AutoCompleteTextView配合自定义的CursorAdapter（setAdapter()）,可以帮助我们完成查找的功能.关键就在于类CursorAdapter.

      CursorAdapter是继承自BaseAdapter并且实现了接口Filterable 。所以在我们自己定义的CursorAdapter子类中就不需要在继承Filterable，但对于JRE是1.5以下的虚拟机来说。是要重写方法getFilter()的；

      要继承CursorAdapter类。必须实现的方法有：

       1）首先执行的是public Cursor runQueryOnBackgroundThread(CharSequence constraint),constraint就是我们输入的要查询的关键字；此方法产生查询到的所有数据的cursor.并将其返回给下一个函数；

       2）接下来执行方法public View newView(Context context, Cursor cursor, ViewGroup parent)，cursor就是有第一种方法产生的.这个方法主要是产生一个个具体的承载cursor指向的数据的view类，最常见的是TextView;

       3）接下来执行方法public void bindView(View view, Context context, Cursor cursor) 。view就是第2步产生的。cursor是第一步产生的。显而易见，就是将两者进行绑定。

        但要注意的是，2和3是反复交替执行的。产生多少条数据（cursor.getcount()）就执行多少轮。还有一点容易忽视的就是在xml文件中定义AutoCompleteTextView片段中一定要加入以下代码android:completionThreshold="1"，他表示你最少要输入关键字的个数；

        下面的代码以查询联系人为例：
