The getView() method of ArrayAdapter is not getting called?

You just forgot to provide the data to the constructor and then make the correct call within the constructor.

You are not supplying any data to it currently. If you still want to see whats happening in the list, override the getCount() function.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
