Question

I am using checkbox with ListView.Code is working fine. I strucked to get all the list checked Items. I used below code for getting checked items. But it is giving result of focused area of list.

int firstPosition = list.getFirstVisiblePosition();

        for(int i = firstPosition; i < list.getCount(); i++){
            View v = list.getChildAt(i);
            if(v != null){
                cbx = (CheckBox)v.findViewById(R.id.c_checkbox);
                if(cbx.isChecked()){
                                        //adding this check box to one sub list
                }
            }
        }

But it is giving only focusable list items result only.Depending on sublist I want to populate my menu that’s why I am using this code in onPrepareOptionsMen() method and clicking on menu item delete this list from database.
I found another solution that is

long checkedPos[] =list.getCheckedItemIds();

But it is giving

This error. After searching on Google I found another solution that is
