I have a ListView
with CheckBox
on it. and i am using Custom Adapter
to populate the ListView
.
In my xml
file i have a Button
at bottom. what i want is let user select number of rows in ListView
and when he/she clicked on the Button
get the position of the selected items so that i could get the object for particular row for further calculations.
Below Snippet does exactly what you want.
