Im working with FTP4J java api and android in eclipse.

I am a newbie.

I am trying to populate a ListView with some files of the working directory on an ftp server.

    FTPClient client;
        FTPFile[] list;

        client.connect("100.100.100.100");
        client.login(usernamestring, passwordstring);
        list = client.list();               //this line returns the files in the current directory

        String lv_arr[]={list[0].getname(),list[1].getname(),list[2].getname()};    //this is where the program crashes

        final ListView filelist = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.ListView01);

        filelist.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(ftpclientbasic.this,
                android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, lv_arr));



The program always crashes when I try to populate the string array with some elements of the FTPFile (list) object.

If i populate the string array manually with String lv_arr[]={"example","example"} it works fine, i see "example example" in the list view. Where am i going wrong?
