All works fine. But now i want that if i click on a List View Item that anything happen what i have to do?

My actual Code (list Adapter)

    //Create Variables

    private ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
    private ArrayList<Sort> aktuelleObjektListe = new ArrayList<>();
    private Context context;
    public static DBHelper dataSource;
    TextView quantity = null;
    public static final String LOG_TAG = listAdapter.class.getSimpleName();

    //Finished

    //Create ListAdapter

    public listAdapter(ArrayList<String> list, Context context) {
        this.list = list;
        this.context = context;
        dataSource = new DBHelper(context);
        dataSource.open();
        aktuelleObjektListe = dataSource.getAllSorts();
        dataSource.close();
    }

    //Finished

    //Unused but required

    @Override
    public int getCount() {
        return list.size();
    }

    @Override
    public Object getItem(int pos) {
        return list.get(pos);
    }

    @Override
    public long getItemId(int pos) {
        return 0;
        //just return 0 if your list items do not have an Id variable.
    }

    //Finished

    //Update ListView ( is Called by "adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();" )

    @Override
    public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        View view = convertView;
        if (view == null) {
            LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
            view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.listlayout, null);

        }

        TextView listItemText = (TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.list_item_string);
        listItemText.setText(list.get(position));

        quantity = (TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.quantity_double);
        quantity.setText( Integer.toString(  aktuelleObjektListe.get(position).getQuantity()  ) );

     //Finished

        //Handle ADD and DELETE Button

        Button add1toSort = (Button)view.findViewById(R.id.add1toSort);
        Button remove1fromSort = (Button)view.findViewById(R.id.remove1fromSort);

    add1toSort.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {

            dataSource.open();

            Sort sort = dataSource.getAllSorts().get(position);

            dataSource.updateSortInDB(sort.getId(), sort.getSort(), (sort.getQuantity() + 1) );

            aktuelleObjektListe = dataSource.getAllSorts();

            dataSource.close();

            notifyDataSetChanged();
        }
    });

    remove1fromSort.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {

            dataSource.open();

            Sort sort = dataSource.getAllSorts().get(position);

            dataSource.updateSortInDB(sort.getId(), sort.getSort(), (sort.getQuantity() - 1) );

            aktuelleObjektListe = dataSource.getAllSorts();

            dataSource.close();

            notifyDataSetChanged();
        }
    });

    //Finished
    return view;
}

do you want the row in listView to be clicked and not the buttons in it? — Kavach Chandra, Jul 25 '17 at 09:06

How can i add a setOnClickListener to my ListView Android

You should implement setOnItemClickListener to your possessionList listView

possessionList.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
      // your code
    }
});

Another alternative would be add android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" in the LinearLayout or RelativeLayout, not inside listView element.

Example

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
            .....
    android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
    tools:context="de.control.overview">

possessionList.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

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

        Log.i("Hello!", "Y u no see me?");

    }
});

from ListView with OnItemClickListener android

It would be better for you to use recyclerview instead of listView.

// Item Click Listener for the listview
 OnItemClickListener itemClickListener = new OnItemClickListener() {
       @Override
       public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View container, int 
                                     position, long id) {
                // Getting the Container Layout of the ListView
                LinearLayout linearLayoutParent = (LinearLayout) container;

                // Getting the inner Linear Layout
                LinearLayout linearLayoutChild = (LinearLayout ) 
                 linearLayoutParent.getChildAt(1);

                // Getting the Country TextView
                TextView tvCountry = (TextView) linearLayoutChild.getChildAt(0);

                Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), tvCountry.getText().toString(), 
                 Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        };

        // Setting the item click listener for the listview
        listView.setOnItemClickListener(itemClickListener);

after getting reference to listview using ListView listView = findViewById(R.id.listView); — Nouman Ch, Jul 27 '17 at 11:16

For example, If I have a list view like this:

ListView mListView = (ListView) mLayout.findViewById(R.id.my_list_view);

You can use setOnItemClickListener for click on each item in your list view event:

mListView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int i, long l) {
        //Do what you want to each item here
    }
});

Try adding android:focusable="false" to your text views and buttons in your listlayout.xml elements and add this line android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" in list layout's parent layout.
