Question

setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(getApplicationContext(),
                android.R.la         


        

Answer 1

Another simplest way is to create a layout file containing the textview you want with textSize, textStyle, color etc preferred by you and then use it with the ArrayAdapter.

e.g. mytextview.xml

and then use it with your ArrayAdapter as usual like

ListView lst = new ListView(context);
String[] arr = {"Item 1","Item 2"};
ArrayAdapter ad = new ArrayAdapter(context,R.layout.mytextview,arr);
lst.setAdapter(ad);

This way you won't need to create a custom adapter for it.
