ListItemClicked issue

Question

I have a list item where i have some items in. But no matter what i click, i always get position==-1.

And when i click first position its fine but when i click second or third position my app is crushing and i am getting Logcat:

05-12 19:37:34.131: E/AndroidRuntime(11152): java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Invalid index 1, size is 1
05-12 19:37:34.131: E/AndroidRuntime(11152): at java.util.ArrayList.throwIndexOutOfBoundsException(ArrayList.java:257)

Here is my code onListItemClicked:

class ListItemClicked implements OnItemClickListener
{
    @Override
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {


       int position =  parent.getSelectedItemPosition();  

       if(position==-1)            
       {           

           Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"first item clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();


       }

    }       
}

Please tell me if you need more info.

Answer 1

you ArrayList size is 1 and you trying to get item 2 from it

java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Invalid index 1, size is 1

Answer 2

Do not use parent.getSelectedItemPosition(), but rather use the position parameter. That's what it's for.
