Android: how to refresh ListView contents?

by

To those still having problems, I solved it this way:

List<Item> newItems = databaseHandler.getItems();
ListArrayAdapter.clear();
ListArrayAdapter.addAll(newItems);
ListArrayAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
databaseHandler.close();

I first cleared the data from the adapter, then added the new collection of items, and only then set notifyDataSetChanged();
This was not clear for me at first, so I wanted to point this out. Take note that without calling notifyDataSetChanged() the view won’t be updated.
