How do I add Click Listener to ListView?

Question

I have a List View which is populated with countries I want to be able to click a an item and have it go to another activity in which i play an audio. my list View:

public class MainActivity extends ListActivity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);


    setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_selectable_list_item,getResources()
    .getStringArray(R.array.countries)));
     }
    }

How do I go about adding a onClick just like how you would make one for a button??

Answer 1

ListView listView = getListView(); // hear bind your listview

setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_selectable_list_item,getResources().getStringArray(R.array.countries)));

 listView.setAdapter(ListAdapter);
 listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> listView, View itemView, int itemPosition, long itemId)
        {           

        }
    });

 }
}

Answer 2

Either use getListView() to access built in list view, and operate on that:

getListView().setOnItemClickListener();

Or , override onListItemClicked() in ListActivity :

@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
    super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
    //--do stuff--
}

Answer 3

override onItemClick() method

 @Override
 public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View view, int arg2,
              long arg3) {
     // TODO Auto-generated method stub          
     Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), Activity2.class);
     startActivity(intent);

  }

Answer 4

Since your activity extends ListActivity

  ListView lv = getListView();
  lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
  public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> listView, View itemView, int itemPosition, long itemId)
    {           
          Intent launchActivity = new Intent(FirstActivity.this, SecondActivity.class);
          startActivity(launchActivity);
    }
   });

Answer 5

U can use context.getlistview() to get the listview. and add setOnItemClickListener to the listview like this.

context.getlistview().setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
                //Do whatever you want here

            }
        });

Answer 6

To make it handy just implement OnItemClickListener to your class

Add this in onCreate

ListView listView = getListView();
listView.setOnItemClickListener(this);

then override onItemClick like this

@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int position, long id){
    // your code
}

Answer 7

You have to use the setOnItemClickListener method. Here is the code

 listview.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
                long arg3) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            // do your code here

        }
    });
