copied!<p><strong>Your getView() code needs to go into a class that extends BaseAdapter or one of its subclasses.</strong> </p> <p>One way to do this is to create a private class within your MyDashboardActivity. Here's a quick example below (some additional code will be required). You'll probably also want a custom object to associate all the things you want to display in one list item. Instead of multiple arrays, have one array of a custom type that has properties for each value you are tracking.</p> <p>One more thing: your four TextViews should go into their own layout file (see list_item.xml <a href="http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-listview.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>). That item layout file gets hooked up through the constructor of the custom adapter (I added a comment in the code below to highlight this).</p> <pre><code>protected CustomAdapter mAdapter; public class MyDashboardActivity extends Activity { @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.mydashboard); final LayoutInflater mInflater = LayoutInflater.from(this); mListView = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.dashboardList); mAdapter = new CustomAdapter(this, <array to be adapted>); mListView.setAdapter(mAdapter); } private class CustomAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> { protected Context mContext; protected ArrayList<String> mItems; public CustomAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<String> items) { super(context, R.layout.custom_list_item, items); // Use a custom layout file mContext = context; mItems = items; } public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { System.out.println("enters"); if(convertView == null){ convertView = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.mydashboard,null); } // You'll need to use the mItems array to populate these... ((TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.project)).setText(project[position]); ((TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.work_request)).setText(workRequests[position]); ((TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.start_date)).setText(startDate[position]); ((TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.status)).setText(status[position]); return convertView; } } } </code></pre>
