Basically, I created a custom ArrayAdapter class which could hold three TextViews inside of it.

I'm trying to create a ListView with 2 TextView . I'm not very good in Java so I usually follow many tutorials and combine them to create what I need. But I've tried to combine 2 guides together without much success... Here is the tutorial I'm trying to follow to add the second TextView : [this video] But this doesn't really help me since I have difficulty understanding how I can implement what he is doing. So far what I have understood is that I need to add my item like this : countryList.add(new EntryItem("Électron","1/6")); To do so I'll have to modify EntryItem and my class that extends BaseAdapter But I haven't been successful with that.

I'm trying to follow this tutorial [this video] I have a project that uses the Sidebar Navigation , so I have one MainActivity and multiple Fragments. At ~6:20 into the video, you can see the following code: PersonListAdapter adapter = new PersonListAdapter( this, R.layout.adapter_view_layout, peopleList); The constructor for the PersonListAdapter Class is: public PersonListAdapter(Context context, int resource, ArrayList<Attacks> objects) { super(context, resource, objects); this.mContext = mContext; mResource = resource; } The problem lies with Context. If I use the word " this ", there is a red line. If I replace "this" with " getActivity() ", there is no red line, but the app crashes when I r
