Efficient Way To Bind Listview In Android

Basically, I want to discuss, how to bind ListView in android. Before we get started, if you want to know about some essential Tips and Tricks for android development, please go through the following article: Tips and Tricks Android App Developers.

Suppose I have some data in ArrayList<String> format, then put it into ArrayAdapter<String> which will load data to views in ListView using Android Studio.

Code for the drawable layout of ListView


<ListView
android:id="@+id/SimpleListView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"></ListView>

<ListView

android:id="@+id/SimpleListView"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_height="match_parent"></ListView>

Code for ArrayList data and Adapter


public class ListviewActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
     ListView lvSimple;
     ArrayList<String> arrayList;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
     super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
     setContentView(R.layout.activity_listview);

     lvSimple = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.SimpleListView);
     arrayList = GenerateData();
     ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, arrayList);
     lvSimple.setAdapter(adapter);
  }

private ArrayList<String> GenerateData() {
     ArrayList<String> listData = new ArrayList<String>();
     listData.add("Saturday");
     listData.add("Sunday");
     listData.add("Monday");
     listData.add("Tuesday");
     return listData;
  }
}
