    }

}
Create ListView in code

Note

MainActivity class extends the ListActivity class. The ListActivity class extends the Activity class and it displays a list of items by binding to a data source.

There is no need to modify the main.xml file to include the ListView; the ListActivity class itself contains a ListView.
