Android: Storing selected ListView item in global variable -

i have 2 activities.

the first activity contains listview widget populated such:

string products[] = {"pull restaurant names here", "res. 1", "res abc", "res foo", "res hello",     "res xyz", "res test", "res test2", "denny's"};  lv = (listview) findviewbyid(r.id.listview);  // adding items listview adapter = new arrayadapter<string>(this, android.r.layout.simple_list_item_1, products); lv.setadapter(adapter); 

once user selects item list, load new activity such:

lv.setonitemclicklistener(new adapterview.onitemclicklistener() {     @override     public void onitemclick(adapterview<?> parent, view view, int position, long id) {         android.content.intent intent = new android.content.intent(guestpage.this, restaurantprofile.class);         startactivity(intent);     } }); 

i want able store selected item string listview global variable. have global class extends application, have included necessary name tag in manifest. using similar to:

globals g = (globals)getapplication(); g.setdata(string s); 

in order set global variable.

my issue storing selected listview item because don't know how call it. not using xml item files populate listview. how know item selected , how store global variable?

for example: user selects "res foo". new activity loaded , have global variable use among activities contains string "res foo". thanks.

what you're doing globals bad practice. instead take solution passing data between activities.

to selected string want like:

 public void onitemclick(adapterview<?> parent, view view, int position, long id) {     string selected = products[position];     ....  }
