Showing web service's input values in autocompletetextview in android

I am consuming one web service right now.This web service will return some string values if i give proper input values.Here my requirement is, i need to show these input values in AutoCompleteTextView in android.

For example:

Assume my web service is having the input values such as, "AX","AB","B","CC","CX","D" and so on.Here i need to show these input values in AutocompleteTextView in android.

NOTE: I don't want to do hard-code these input values in string format in AutoCompleteTextView, because these input values will be updated day by day.So that there will be no meaning of hard-codding it,is it not?

suggestions please!

thanks for your precious time!..

This is the way you can get data from your service in the form of string data.

public String getDataFromService()
{
    try {
        HttpClient httpClient=new DefaultHttpClient();
        HttpGet httpGet=new HttpGet(yourserviceURLgoeshere);
        HttpResponse httpResponse=httpClient.execute(httpGet);
        HttpEntity entity = httpResponse.getEntity();
        is=entity.getContent();
    } catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    return parseExecutedRequest();
}

private String parseExecutedRequest()
{
    try {
        BufferedReader bufferedReader=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is,"iso-8859-1"),8);
        StringBuilder stringBuilder=new StringBuilder();
        String line=null;

        while((line=bufferedReader.readLine())!=null)
        {
            stringBuilder.append(line+ "\n");
        }

        is.close();
        result=stringBuilder.toString();
    } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    return result;
}

You have to create a ArrayList and fill the data you get form web service and set adapter to the AutoCompleteTextView with the ArrayList you have created.
