android - Custom Spinner Adapter

Question

I wanted to apply a custom font to my spinner. The only way i found out is that to create a custom adapter. Here is my code

    private class CustomAdapter extends ArrayAdapter {

    private Context context;
    private List<CharSequence> itemList;
    public CustomAdapter(Context context, int textViewResourceId,List<CharSequence> itemList) {

        super(context, textViewResourceId);
        this.context=context;
        this.itemList=itemList;
    }

    public TextView getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        TextView v = (TextView) super
                .getView(position, convertView, parent);
        Typeface myTypeFace = Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),
                "fonts/gilsanslight.otf");
        v.setTypeface(myTypeFace);
        v.setText(itemList.get(position));
        return v;
    }

    public TextView getDropDownView(int position, View convertView,
            ViewGroup parent) {

        TextView v = (TextView) super
                .getView(position, convertView, parent);
        Typeface myTypeFace = Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),
                "fonts/gilsanslight.otf");
        v.setTypeface(myTypeFace);
        v.setText(itemList.get(position));
        return v;
    }

}

Then i use

List<CharSequence> itemList = new ArrayList<CharSequence>(
            Arrays.asList(items));

    mySpinnerArrayAdapter = new   CustomAdapter(context,android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item,itemList); 
    spinner.setAdapter(mySpinnerArrayAdapter);

After doing this, my adapter is empty. Can anyone please help me ? The items contains a list of countries.

Kind Regards,

Try

public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

    LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater();
            View row = inflater.inflate(yourRowlayout, parent,
                    false);
       TextView make = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.Make);
        Typeface myTypeFace = Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),
                "fonts/gilsanslight.otf");
        v.setTypeface(myTypeFace);
        v.setText(itemList.get(position));
        return row;
    }


public View getDropDownView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater();
                View row = inflater.inflate(yourRowlayout, parent,
                        false);
           TextView make = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.Make);
            Typeface myTypeFace = Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),
                    "fonts/gilsanslight.otf");
            v.setTypeface(myTypeFace);
            v.setText(itemList.get(position));
            return row;
        }
