i am using a searchfilter for serching items in gridview..,and i am calling webservice on serchfilter.,i am using multiple adapter for diffrent2 services.the problem is that when i search any value in that i get particular value,but when i serach another value.,my gridview doesnot clear and new value doesnot show.,what i do..,please help me.,thankyou...

A:

// Filter Class
    public void filter(String charText) {
        charText = charText.toLowerCase(Locale.getDefault());
        _alluserlist.clear();
        if (charText.length() == 0) {
            _alluserlist.addAll(_alluserlist);
        } else {
            for (Object bean : _alluserlist) {
                if (((AllBean) bean).getusername().toLowerCase(Locale.getDefault())
                        .contains(charText)) {
                    _alluserlist.add(bean);
                }
            }
        }
        notifyDataSetChanged();

actully i was not adding setfilter method.,by using setfilter method in my adapter.,code will work properly.and call set filter in your activity also.
