Java

public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int position, long arg3) {	    
		  }

The int position will give you the selected item index in int.

that is the position of the View in the Adapter, not the selection index.

this is the position of selected item on listview as we select the 5th item in listview the index is 5 and we get 5 in our position argument of onItemClick method.
