I am an Android developer amateur and I went to Android Developers site to learn more about Android development. I completed the previous tutorials and I am having problems with HelloListView Tutorial. There are errors in my code. Kindly look at my code and explain to me in details for me to understand why it is wrong. Please be gentle with me because I'm a newbie and I'm still learning. Thank u!
Here is my code :
HelloListViewActivitydotjava
Code:
package com.android.HelloListView;
import android.app.ListActivity;

import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class HelloListViewActivity extends ListActivity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.list_item, COUNTRIES));
ListView lv = getListView();
lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() { //ERROR ON THIS LINE
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, TextView view,
int position, long id) {
// When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), ((TextView) view).getText(),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
private void setListAdapter(ArrayAdapter<String> arrayAdapter) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
static final String[] COUNTRIES = new String[] {
"Afghanistan", "Albania", "Algeria", "American Samoa", "Andorra",

};}
It says :
"Multiple markers at this line
- OnItemClickListener cannot be resolved to a type
- The method setOnItemClickListener(AdapterView.OnItemClickList ener) in the type AdapterView<ListAdapter> is not applicable for the arguments (new onItemClickListener){})"
If you're are using Eclipse, you can always go back into the appname.java file and hit CTRL+SHIFT+O (that's the letter O not a 0) and it add the necessary import statements for you most of the time...until you get into advanced stuff and have to import your own classes.
Nice of you to stop in to join us. You might wanna check out our developers forum. Here's a link that you might be interested in: Application Development - Android Forums as this is where the other developers love to hang-out.
I hope you find this place insightful and informative.
