Assigning ID to a Row in an Android ListView

Question

I have a ListView. When an item on the ListView is tapped, it loads a SubView. I want to assign an ID to each row of the ListView, so I can pass that ID along to the SubView

Answer 1

Hi Chris you already have the position id in your listView, implement the onListItemClick() function.

    protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, final int position, long id) {
      super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);               
      Toast.makeText(this,  "my id to pass along the subview is " + position,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

   }

if you want assing your own id use setTag()

v.setTag("myownID"+position);
