I can't speak more highly of any IDE than Visual Studio.  It's useless for Java and such, but it is great for C++ and incredible if you get into .NET.  With a price point of Free, there's absolutely no reason it's not worth checking out at the minimum.  I suppose it's not for everyone but odds are you'll love it.

I can get visual studio for free through school, should I?
I'm not able to initiate the "OnItemClickListener".

You can see my code snippet

 ListAdapter adapter = new SimpleAdapter(this, mylist , R.layout.main, new String[] { "title"}, new int[] { R.id.item_title});
    setListAdapter(adapter);

    final ListView lv = getListView();
    lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);

    lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView&lt;?&gt; parent, View view, int position, long id) {              
            @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
            HashMap&lt;String, String&gt; o = (HashMap&lt;String, String&gt;) lv.getItemAtPosition(position);                   
            Toast.makeText(TopNewsActivity.this, "ID '" + o.get("id") + "' was clicked.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); 

        }
    });


after the setListAdapter my debugger goes to "lv.setOnItemClickListener" but then does not get into the loop and moves out.

I want to make the links Clickable kindly help.
