I am creating an application where in i need to have endless scrolling listview. I dnt want to use any library in my application. I have seen some examples on line that help in achieving such listview,but my doubt is how can i have an endless listview when my data are coming from server and are getting parsed in the Asynctask. How can i load 10 items at a time from my asynctask on scroll? I want to know to implement a endless listview on asyntask. Do i call my asynctask in the onScroll() or not???
