Android: How to find the position clicked from the context menu

Issue

I have a list view filled with data. I set up a context menu for the listview using the following code:

list.setOnCreateContextMenuListener
(
  new View.OnCreateContextMenuListener() 
  {
        public void onCreateContextMenu(ContextMenu menu, View view, ContextMenu.ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) 
        {
       AdapterContextMenuInfo mi =(AdapterContextMenuInfo) menuInfo;
       menu.add(0, 0, 0, "Delete item");                
    }
   }
);

I have the following method override to control de contextmenu menuitem selected:

@Override
public boolean onContextItemSelected(MenuItem item) 
{
  switch(item.getItemId()) 
  { 
  case 0: 
    ShowAlert("hello from delete item");
    break; 
  default: 
  return super.onContextItemSelected(item); 
  } 
  return true; 
}

In this overridden method, how could I find the item of the list view that was clicked?

Solution

You can use the ContextMenu.ContextMenuInfo.

Something like that:

@Override
public boolean onContextItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    AdapterContextMenuInfo info = (AdapterContextMenuInfo) item.getMenuInfo();
    int index = info.position;
}

You can also get the exact View for which the menu is being displayed:

@Override
public boolean onContextItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    AdapterContextMenuInfo info = (AdapterContextMenuInfo) item.getMenuInfo();
    int index = info.position;
    View view = info.targetView;
}
