Question
I have an app that reads an external database and extracts results to fill a ListView, whose row consists of a TextView and a Button. But when I changed the ordinary Button to an ImageButton, the app immediately stops after launching. My .xml for each row is as follows:

Next to the ImageButton tag, I also get a warning saying: [Accessibility] Missing contentDescription attribute on image. I'm not sure whether it's the cause.
If it's just a Button, the program works fine. I don't know why changing it to ImageButton causes the problem. Thanks in advance.
Here's the java code:

}

int resource;

super(_context, _resource, titles);
resource = _resource;
// this.context = _context;
}
@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
LinearLayout newView;
final Content content = getItem(position);
// Inflate a new view if necessary.
if (convertView == null) {
newView = new LinearLayout(getContext());
String inflater = Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE;
LayoutInflater vi = (LayoutInflater) getContext().getSystemService(inflater);
vi.inflate(resource, newView, true);
} else {
newView = (LinearLayout) convertView;
}
// Fills in the view.
TextView tv = (TextView) newView.findViewById(R.id.listText);
Button b = (Button) newView.findViewById(R.id.listButton);
tv.setText(content.title);
// Sets a listener for the button, and a tag for the button as well.
b.setTag(Integer.toString(position));

Solution
In xml layout you are using "ImageButton" but in your custom "MyAdapter" you are referencing it as "Button". Thats why you might be getting "ClassCastException".
Change Button b = (Button) newView.findViewById(R.id.listButton); to ImageButton b = (ImageButton) newView.findViewById(R.id.listButton);
