This above code is implemented in my app but when try the run application that time show the error show pls help me for the output.

Answer 1

You haven't initialize the listName . It's null.

Your CustomAdapter calls super(context, resource, items); . It's not allow to pass null as items. Because ArrayAdapter.getCount() doesn't check null for items.

source code from ArrayAdapter:

public int getCount() {
    return mObjects.size();
}

Answer 2

  CustomAdpter adpter = new CustomAdpter(getApplicationContext(), R.layout.custom_audio_gridview, listName);

Instead use :

  CustomAdpter adpter = new CustomAdpter(AudioCategory.this, R.layout.custom_audio_gridview, listName);

Also implement:

getCount method inside adapter.

Answer 3

Try this... ArrayList<String> listName=new ArrayList<String>(); inside of AsyncTask method.

     private class JsonTask extends AsyncTask<String,String,String> {  
       ArrayList<String> listName=new ArrayList<String>();

            @Override
            protected void onPreExecute() {}
         @Override
            protected String doInBackground(String... params) {}
           @Override
            protected void onPostExecute(String s) {
                super.onPostExecute(s);
    }
}
