Java – Causes the ArrayAdapterItemCategory to accept LinkedHashSet instead of ArrayList

In my application, I use LinkhedHashSet instead of ArrayList to hold ItemCategory objects (POJOs with name and id attributes)
Now I want to load this LinkedHashSet in Spinned without having to convert the LinkedHashsSet to an ArrayList beforehand. Is it possible? Here is my code

public static void loadSpinnerData(Context context, ArrayList<ItemCategory> array, Spinner spinner) {

 Creating adapter for spinner
    ArrayAdapter<ItemCategory> dataAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<ItemCategory>(context,
            R.drawable.simple_spinner_item, array);

 Drop down layout style - list view with radio button
    dataAdapter
            .setDropDownViewResource(R.drawable.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);

 Attaching data adapter to spinner
    spinner.setAdapter(dataAdapter);
}

By the way, I overridden the toString() method in the ItemCategory object to return the category name:

public class ItemCategory {

private int id;
    private String name;

public int getId() {
        return id;
    }

public void setId(int id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

@Override
    public String toString() {
        return this.name;
    }

}

Do not use the ArrayAdapter. Instead, start with BaseAdapter extension. You will have to replicate some of the behavior of the ArrayAdapter, but you will not be hindered by its limitations.
