AutoCompleteView in Dialog Box

I am trying to implement a AutoCompleteView inside one of my dialog boxes. I have been following some tutorials but cant seem to see when I am going wrong. When ever I click the button to launch the dialog box the app crashes with the below error. Is the AutoCompleteView correct?
