Display list of active (running) applications in a list view
<p>I am trying to write an application that displays the list of running applications. I used activity manager for that. While running the application, It is showing the following error."UNHANDLED EVENT LOOP EXECUTION" IN ERROR LOG and application is force closing.</p>

<p>Please help me to find my mistake.
My code is given below.</p>

<pre><code>public class ActiveApplicationsActivity extends ListActivity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        ActivityManager am = (ActivityManager) getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE); 
        List&lt;ActivityManager.RunningAppProcessInfo&gt; l = am.getRunningAppProcesses();

        String[] sl = (String[]) l.toArray();

        ArrayAdapter&lt;String&gt; adapter = new ArrayAdapter&lt;String&gt;(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, sl);

        setListAdapter(adapter);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
        String item = (String) getListAdapter().getItem(position);
        Toast.makeText(this, item + " selected", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }
}
</code></pre>

<p>I am adding the logcat information</p>
