BaseAdapter.GetView method is not called even if the list count is greater than 0

Question

public override View GetView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)

This method is not called even if the count is greater than zero.

I want to know the exact behavior of GridView and BaseAdapter.

I tried as much as possible but the GetView method is not triggered.

Code Snippet:

    internal class SymbolAdapter : BaseAdapter
    {

        private object[] m_items;
        internal SymbolAdapter(Context context, Object[] items) : base()
        {
            this.context = context;
            m_items = items;
        }

        public override int Count
        {
            get
            {
                return m_items.Count;
            }
        }

        public override Java.Lang.Object GetItem(int position)
        {
            return null;
        }

        public override long GetItemId(int position)
        {
            return 0;
        }

        public override View GetView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
        {
            View view = null;
            object item = m_items[position];
            if (convertView == null)
            {
                                    ImageView imageView = new ImageView(context);
                imageView.LayoutParameters = new AbsListView.LayoutParams(85, 85);
                imageView.SetScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CenterCrop);
                imageView.SetPadding(8, 8, 8, 8);
                view = imageView;
            }
            else
                view = convertView;
            return view;
        }
    }

Please help me.

The issue resolved when i tried to add the view prior to creating the instance for BaseAdapter to the Adapter property of the GridView.

Thanks,
