Using page adapter without fragments

Is it possible to use ViewPager without fragments? All examples i could find load several fragments to the ViewPager.

I want to use it similarly to a ListView. I would like to create a custom adapter that will inflate a layout according to the position the pager is in.

if it's possible can anyone point me to an example for that ?
