Quick Start I - InstantAdapter

Step 1 - Annotate methods in your model

class Book {
    ...

    @InstantText(viewId = R.id.title)
    public String getTitle() {
         return title;
    }

    @InstantText(viewId = R.id.author, formatString = "Author: %s")
    public String getAuthor() {
         return author;
    }
}

Step 2 - Instantiate and set an InstantAdapter to your ListView

InstantAdapter<Book> bookAdapter = new InstantAdapter<Book>(context, R.layout.book_item, Book.class, books);
bookListView.setAdapter(bookAdapter);

Quick Start II - InstantCursorAdapter

Step 1 - Annotate methods in your model

Step 2 - Extend InstantCursorAdapter<T>

class BookCursorAdapter extends InstantCursorAdapter<Book> {

    public BookCursorAdapter(Context context, Cursor cursor) {
        super(context, R.layout.book_item, Book.class, cursor);
    }

    @Override
    public Book getInstance(Cursor cursor) {
        String title = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("title"));
        String author = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("author"));
        return new Book(title, author);
    }
}

Step 3 - Instantiate and set an InstantCursorAdapter to your ListView

BookCursorAdapter bookCursorAdapter = new BookCursorAdapter(this, booksCursor);
bookListView.setAdapter(bookCursorAdapter);
