Update ListView in the main thread from another thread

Question

I have a separate thread running to get data from the internet. After that, I would like to update the ListView in the main thread by calling adapter.notifyDataSetChanged().

Answer 1

Or, post a message to the listview's message queue (which would execute on the UI thread):

list.post(new Runnable() {                  
    @Override
    public void run() {
       adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();

    }
});
