I am developing multiple widgets, One of them uses ListView but ListView is not supported by Android 2.3.
So, if my app is installed in Android 2.3 at that time widget with ListView should not display in widget's list.

No, you are developing multiple app widgets. While I am sorry that the terms are confusing, it is very important for you to use the right terminology in your question.

One of them uses ListView but ListView is not supported by Android 2.3.

Correct, ListView is not supported in app widgets in Android 2.3 or lower.

So, if my app is installed in Android 2.3 at that time widget with ListView should not display in widget's list.

Step #1: Create a res/values/bools.xml file, defining a boolean resource, with a name of is_honeycomb, and a value of false.

Step #2: Create a res/values-v11/bools.xml file, defining another boolean resource, with the same name (is_honeycomb), and a value of true

Step #3: In your manifest, on the <receiver> element for the AppWidgetProvider that uses a ListView, add android:enabled="@bool/is_honeycomb".

The net effect is that on Android 3.0+ devices, your ListView app widget will be an available option, but on Android 2.3 and lower devices, it will not.
