Implementing ListView with BaseAdapter fetching data from DB

Question

I'm trying to populate an android ListView with data from DB.

I've Created a class that extends BaseAdapter because I need to do a ListView with section headers.

So how can I implement the BaseAdapter extending class?

Thanks a lot.

you should extend a SimpleCursorAdapter instead, to help you handle the database activity.

Yeah but I want to make section headers like in this guide: link and it's implemented by BaseAdapter.

SimpleCursorAdapter is an extension of BaseAdapter

Are your section headers from the DB as well, or are they arbitrary?

If they are from the DB, try using a SimpleCursorTreeAdapterand EpandableListView.
