Question

I have to a make the list view items clickable i.e. start an activity. I am using the following code. I have no clue on how to proceed.

package org.example.androidsdk.demo;

import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;

public class MainActivity extends ListActivity {

    String [] mTestArray;

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        // Create an ArrayAdapter that will contain all list items
        ArrayAdapter<String> adapter;

        mTestArray = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.myArray);

        /*
         * Assign the name array to that adapter and also choose a simple layout
         * for the list items
         */
        adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(
            this,
            android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,
            mTestArray);

        // Assign the adapter to this ListActivity
        setListAdapter(adapter);
    }
}

Just Override onListItemClick in your Activity

 @Override
    protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
       String item = (String) getListAdapter().getItem(position);
       Toast.makeText(this, item + " selected", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
   }

You need to implement OnItemClickListener

And call getListView().setOnItemClickListener(this)

Finally, do what you want in overrided onItemClick method.

Override onListItemClick and write your Activity open code in it.

    @Override
    protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
      Intent i = new Intent(this,MyClass.class);
      startActivity(i);
   }
