java - When getView() in ArrayAdapter is called

Question

When creating a customized adapter for ListView in android, I see that I have to create a class the extends ArrayAdapter class and implements the getView(..) method.

All of that is OK, but I want to know the sequence of calling methods and executing. i.e. in which point of code the getView() is being called ?

Answer 1

getView() of ArrayAdapter is called multiple times....

1. as an when the new row is added...
2. you scroll up and scroll down the list view....
3. when the list is notfiedchanged..
