Android Hello Gallery does not wotk

Question

I follow hello gallery tutorial but does not work. It displays blank screen.

I've upload the sample images in drawable folder.

Here is the main.xml code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Gallery xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/gallery"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

The attr.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<declare-styleable name="HelloGallery">
    <attr name="android:galleryItemBackground" />
</declare-styleable>
</resources>

The Activity class :

public class GalleryActivity extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    Gallery gallery = (Gallery) findViewById(R.id.gallery);
    gallery.setAdapter(new ImageAdapter(this));

    gallery.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View v,
                int position, long id) {

            Toast.makeText(GalleryActivity.this, "" + position,
                    Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }

    });
  }
}

The ImageAdapter class :

public class ImageAdapter extends BaseAdapter {

int mGalleryItemBackground;
Context mContext;

private Integer[] mImageIds = { R.drawable.sample_0,
        R.drawable.sample_1, R.drawable.sample_2, R.drawable.sample_3,
        R.drawable.sample_4, R.drawable.sample_5, R.drawable.sample_6,
        R.drawable.sample_7 };

public ImageAdapter(Context context) {

    mContext = context;

    TypedArray attr = mContext
            .obtainStyledAttributes(R.styleable.HelloGallery);
    mGalleryItemBackground = attr.getResourceId(
            R.styleable.HelloGallery_android_galleryItemBackground, 0);
    attr.recycle();

  }

public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

    ImageView imageView = new ImageView(mContext);
    imageView.setImageResource(mImageIds[position]);
    imageView.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(150, 100));
    imageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
    imageView.setBackgroundResource(mGalleryItemBackground);

    return imageView;
  }
}

When I debug the code, I noticed that the method getView never been executed. Pleas help.

Thanks

Where is getCount() method in Adapter class ?? in code you posted here. You didn't copied the example code properly. Please do it first.
