Question

I have a checkbox in my ListView row which looks like this.

===========================================
[CheckBox] [TextView] [TextView] [TextView]
===========================================

the xml code is here

<CheckBox
    android:id="@+id/course_search_checkbox"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:clickable="false"
    android:focusable="false" />

And I have already made the checkbox not clickable and focusable so that the click event will be passed to the ListView.

What I want to do here is that when the user click the listview, make the CheckBox checked and add the clicked position of listview to an arraylist. So how can I make the CheckBox checked in an OnItemClickListener of ListView?

Help please, thanks.

You could add this code within your OnItemClickListener:

public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View view, int position, long id){
   CheckBox box = (CheckBox)view.findViewById(R.id.course_search_checkbox);
   box.setChecked(true);
}
