Question

I got this piece of code that creates new TextView, then adds it to ArrayList<View> and when it is finished adding TextViews to Array it sets adds that Array into ListView. But somehow my ListView is appearing empty. Any idea what am I doing wrong?

Here is the code:

ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView1);
ArrayList<View> textvs = new ArrayList<View>();
for (int i=0; i<10;i++) {
TextView tv = new TextView(MainActivity.this);
tv.setText(""+i);
textvs.add(tv);
}
lv.addTouchables(portit); // lv is my listview

You should use ArrayAdapter. You did this the wrong way. Here is a sample:

public class ArrayAdapterDemo extends ListActivity {
   String[] items = { "this", "is", "a", "really", "silly", "list" };
   @Override
   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
       super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
       setContentView(R.layout.main);
       setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
         android.R.layout.simple_expandable_list_item_1,
         items)); 
   }
