ListViewAndroidExample.java File
public class ListViewAndroidExample extends Activity {
ListView listView ;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_list_view_android_example);
// Get ListView object from xml
listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list);
// Defined Array values to show in ListView
String[] values = new String[] { "Android List View",
"Adapter implementation",
"Simple List View In Android",
"Create List View Android",
"Android Example",
"List View Source Code",
"List View Array Adapter",
"Android Example List View"
};
// Define a new Adapter
// First parameter - Context
// Second parameter - Layout for the row
// Third parameter - ID of the TextView to which the data is written
// Forth - the Array of data
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, android.R.id.text1, values);
// Assign adapter to ListView
listView.setAdapter(adapter);
// ListView Item Click Listener
listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
// ListView Clicked item index
int itemPosition = position;
// ListView Clicked item value
String itemValue = (String) listView.getItemAtPosition(position);
// Show Alert
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Position :"+itemPosition+" ListItem : " +itemValue , Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
.show();
}
});

Explanation:
Adapters are used to provide the data to the ListView
Parameters:
simple_list_item_1 : Android internal layout view
android.R.id.text1 : In Android internal layout view already defined text fields to show data
values : User defined data array.
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, android.R.id.text1, values);
// Assign adapter to ListView
listView.setAdapter(adapter);
When Click on list item then onItemClick method in ListView Item Click Listener called
listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
// ListView Clicked item index
int itemPosition = position;
// ListView Clicked item value
String itemValue = (String) listView.getItemAtPosition(position);
// Show Alert
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Position :"+itemPosition+" ListItem : " +itemValue , Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
.show();
}
});
