {
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Error (CategorySelect) : " + Error.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

        Result = null;
    }
}

public boolean CategoryInsert(String Category, String AddDate, String Completed){
    boolean Result;

    try{
        SQLiteDatabase Database = DatabaseActivity.getWritableDatabase();

        ContentValues Values = new ContentValues();

        Values.put("Category", Category);
        Values.put("AddDate", AddDate);
        Values.put("Completed", Completed);

        Database.insert("Category", null, Values);

        Result = true;
    } catch (SQLiteException Error) {
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Error (CategoryInsert) : " + Error.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

        Result = false;
    }

    return Result;
}

        Toast.makeText(ActivityContext, "Error (CategoryDelete) : " + Error.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }
}

}

This is my DatabaseClass (TaskListDatabase.java)

package com.nano.tasklist;

import android.content.Context;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;

public class TaskListDatabase extends SQLiteOpenHelper{

private static final String DatabaseName = "TaskList";
private static final int DatabaseVersion = 1;
private static final String Category = "Category";
private static final String Tasks = "Tasks";

private static final String CreateCategoryTable = "CREATE TABLE " + Category + " (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, Category TEXT, AddDate TEXT, Completed TEXT);";
private static final String CreateTaskTable = "CREATE TABLE " + Tasks + " (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, Category TEXT, Task TEXT, AddDate TEXT, StartDate TEXT, FinishDate TEXT, Completed TEXT);";

public TaskListDatabase(Context Context){
    super(Context,DatabaseName,null,DatabaseVersion);
}

@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase Database) {
    Database.execSQL(CreateCategoryTable);
    Database.execSQL(CreateTaskTable);
}

@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase Database, int OldVersion, int NewVersion) {
    Database.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + DatabaseName);
    onCreate(Database);
}
}

And this is my project : https://rapidshare.com/files/578334898/Task%20List.rar

After you delete the row, call

categoryAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();

method to refresh the listView.

On Delete button: Add Line:-

            adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();//or
            list.destroyDrawingCache();//both line

btnDeleteCategory.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
        public void onClick(View v) {
            TaskList Process = new TaskList();
            Process.Delete(btnDeleteCategory, Item.getID());
            this.CategoryAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged(); // refresh list view
        }
    });

You are doing this for delete record.

btnDeleteCategory.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
            public void onClick(View v) {
                TaskList Process = new TaskList();
                Process.Delete(btnDeleteCategory, Item.getID());
            }
        });

Your Mistake.

1)TaskList is your launcher Activity and I can't find any Delete() method in this class and call it in listener.
2)May be some code of query for delete in this method Delete()
3)You didn't refresh list using `categoryAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();`

Solution:

1)Make method for delete(delete query) in `TaskListDatabase.java`
2)You display data from `ArrayList<CategoryInfo> Items;` so You also remove that data from this ArrayList.
3)Use `categoryAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();` for refresh list

Try this code...

btnDeleteCategory.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
            public void onClick(View v) {
                TaskListDatabase db = new TaskListDatabase();
                db.delete();
                Items.remove(position);
                notifyDataSetChanged();
            }
        });
