How to set up onItemClickListener

Question

I set up a Listview in Android Studio but need help with coding a OnItemClickListner.

I have tried the code, but doesn't seem to work.

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list_view);

        ArrayList<Object> list = new ArrayList<>();
 list.add(new LTCItem("30.06 Sign Violations","Submit A Complaint To Texas Attorney General",R.drawable.gavel));
        list.add(new LTCItem("U.S. & Texas LawShield","Legal Defense For Self Defense",R.drawable.lawshield));

        listView.setAdapter(new LTCAdapter(this, list));

        listView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int i, long l) {

            }
        });

    }
}

Below is my list_view file. Where in the file do block descendantFocusability as suggested? Do I put it under listView? Sorry I am learning .

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:alwaysDrawnWithCache="true"
    android:background="#000000"
    android:padding="8dp">

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

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/itemListViewImgIcon"
        android:layout_width="50dp"
        android:layout_height="50dp"
        android:contentDescription="@+id/itemListViewImgIcon"
        android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/itemListViewTxtTopicName"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/itemListViewTxtTopicSubtitle"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@id/itemListViewTxtTopicName"

</RelativeLayout>

Ok I added the adapter code which is a Java Class item. Where do I add the code here?

public class LTCAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
    ArrayList<Object> list;
    private static final int LTC_Item = 0;
    private static final int HEADER = 1;
    private LayoutInflater inflater;


    public LTCAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<Object> list) {
        this.list = list;
        inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
    }

    @Override
    public int getItemViewType(int position) {
        if (list.get(position) instanceof LTCItem) {
            return LTC_Item;
        } else {
            return HEADER;
        }
    }

    @Override
    public int getViewTypeCount() {
        return 2;
    }

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

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

    @Override
    public long getItemId(int i) {
        return 1;
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int i, View view, ViewGroup viewGroup) {
        if (view == null) {
            switch (getItemViewType(i)) {
                case LTC_Item:
                    view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.item_list_view, null);
                    break;
                case HEADER:
                    view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.item_listview_header, null);
                    break;
            }
        }

        switch (getItemViewType(i)) {
            case LTC_Item:
                ImageView image = (ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.itemListViewImgIcon);
                TextView name = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.itemListViewTxtTopicName);
                TextView subtitle = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.itemListViewTxtTopicSubtitle);

                image.setImageResource(((LTCItem) list.get(i)).getImage());
                name.setText(((LTCItem) list.get(i)).getName());
                subtitle.setText(((LTCItem) list.get(i)).getSubtitle());
                break;
            case HEADER:
                TextView title = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.itemListViewHeader);
                title.setText(((String) list.get(i)));
                break;
        }
        return view;
    }
}

Your ListView element doesn't have an ID, you should add android:id="@+id/list_view" to it in the XML file.

Here is an example:

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