multiple listview in one activity

Question

Sorry if I can not speak good English, how have multiple Listview in one activity that extends ListActivity such as

private List<Tour> tours;
ArrayAdapter<Tour> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<Tour>(this, 
                    android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, tours);
setListAdapter(adapter);

this code is for one Listview in activity that Listview's id is @android:id/list but i have two or more Lisview in one activity Please guide me

then you should not extend ListActivity instead extend it as normal activity and give each listview's unique Id — Kalpesh Lakhani, Jul 10 '14 at 06:38
ListActivity is specifically for One Single Activity. If you want more than one Listview in an activity. You should just extend Activity class and create multiple listivew. — Ramesh_D, Jul 10 '14 at 06:40

You can use ListFragment instead ListActivity.

First Fragment:

public class FirstListFragment extends ListFragment {

  @Override
  public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
    private List<Tour> tours;
    ArrayAdapter<Tour> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<Tour>(this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, tours);
    setListAdapter(adapter);
  }

  @Override
  public void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
    // do something with the data
  }
}

Second fragment:

public class SecondListFragment extends ListFragment {

  @Override
  public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
    private List<Tour> tours;
    ArrayAdapter<Tour> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<Tour>(this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, tours);
    setListAdapter(adapter);
  }

  @Override
  public void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
    // do something with the data
  }
}

Now you should add fragments to layout in xml file of activity:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="horizontal" >

    <fragment android:name="com.your_package.FirstListFragment"
              android:id="@+id/first_fragment"
              android:layout_weight="1"
              android:layout_width="0dp"
              android:layout_height="match_parent" />

    <fragment android:name="com.your_package.SecondListFragment"
              android:id="@+id/second_fragment"
              android:layout_weight="1"
              android:layout_width="0dp"
              android:layout_height="match_parent" />

</LinearLayout>

give an error(The constructor ArrayAdapter(MainActivity, int, List) is undefined) — user3824114, Jul 10 '14 at 09:06
ArrayAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapter(getActivity(),android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, tours); Instead "this" use getActivity() because Fragment object is not child of Context. — Matt Twig, Jul 10 '14 at 09:13

You should extends Activity instead of ListActivity in your code. And in your activity's layout xml file you should take two different id for that two list view.
