Display address from Geocoder.getFromLocationName() in a ListView

The last post show how to Get full address from result of getFromLocationName(). In this example show you how to show it in a ListView, instead of showing in TextView.

package com.AndroidgetFromLocationName;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.List;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.location.Address;
import android.location.Geocoder;

import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class AndroidgetFromLocationNameActivity extends Activity {

EditText searchText;
Button searchButton;
ListView listviewResult;

Geocoder myGeocoder;
final static int MAX_RESULT = 10;
final static String DEFAULT_SEARCH = "谷歌";

  /** Called when the activity is first created. */
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setContentView(R.layout.main);
      searchText = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.searchtext);
      searchText.setText(DEFAULT_SEARCH);
   searchButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.searchbutton);
   listviewResult = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.listviewresult);
  
   searchButton.setOnClickListener(searchButtonOnClickListener);
  
   myGeocoder = new Geocoder(this);
  
   //for API Level 9 or higher
   if (!Geocoder.isPresent()){
    Toast.makeText(AndroidgetFromLocationNameActivity.this,
    "Sorry! Geocoder service not Present.",
    Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
   }
  }

  Button.OnClickListener searchButtonOnClickListener
  = new Button.OnClickListener(){

 @Override
 public void onClick(View arg0) {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub
  String searchString = searchText.getText().toString();
  searchFromLocationName(searchString);
 }};

private void searchFromLocationName(String name){
 try {
  List<Address> result
  = myGeocoder.getFromLocationName(name, MAX_RESULT);
 
  if ((result == null)||(result.isEmpty())){
   Toast.makeText(AndroidgetFromLocationNameActivity.this,
     "No matches were found or there is no backend service!",
     Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
  }else{

   MyArrayAdapter adapter = new MyArrayAdapter(this,
         android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, result);
   listviewResult.setAdapter(adapter);
  
   Toast.makeText(AndroidgetFromLocationNameActivity.this,
     "Finished!",
     Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
  }

 
 } catch (IOException e) {
  // TODO Auto-generated catch block
  e.printStackTrace();
  Toast.makeText(AndroidgetFromLocationNameActivity.this,
    "The network is unavailable or any other I/O problem occurs!",
    Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
 }
}

public class MyArrayAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Address> {
 Context mycontext;
 public MyArrayAdapter(Context context, int textViewResourceId,
   List<Address> objects) {
  super(context, textViewResourceId, objects);
  // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
  mycontext = context;
 }

 @Override
 public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub
 
  int maxAddressLineIndex = getItem(position).getMaxAddressLineIndex();
  String addressLine = "";
 
  for (int j = 0; j <= maxAddressLineIndex; j++){
   addressLine += getItem(position).getAddressLine(j) + ",";
  }
 
  TextView rowAddress = new TextView(mycontext);
  rowAddress.setText(addressLine);
 
  return rowAddress;

 }

}
