How to refresh a ListView to requery its cursor to repopulate its data and its views

Question

I have a ListView which uses a CursorAdatper as its adapter. I would like to have the list view to

• requery its data
• refresh its view once the requery

Answer 1

Calling requery() on a database or content provider Cursor attached to ListView via a CursorAdapter automatically refreshes the list (your second scenario above). You can see some examples of this. If that is not working for you, there may be some bug in your ContentProvider or adapter.
