I currently have a custom listview in Android that I generate by overriding the getView method of ArrayAdapter. It works perfectly. However, in certain cases I need to “skip” an item in the list. I tried returning null, but that just gives a nullpointer error. So my question is, what can I return in getView, so that no new item is added to the list?
You could use a custom Filter.
If you have a custom ArrayAdapter you can implement a custom filter and it will filter your list by a certain criteria and then those items won’t even show and won’t call getView to begin with.
If this sounds like it would work for you and want some more information or example code let me know.
