I want to have an OnItemClickListener for a ListView I create using an ArrayAdapter

This is the code I use to create it:

Answer 1

Ok, after the information that your Activity extends ListActivity here's a way to implement OnItemClickListener:

public class newListView extends ListView {

    public newListView(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    @Override
    public void setOnItemClickListener(
            android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener listener) {
        super.setOnItemClickListener(listener);
        //do something when item is clicked

    }

}

Answer 2

Use OnItemClickListener

   ListView lv = getListView();
   lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener()
   {
      @Override
      public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapter, View v, int position,
            long arg3) 
      {
            String value = (String)adapter.getItemAtPosition(position); 
            // assuming string and if you want to get the value on click of list item
            // do what you intend to do on click of listview row
      }
   });

When you click on a row a listener is fired. So you setOnClickListener on the listview and use the annonymous inner class OnItemClickListener.

You also override onItemClick. The first param is a adapter. Second param is the view. third param is the position ( index of listview items).

Using the position you get the item .

Edit : From your comments i assume you need to set the adapter o listview

So assuming your activity extends ListActivtiy

     setListAdapter(adapter); 

Or if your activity class extends Activity

     ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listview1);
     //initialize adapter 
     lv.setAdapter(adapter); 

Answer 3

you can use this way...

listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
                final int position, long id) {

          String main = listView.getSelectedItem().toString();
        }
    });
