Listview with 3 value in one row

Question

I have this problem: I should create an address book and first name, surname and telephone number must be displayed on each line. I was able to take these 3 values but when they are added each value is inserted in a row after clicking the button, how can I display all 3 in a row?

Thanks for the reply in advance

Answer 1

First create a java class Person like this :

class Person{
 String firstName;
 String surName;
 String phoneNumber;
}

Instead of using ArrayAdapter<String> adapter Create custom adapter with List<Person>.

Follow below tutorial for creating custom adapter https://www.journaldev.com/10416/android-listview-with-custom-adapter-example-tutorial
