ListView yielding nullpointerexception on setOnItemClickListener

Question

I\'m attempting to work with through some tutorial code and add in an OnItemClick Listener, but keep throwing an exception when it hits the listener and crashing my app. This is

Answer 1

I am not sure your code will work

private OnItemClickListener newsSelectListener = new OnItemClickListener()
{
    @Override
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View view, int position, long id) {
        AlertDialog.Builder alert=new AlertDialog.Builder(RssActivity.this);
        alert.setTitle("Clicked").setMessage("Item clicked").setNeutralButton("OK", null).show();

    }
};

But in my opinion, I often add setOnClickListener() to convertView in getView method in Adapter class

public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
......................
convertView.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                //Do Somethings in here
                }
            }
        });
