How do you add array to listview

Question

I have an array of apps(PInfo) and I am wondering how do I add that array to a listview?

ArrayList<PInfo> info = appsGetter.listPackages();
    int number = 0;
    PInfo appInArray;
    while(number < info.size()){
        appInArray = info.get(number);
}

This is what I have at the moment, the listPackages() is a method that is getting the names of the apps from the device.

At the moment I am trying to get the information out of the array one by one and add it to the listview like that. Is that how I should do it our should I add the array straight to the listview? And how do you do that?

Answer 1

You can use an ArrayAdapter and initialize it like this:

ArrayAdapter<PInfo> adapter = new ArrayAdapter(context, 
                android.R.layout.simple_list_item_multiple_choice, 
                info);

Then you can you use ListView.setAdapter(adapter).

I'm not sure if this is what you're asking though. So please clarify further if this is not what you're asking
