Android Custom GridLayout with Text+Image

Question

In my application, I am trying to get the details of a set of users from a web-service. Then, I want to display the Image of each user along with their names in a GridLayout. I haven't used GridLayout before and hence tried to go through the tutorials available online, but most of them deal with just the Images. I need to display both the Image and the Text in the Grid.

How do I setup the custom GridLayout to display the Text along with the Images ?

Try this :

  public class GridActivity extends Activity implements AdapterView.OnItemClickListener {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */

Integer[] imageIDs = {
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,
        R.drawable.ic_launcher,

  };

String[] titles = {
        "First",
        "Second",
        "Third",
        "Fourth",
        "Fifth",
        "First",
        "Second",
        "Third",
        "Fourth",
        "Fifth",
        "First",
        "Second",

        "First",
        "Second",

        "Fourth",
        "Fifth",
        "First",
        "Second",
        "Third",
        "Fourth",
        "Fifth",
        "First",
        "Second",
        "Third",
        "Fourth",
        "Fifth",

 };
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);
  GridView gridView = (GridView) findViewById(R.id.grid);
    gridView.setAdapter(new ImageAdapter(this));


}

public class ImageAdapter extends BaseAdapter 
{
    private Context context;

    public ImageAdapter(Context c) 
    {
        context = c;
    }

    //---returns the number of images---
    public int getCount() {
        return imageIDs.length;
    }

    //---returns the ID of an item--- 
    public Object getItem(int position) {
        return position;
    }

    public long getItemId(int position) {
        return position;
    }

    //---returns an ImageView view---
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) 
    { 
        ImageView icon;
    icon = new ImageView(context);

    LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)             context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
    View row=inflater.inflate(R.layout.row, parent, false);
    TextView label=(TextView)row.findViewById(R.id.image_name);
    label.setText(titles[position]);
    icon=(ImageView)row.findViewById(R.id.album_image);

    icon.setImageResource(imageIDs[position]);

    return row;
    }

}

@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
        long arg3) {

    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
