13,200 Pointsproblem in in ArrayAdapter in android lesson
Hi, i'm watching the (Filling Our String Array and Creating the Adapter) lesson in (Build a Blog Reader Android App) and i'm applying this lesson on Android studio ( Mr.Ben using eclipse) the problem is , when write this code : //---- ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,mBlogPostTitle);
i got this error :
Error:(147, 52) cannot find symbol constructor ArrayAdapter(lujix.com.blogreader.MainListActivity.getBlogPostsTasks,int,java.lang.String[])
i've tried to google it and see how to fix it but i couldn't , could any one help ?
Regards

14,483 PointsHi Saeed,
This usually happens when the parameter list does not match. This is a strict match i.e. if you have a parameter list like hello (String [], int, boolean), you will have to follow the sequence and thus an int argument cannot be written in the end, but should should always come second
Apparently the constructor for ArrayAdapter does the same
ArrayAdapter(Context context, int resource, T[] objects)
// or
ArrayAdapter(Context context, int resource, int textViewResourceId, T[] objects)
Hope this helps you. However you can always paste that section of code and it will help us understand the problem a little better

13,200 Pointsi just found the solution and it's works fine
the problem : the ( private void updateList() ) method was under (private class getBlogPostsTasks extends AsyncTask<Object , Void , JSONObject>)
i moved private void updateList() out of AsyncTask and it's Work :)
the question now, why this happen ?
