Google places auto completed in android example

          Here,i have written sample coding for getting the places autocompleted text in android.by using this you can get the places name from your text.

First,you have to create the AutoCompleteTextView.

AutoCompleteTextView ed; ed=(AutoCompleteTextView)findViewById(R.id.autoCompleteTextView1);

Then you have to create the Arraylist to store the suggest names.and 
Then ,create TextWatcher() to detect the text changes.

ArrayList names; names=new ArrayList<String>(); ed.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() { public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {} public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) { } public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) { } });

Then,Create URL from your input text

search_text= ed.getText().toString().split(","); url="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/autocomplete/json?input="+search_text[0]+"&sensor=true&key=YOUR BROWSER KEY";

Then,Parse the value from the JSON/XML webservice.

names=new ArrayList<String>(); Log.d("URL",url); paserdata parse=new paserdata(); parse.execute();

Finally,set the values to the AutoCompleteTextView adapter,

adp=newArrayAdapter<String>(getApplicationContext(),android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1s); ed.setAdapter(adp);
