Thanks Jack,
Constraining the problem to a TextView rather than the whole row view
is a good idea, but the apparent cast problem has now moved to
holder.text = (MyUnderlinedTextView) convertView.findViewById
(R.id.text); And, changing the definition of the ViewHolder from
static class ViewHolder {
TextView text;
ImageView icon;
}
to
static class ViewHolder {
MyUnderlinedTextView text;
ImageView icon;
}
did not get rid of the apparent cast problem. Here's the current code
and stack trace. This evening I'll try changing the row's layout so
it references a MyUnderlinedTextView rather than a TextView. However
I was hoping that the seemingly simple addition of underlining
wouldn't require modification to the layout.

/**
* Demonstrates how to write an efficient list adapter. The adapter
used in this example binds
* to an ImageView and to a TextView for each row in the list.
*
* To work efficiently the adapter implemented here uses two
techniques:
* - It reuses the convertView passed to getView() to avoid inflating
View when it is not necessary
* - It uses the ViewHolder pattern to avoid calling findViewById()
when it is not necessary
*
* The ViewHolder pattern consists in storing a data structure in the
tag of the view returned by
* getView(). This data structures contains references to the views we
want to bind data to, thus
* avoiding calls to findViewById() every time getView() is invoked.
