Is there either A) a way to get a resource ID from a dynamic control, or B) a way to get an adapter to do without the resource id?

Based on a cursory look at the ArrayAdapter.java source, I'd say that it requires a resource ID and that there's no way around it.

However, ArrayAdapter is a fairly small class (only 512 LOC, including lots of comments), so you could probably accomplish what you want by subclassing BaseAdapter and implementing IFilterable yourself.
