您可以在官方ApiDemos中查看这个示例。它展示了如何扩展BaseAdapter并将其应用到ListView。在此之后，只需查看BaseAdapter的引用，并尝试理解每个方法做什么(包括继承的方法)以及何时/如何使用它。

另外，谷歌是你的朋友:)。

BaseAdapter是listview最好的自定义适配器。

Class MyAdapter extends BaseAdapter{}

它有许多函数，如getCount()， getView()等。

一个更紧凑的自定义适配器的例子(使用列表数组作为我的数据):

class MyAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Object> {
    public ArrayAdapter(Context context, List<MyObject> objectList) {
        super(context, R.layout.my_list_item, R.id.textViewTitle, objectList.toArray());
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
        View row = super.getView(position, convertView, parent);
        TextView title = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.textViewTitle);
        ImageView icon = (ImageView) row.findViewById(R.id.imageViewAccessory);
        MyObject obj = (MyObject) getItem(position);
        icon.setImageBitmap( ... );
        title.setText(obj.name);
        return row;
    }
}

下面是如何使用它:

List<MyObject> objectList = ...
MyAdapter adapter = new MyAdapter(this.getActivity(), objectList);
listView.setAdapter(adapter);

数据模型

public class DataModel {
    String name;
    String type;
    String version_number;
    String feature;

    public DataModel(String name, String type, String version_number, String feature ) {
        this.name=name;
        this.type=type;
        this.version_number=version_number;
        this.feature=feature;

    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public String getType() {
        return type;
    }

    public String getVersion_number() {
        return version_number;
    }

    public String getFeature() {
        return feature;
    }    
}

数组适配器

public class CustomAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<DataModel> implements View.OnClickListener{
    private ArrayList<DataModel> dataSet;
    Context mContext;

    // View lookup cache
    private static class ViewHolder {
        TextView txtName;
        TextView txtType;
        TextView txtVersion;
        ImageView info;
    }

    public CustomAdapter(ArrayList<DataModel> data, Context context) {
        super(context, R.layout.row_item, data);
        this.dataSet = data;
        this.mContext=context;

    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {

        int position=(Integer) v.getTag();
        Object object= getItem(position);
        DataModel dataModel=(DataModel)object;

        switch (v.getId())
        {
            case R.id.item_info:
                Snackbar.make(v, "Release date " +dataModel.getFeature(), Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
                        .setAction("No action", null).show();
                break;
        }
    }

    private int lastPosition = -1;

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
        // Get the data item for this position
        DataModel dataModel = getItem(position);
        // Check if an existing view is being reused, otherwise inflate the view
        ViewHolder viewHolder; // view lookup cache stored in tag

        final View result;

        if (convertView == null) {

            viewHolder = new ViewHolder();
            LayoutInflater inflater = LayoutInflater.from(getContext());
            convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row_item, parent, false);
            viewHolder.txtName = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.name);
            viewHolder.txtType = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.type);
            viewHolder.txtVersion = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.version_number);
            viewHolder.info = (ImageView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.item_info);

            result=convertView;

            convertView.setTag(viewHolder);
        } else {
            viewHolder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
            result=convertView;
        }

        Animation animation = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(mContext, (position > lastPosition) ? R.anim.up_from_bottom : R.anim.down_from_top);
        result.startAnimation(animation);
        lastPosition = position;

        viewHolder.txtName.setText(dataModel.getName());
        viewHolder.txtType.setText(dataModel.getType());
        viewHolder.txtVersion.setText(dataModel.getVersion_number());
        viewHolder.info.setOnClickListener(this);
        viewHolder.info.setTag(position);
        // Return the completed view to render on screen
        return convertView;
    }
}

谷歌有一个名为EfficientAdapter的示例，在我看来，它是如何实现自定义适配器的最佳简单示例。http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/view/List14.html @CommonsWare很好地解释了上面例子中使用的模式 http://commonsware.com/Android/excerpt.pdf

public class CustomAdapter extends BaseAdapter{

    ArrayList<BookPojo> data;
    Context ctx;
    int index=0;

    public CustomAdapter(ArrayList<BookPojo> data, Context ctx) {
        super();
        this.data = data;
        this.ctx = ctx;
    }

    @Override
    public int getCount() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return data.size();
    }

    @Override
    public Object getItem(int position) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return data.get(position);
    }

    @Override
    public long getItemId(int position) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return position;
    }

    @Override

            LayoutInflater vi=LayoutInflater.from(ctx);
            v=vi.inflate(R.layout.messgeview,null);

        }

        tvtitle.setText(bpj.title);
        tvauthor.setText(bpj.author);
