SectionedList crash when attempting to fastscroll about android-section-list

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello. I do not know what kind of error you have, but there are certain things 
you have to do to make index appear - for example described here: 
http://twistbyte.com/tutorial/android-listview-with-fast-scroll-and-section-inde
x . Probably you have not implemented Index interface.

Hi.  Thanks for your reply.  I have read and successfully ran the sample code 
from the twistbyte.com tutorial link you provided.  I also went ahead and 
implemented the SectionIndexer as you suggested.  However,  I am getting a 
java.lang.ClassCastException: pl.polidea.sectionList.SectionList Adapter error. 
 The error points to the FastScroller.java file, line 286.      

My issue seems to be similar to the one filed here:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3522

Or perhaps, I did something silly.

I had similiar problem and fixed in other library by simply extending the 
adapter from BaseAdapter. It's fixed now, please update the code.

Thank you very much. I updated the code and now have it working. I appreciate 
your prompt response.

Hi, I have an additional questions.  I have successfully implemented the 
sectionindexer but I have run into a similar issue as described in the link 
below when turning on fastscroll:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3225092/fast-scroll-display-problem-with-list
adapter-and-sectionindexer

After applying what the above link suggests, the first Sectionheader never 
changes its text.  Or more accurately, it does not become invisible when 
needed.  After further debugging, I have confirmed that the 
makeSectionInvisibleIfFirstInList() function does not get called.  As an FYI in 
addition to making the SectionListAdapter implement 
CustomFastScrollView.SectionIndexer, i also had to modify the layout xml file 
to look like this:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" 
    android:id="@+id/listView"
    android:orientation="vertical" 
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    <pl.polidea.sectionedlist.CustomFastScrollView 
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent" 
            android:id="@+id/fast_scroll_view">
       <pl.polidea.sectionedlist.SectionListView 
        android:id="@+id/section_list_view" 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"

        android:clickable="true"
        >
        </pl.polidea.sectionedlist.SectionListView>
        <TextView android:id="@android:id/empty"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="" />
    </pl.polidea.sectionedlist.CustomFastScrollView>   

</FrameLayout>

Any thoughts as to why makeSectionInvisibleIfFirstInList() is not getting 
called?
Please pardon me if my question is rather elementary.  Have not been doing 
Android for long.  

Many thanks.
