Android SearchRecentSuggestions - suggestions do not get displayed when typing in SearchView
I think the problem was, that the declaration of the SearchHistoryProviderin the Manifest.xml was wrong.
android:name=".SearchHistoryProvider"Writing .$NAME is a shorthand for $DEFAULTPACKAGE.$NAME, so if your $DEFAULTPACKAGE is 'com.myapp'und you write .SearchHistoryProvider as the android:name of your Provider, Android will simply not find it, as it is located incom.mypackage, as the first line of the following code indicates.
package com.mypackage;import android.content.SearchRecentSuggestionsProvider;public class SearchHistoryProvider extends SearchRecentSuggestionsProvider { public final static String AUTHORITY = SearchHistoryProvider.class.getName(); public final static int MODE = DATABASE_MODE_QUERIES; public SearchHistoryProvider() { setupSuggestions(AUTHORITY, MODE); }}
