Better:

private class taskDoSomething extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, List<Order>>  { 

@Override 
protected List<Order> doInBackground(Void... params) { 

    Log.i("LOGGER", "Starting...doInBackground loadList"); 

    List<Order> orders = new ArrayList<Order>();


    Order o1 = new Order();
    o1.setOrderName("songs_array[0]");
    o1.setOrderStatus("Pending");
    o1.setQuantity(111);
    orders.add(o1);

    return orders; 
} 

@Override 
protected void onPostExecute(List<Order> result) { 
    m_orders.clear();
    m_orders.addAll(result); 
    m_adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
} 

}
