    sd = new SimpleAdapter(activity.this,mylist,R.layout.jobslist,
                new String[]{"name"},new int[]{R.id.jobText});
    jobList.setAdapter(sd);


}

joblist.xml

you can call this showPopUp(); function wherever you want to display the alert dialog with listview. please note that there will be the arraylist which you can add items to it to show the items in a list
