ListView in Android Applications

In this tutorial, i am going to show you how to group lot of items and put it in a list in your application. To achieve this, i am going to use the class ListView in android which extends
(AbsListView). 

Let's us start with a simple example of ListView.
1. Create a new android application.
2. You will end with two files, one is the activity_main and the other one is the MainActivity( which is by default naming convention).
3. Write the below code

activity_main.xml coding

---------

<LinearLayout

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

android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:orientation="">

<TextView

android:id="@+id/textView1"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:text="Cars" />

<ListView

android:id="@+id/listView"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_width="match_parent"/>

</LinearLayout>

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

MainActivity.java Code:

public class MainActivity extends Activity

{

ListView list;

String [] cars={"Cabrio","Capri","Brava","Brat","Boxter","Camry"};

ArrayAdapter<String> mAdapter;

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

{

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

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

mAdapter=new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,cars);

list.setAdapter(mAdapter);

}

}

output:
