Android Listview Example

In Android, Listview is used to show a list of items in a vertically scrolling list.

For instance, in a Registration form when we are selecting professions a list of items will be displayed. We can use Listview to display the list of items.

Your XML file should look like

*********************************************

xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

2	<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01"

3	android:layout_width="fill_parent"

4	android:layout_height="fill_parent"

5	xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

6	<ListView android:id="@+id/ListView01"

7	android:layout_width="wrap_content"

8	android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

9	LinearLayout>

Your Java code looks like

01	public class ListviewExample extends Activity

02

{

03	private ListView lv1;

04	private String lv_arr[]={"Android","iPhone","BlackBerry","AndroidPeople"};

05

@Override

06	public void onCreate(Bundle icicle)

07

{

08	super.onCreate(icicle);

09	setContentView(R.layout.main);

10	lv1=(ListView)findViewById(R.id.ListView01);

11	// By using setAdpater method in listview we an add string array in list.

12	lv1.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1 , lv_arr));

13

}

14

}

The output will look like
