LI element with a clickhandler

[bhomass]

I read up on this post

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/Google-Web-Toolkit/Zg5XQc9aCaI

for the whole day I am stuck on this issue, this article seems right on the topic, but the code was abbreviated to the point I can not get it working.

class MyList extends Widget implements HasClickHandlers { 
   public MyList() { 
      // TODO: build your DOM tree here 
      setElement(ulElement); 
   } 

   public HandlerRegistration addClickHandler(ClickHandler handler) { 
      addDomHandler(handler, ClickEvent.getType()); 
   } 

   // Helper method, not strictly necessary but very helpful 
   // You could either return a LIElement or the index of the item in 
the list as an int 
   public int getItemFromEvent(DomEvent<?> event) { 
      // TODO: see my previous message about how to implement it 
      // see also the code for HTMLTable.getCellForEvent 
   } 
} 

so where do I actually add the clickhandler?

I tried 

        this.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() {

@Override

public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {

int a = 0;

}

});

the compiler does not complain but this handler does not respond to mouse clicks.

I tried

anchorLink.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() {

@Override

public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {

int a = 0;

}

});

where anchorLink is an anchorElement, the compiler complains addClickHandler is not a method of anchorLink.

Can someone help me complete the posted sample code.
