You can use this code inside the override getView method while extending the ArrayAdapter Class

if(convertView == null){
        convertView = LayoutInflater.from(getContext()).inflate(R.layout.list_item, parent, false);
    }

R.layout.list_item is the resource to create the view based on.

the parameter "false" is false to weather to attach to the root.

Use View.inflate(context, resource, root);

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent){
    final View contentView = convertView != null ? convertView : View.inflate(context, resource, null);
}

where resource is your xml layout resource id like R.layout.list_item. Something like that.
