    copied!<p>Hello, I am doing tutorials from book "Android programming tutorials", I am having problems understanding Tutorial 5. This is the main Java class:</p> <pre><code>package tiago.tutorial; import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.View; import android.view.ViewGroup; import android.view.LayoutInflater; import android.widget.ArrayAdapter; import android.widget.Button; import android.widget.EditText; import android.widget.ImageView; import android.widget.ListView; import android.widget.RadioGroup; import android.widget.TextView; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; public class Now extends Activity { List&lt;Restaurant&gt; model = new ArrayList&lt;Restaurant&gt;(); RestaurantAdapter adapter = null; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); Button save = (Button) findViewById(R.id.save); save.setOnClickListener(onSave); ListView list = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.restaurants); adapter = new RestaurantAdapter(); list.setAdapter(adapter); } private View.OnClickListener onSave = new View.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View v) { Restaurant r = new Restaurant(); EditText name = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.name); EditText address = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.addr); r.setName(name.getText().toString()); r.setAddress(address.getText().toString()); RadioGroup types = (RadioGroup) findViewById(R.id.types); switch (types.getCheckedRadioButtonId()) { case R.id.sit_down: r.setType("sit_down"); break; case R.id.take_out: r.setType("take_out"); break; case R.id.delivery: r.setType("delivery"); break; } adapter.add(r); } }; class RestaurantAdapter extends ArrayAdapter&lt;Restaurant&gt; { RestaurantAdapter() { super(Now.this, R.layout.row, model); } public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { View row = convertView; RestaurantHolder holder = null; if (row==null) { LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater(); row=inflater.inflate(R.layout.row, parent, false); holder = new RestaurantHolder(row); row.setTag(holder); } else { holder = (RestaurantHolder) row.getTag(); } holder.populateFrom(model.get(position)); return(row); } } static class RestaurantHolder { private TextView name = null; private TextView address = null; private ImageView icon = null; RestaurantHolder(View row) { name = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.title); address = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.address); icon = (ImageView) row.findViewById(R.id.icon); } void populateFrom(Restaurant r) { name.setText(r.getName()); address.setText(r.getAddress()); if (r.getType().equals("sit_down")) { icon.setImageResource(R.drawable.ball_red); } else if (r.getType().equals("take_out")) { icon.setImageResource(R.drawable.ball_yellow); } else { icon.setImageResource(R.drawable.ball_green); } } } } </code></pre> <p>My real doubt at this moment is where is \getView()\ method ever called? This is working, but in code I cannot understand when is it called. If anyone is familiar with this book, please can you provide me a fast explanation about what's happening in this code?</p> <p>Thanks :)</p>
