How to use notifyDataSetChanged() in thread

Question

I create a thread to update my data and try to do notifyDataSetChanged at my ListView.

private class ReceiverThread extends Thread {  @Override public void run() {      //up-to-date     mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged(); } 

The error occurs at line:

mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged(); 

Error:

12-29 16:44:39.946: E/AndroidRuntime(9026): android.view.ViewRoot$CalledFromWrongThreadException: Only the original thread that created a view hierarchy can touch its views.

How should I modify it?

Answer 1

Use runOnUiThread() method to execute the UI action from a Non-UI thread.

private class ReceiverThread extends Thread { @Override public void run() {  Activity_name.this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {          @Override         public void run() {              mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();         }     }); }
