Android sort ListView alphabetically

Question

So I\'m trying to sort a simple ArrayAdapter for ListView. Here\'s what I\'ve tried:

ListView lv;
String[] months = {
        \"January\",
              


        

Answer 1

To sort a list, you need to use a Comparator. You need to sort the underlying collections using a comparator that does alphabetical sorting and then notify the list to update itself.

Here's an example of doing this using an ArrayAdapter : https://stackoverflow.com/a/8920348/1369222
