Try this code (works for me):
// MainActivity
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
final ListView listTags = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listPack);
listTags.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.list_item, mStrings));
listTags.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
listTags.setSelection(position);
// Toast.makeText(getParent(), "hello", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
}
private String[] mStrings = {
"Comte", "Coolea", "Cooleney", "Coquetdale", "Corleggy", "Cornish Pepper",
"Cotherstone", "Cotija", "Cottage Cheese", "Cottage Cheese (Australian)",
"Cougar Gold", "Coulommiers", "Coverdale", "Crayeux de Roncq", "Cream Cheese",
"Cream Havarti", "Crema Agria", "Crema Mexicana", "Creme Fraiche", "Crescenza",
"Croghan", "Crottin de Chavignol", "Crottin du Chavignol", "Crowdie", "Crowley",
"Cuajada", "Curd", "Cure Nantais", "Curworthy", "Cwmtawe Pecorino",
};
