onItemClickListener(), how to pass clicked item's data?

android, list, onitemclicklistener

Solution

Following example shows you how to pass data onItemClick for particular position.

ListView lv = getListView();

            // listening to single list item on click
            lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
              public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
                  int position, long id) {

                  // selected item
                HERE YOU GOT POSITION FOR PERTICULAR ITEM

                  // Launching new Activity on selecting single List Item
                  Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), SingleListItem.class);
                  // sending data to new activity
                  i.putExtra("position", fillMaps.get(position));
                  startActivity(i);

              }
            });

And yes you need to declare `fillMaps` as globally.

public class ListViewA extends Activity{

    List<HashMap<String, String>> fillMaps = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);......

Problem

I am using onItemClickListener() with a List. I want to pass name of the item clicked on, and an arbitrary number to next instance of the list. How can this be done? Edit: here is the class: ``` public class ListViewA extends Activity{ /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); ListView lv= (ListView)findViewById(R.id.listview); // create the grid item mapping String[] from = new String[] {"col_1"}; int[] to = new int[] {R.id.item2}; // prepare the list of all records List<HashMap<String, String>> fillMaps = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>(); for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++){ HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>(); map.put("col_1", "col_1_item_" + i); fillMaps.add(map); lv.setOnItemClickListener(onListClick); } // fill in the grid_item layout SimpleAdapter adapter = new SimpleAdapter(this, fillMaps, R.layout.grid_item, from, to); lv.setAdapter(adapter); } private AdapterView.OnItemClickListener onListClick=new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener(){ public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent,View view, int position, long id) { Intent i=new Intent(ListViewA.this,ListViewA.class); startActivity(i); } }; } ```
