Implementing Own Android Cursoradapter For Search Suggestions - Unknown Exceptions

I have implemented my own cursor adapter to manually handle suggestions, so that I can get rid of the overkill method that android docs proposes. Basically what I do is setOnQueryT

Solution 1:

you have over-complicated this: there is no need for setOnQueryTextListener, just call:

myCursorAdapter.setFilterQueryProvider(this);
searchView.setSuggestionsAdapter(myCursorAdapter);

in onCreateOptionsMenu, you will need your Activity to implement FilterQueryProvider where in its runQuery you return your Cursor with suggestions

Solution 2:

Just tried it. It works like a charm. The query is working on config changes and it doesnt crash anymore. The only issue is that I am getting these exceptions in logcat everytime the config changes:
