Code Challenge Error - Customizing a ListView for the Inbox

Hi Ben Jakuben,

Just a heads up that the CodeChallenge mentioned seems to be having trouble importing classes. My answers have been correct so far, and they eventually work after pressing submit a few times, but otherwise, it is coming up with these errors:

./MessageAdapter.java:1: package android.view does not exist import android.view.View; ^ ./MessageAdapter.java:2: package android.view does not exist import android.view.ViewGroup; ^ ./MessageAdapter.java:3: package android.widget does not exist import android.widget.ArrayAdapter; ^ ./MessageAdapter.java:6: cannot find symbol symbol: class ArrayAdapter public class MessageAdapter extends ArrayAdapter { ^ ./MessageAdapter.java:15: cannot find symbol symbol : class View location: class MessageAdapter public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { ^ ./MessageAdapter.java:15: cannot find symbol symbol : class ViewGroup location: class MessageAdapter public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { ^ ./MessageAdapter.java:15: cannot find symbol symbol : class View location: class MessageAdapter public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { ^ 7 errors

On a side note, great course so far! I'm learning even more than I expected :)

Hi Krishan,

Thanks for the heads up, and sorry for any inconvenience!

We're rolling out some improvements to our code-challenge system to provide more reliablility and faster feedback, and we've been running the new system in tandem with the old system tonight for testing before taking it live.

It looks like some of the challenges may be having some trouble on the new system, so we've shut them down for now while we investigate.

Thanks again for bringing this to our attention!

Regards,

Nathan W
