This code demonstrates two approaches to disable items in a ListView within an Android application written in Kotlin. Disabling an item prevents the user from clicking it and performing any associated actions. The code includes a button that allows the user to manually disable an item and also showcases programmatic disabling during the list adapter initialization. Breakdown of the Code The code consists of two main parts: the MainActivity.kt file containing the Activity code and the activity_main.xml file defining the layout. MainActivity.kt: This file defines the MainActivity class which extends the Activity class. It retrieves references to the UI elements (Button, ListView, TextView) from the layout using findViewById . It creates a list of color names to populate the ListView. An ArrayAdapter is initialized with the list data. This adapter provides a bridge between the data and the ListView. The isEnabled method of the adapter overrides the default behavior. It ret...
