 autoCompleteTextView=findViewById(R.id.autoCompleteTextViewID);
employeeNames  = new ArrayList<String>();

// getdata & store in dataList

dataAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(getApplicationContext(), android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, employeeNames );
dataAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
autoCompleteTextView.setThreshold(1);
autoCompleteTextView.setAdapter(dataAdapter);

autoCompleteTextView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {

        String selectedStr  = parent.getItemAtPosition(position).toString();

    }
});
