That's because it varies by adapter type. You would call requery() on the underlying Cursor of a CursorAdapter, for example. > Will the old one be destroyed with the > call for a new Adapter is made like this? > > // lv is the ListView > lv.setAdapter( new MyCustomAdapter(this)); The old adapter will get garbage-collected as soon as all references to it are released. Android should not be holding onto your former adapter instance after your call shown above, so if you're not holding onto it, it should go away shortly. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Warescription: Three Android Books, Plus Updates, $35/Year -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
