app crashes when loading custom list layout
<p>I am trying to create a custom list layout.  Here is the method that does it:</p>

<pre><code>private void setUpList() {
    String[] items = {"item 1" , "item 2", "item 3","item 4" , "item 5", "item 6"};
    ArrayAdapter arrayadp = new ArrayAdapter(this, R.layout.list_layout, items);
    setListAdapter(arrayadp);       
}
</code></pre>

<p>and here is list_layout.xml</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
&lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" 
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"&gt;
&lt;TextView android:layout_width="match_parent"
          android:layout_height="match_parent" 
&lt;/LinearLayout&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>If I change R.layout.list_layout to android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1 it works fine but I need to use a custom one.  How do i do this without having the app crash.</p>

<p>Here is the crash log</p>
