[FIXED] How to change the order of the messages from JSON?

Issue

I have such JSON response with messages from the server:

response: {
count: 74246,
items: [{
  id: 343194,
  body: 'Message 3',
  user_id: 123,
  from_id: 123,
  date: 1436513626,
  read_state: 1,
  out: 0
}, {
  id: 343190,
  body: 'Message 2',
  user_id: 123,
  from_id: 321,
  date: 1436513502,
  read_state: 1,
  out: 1
}, {
  id: 343187,
  body: 'Message 1',
  user_id: 123,
  from_id: 123,
  date: 1436513198,
  read_state: 1,
  out: 0
}]
}

I put it into the listview and I have such order:

• Message 3
• Message 2
• Message 1

But I want to get the next order:

• Message 1
• Message 2
• Message 3

So it means that the newest messages should be from the bottom to top. Probably I should build the listview from the bottom? But how? What should I do to achieve this? And sorry for my English :)

Solution

Set reverse order on ArrayList:

ArrayList<Your_Model> mList = new ArrayList<Your_Model>();

Set data in mList from JSON:

Whenever you want to get List on reverse order, put below code.

Collections.reverse(mList);

Hope it will help you.
