SimpleListView in Android

In a Android, ListView is arranges components or items  in a vertical scrollable list. If you have a long list of items that you simply want to show to the user, the ListView view is the answer. This example demonstrates the way to use the ListView to show a listing of items contained within an array.

activity_main.xml

--------------------------------

<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">


    <ListView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/listView"
        android:divider="#ff554b"
        android:dividerHeight="4dp" />
</LinearLayout>

MainActivity.Java

----------------------------------

package com.android.anil.simplelistview1;



import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.view.View;

import android.widget.AdapterView;

import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;

import android.widget.ListView;

import android.widget.Toast;



public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    ListView list;

    String[] names={"Name1","Name2","Name3","Name4","Name5","Name6","Name7","Name8","Name9","Name10"};



    @Override

    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        list=(ListView)findViewById(R.id.listView);

        ArrayAdapter<String> arrayAdapter=new ArrayAdapter<String>(MainActivity.this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,names);

        list.setAdapter(arrayAdapter);

        list.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {

            @Override

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

                Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Name is : "+names, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

            }

        });



    }



}

Output is:
