Android Question SearchView an doEvents

[David Meier]

Hi
I use searchview but realized that it uses the DoEvents command. And this is now deprecated. Is there an update for the searchview class?

Regards

It can still be used anyway.

The Class Source is available. You can change it if you want.

I've uploaded a new version without it: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...ve-to-autocompleteedittext.19379/#post-111667

Even with 10,000 the index is built quite fast so the simple synchronous approach works good enough. It is possible to add a semi-asynchronous option if it is too slow.

1. The only thing I noticed in the new version of SearchView class is the removal of this line from the class. What else is changed?

If i Mod100 = 0 Then DoEvents

2. Since there are over 7000 records in the text file, it does not start showing the list until you type the 2nd letter. Example: When you type p, you do not see anything, but the list start appearing when you type the second letter : po, even with a faster processor. . No memory time out. Is that by design or 7000 records indexed is too much?
3. I tried a few months ago to run the original version (the one without the customview in the designer) using this below nice feature:

'Don't forget to add the SetActivityAttribute in the manifest editor (already added in this example)
Private Sub IME_HeightChanged (NewHeight As Int, OldHeight As Int)
    SearchView1.ActivityHeightChanged(NewHeight)
End Sub

But never was successful, unless I used the SearchView created in the designer.

1. The progress dialog was also removed.
2. Change MIN_LIMIT in the class globals to 1. It should still be fast.
3. This question is not related to this thread.

Dear Erel
Thank you so much for this! I am happy that you changed it so I am sure, it is a quality solution.
