Answer 1

    There is one more way we can add items to string array like this

    int i = 0 ;

     String[] S5;

    fix its size 
    else if(Text.equals("BEVERAGES")){         
                        l1.setAdapter(bever);
                        return;
                    }    
                    else if(Text.equals("BREAKFAST")){
                        l1.setAdapter(Breakf);
     S5=new String[]{Breakf.size()};
                        return;
                    }
                    else if(Text.equals("LUNCH")){
                        l1.setAdapter(lunc);
     S5=new String[]{lunc.size()};
                        return;
                    }
                    else if(Text.equals("DINNER")){
                        l1.setAdapter(Dinn);
     S5=new String[]{Dinn.size()};
                        return;

                    }
                    else if(Text.equals("DESSERTS")){
                        l1.setAdapter(Dessert);
     S5=new String[]{Dessert.size()};
                        return;
                    }
                    else if(Text.equals("APPETIZERS & SIDES")){
                        l1.setAdapter(Appet);
     S5=new String[]{Appet.size()};
                        return;
                    }


    l1.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
           public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
               int position, long id) {
               // When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text
              Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "SELECTED :: " +((TextView) view).getText(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
              String s2=(String) ((TextView) view).getText();
              // String ss=Integer.toString(myid);
              //String[] S1=new String[]{s2};

//    it add a new element to string array all the time list item is clicked
     S5[i] =  s2 ;
    i++       
    );

Answer 2

In List item click

 l1.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
               public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
                   int position, long id) {
                   // When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text
                  Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "SELECTED :: " +((TextView) view).getText(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();


                  String s2=(String) ((TextView) view).getText();


                  // String ss=Integer.toString(myid);

you add values to a string array like
    String[] S5=new String[]{s2}; 
         this will ovverride the previous element the all time shall 
    not add any other value




                  //String[] S1=new String[]{s2};
                  GlobalClass.myval=S5;
                  for (int i=0;i<GlobalClass.myval.length;i++){
                      System .out.println("Clicked-->"+GlobalClass.myval[i]);
                  }

do it like this first

// declare array list before on create in your activity

    private ArrayList<String> AddedItems = new ArrayList<String>();


l1.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
       public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
           int position, long id) {
           // When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text
          Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "SELECTED :: " +((TextView) view).getText(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

when lsit tiem is clicked add it to a array list like
           AddedItems.add(((TextView) view).getText());




          }


Once all click events are done 

before going to next activity 

b1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        public void onClick(View v) {

convert the string list to string array or whereevr in the activity you want 
// create string array  from array list

        myval= listPar.toArray(new String[AddedItems .size()]);

}
    });

Answer 3

Add content to ListView and then use the onItemClickListener for each ListItem Value. You can achieve your goal by below code.

Use this for your global variable instead of string array

Global Class

 class GlobalClass extends Application {
 public static List<String> myVal = new ArrayList<String>() ;
 }

HomeActivity

OnItemClickListener

   listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position,
                long id) {

             String clickedvalue =(String) parent.getItemAtPosition(position); 
             myVal.add(clickedvalue);

             }
        }); 
    }

Now All Clicked Values will be in your ListArray.

I hope it helps.

Answer 4

The OnItemClick() gets called everytime an item on a ListView gets clicked. You are creating your S5 array everytime the OnItemClick() method gets called. After that you are overwriting GlobalClass.myval with the newly created array which has only the latest clicked value. For collecting all the values, maintain a global array. You can also add the clicked values in the GlobalClass.myval directly(assuming it is an array of the required type). Another suggestion, maintain a List instead of an array.
