Question

Hey I want to make a view appear below the last that has been created.

It is showing like this:

I want to make the next view show below the last one, so for each new view added, it shows below. Understand?

Here is my code. The xml file and the java file.

listitem.xml

<LinearLayout 
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
    android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
    android:id="@+id/linearId" 
    android:padding="6dip"
    >
    <ImageView 
        android:id="@+id/icon" 
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent" 
        android:layout_marginRight="6dip"
        android:src="@drawable/icon" 
        />
    <LinearLayout 
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:layout_width="0dip" android:layout_weight="1"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        >
        <TextView 
            android:id="@+id/txt1" 
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="0dip" 
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:textSize="20sp" 
            android:gravity="center_vertical"
            android:text="My Application" 
            />
        <TextView 
            android:id="@+id/txt2" 
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="0dip" 
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:singleLine="true" 
            android:ellipsize="marquee"
            android:text="Simple application that shows how to use RelativeLayout"
            android:textSize="10sp" 
            />
    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

RatedCalls.java

public class RatedCalls extends Activity {

private static final String LOG_TAG = "RatedCalls";
private TableLayout table;
private CallDataHelper cdh;
private TableRow row;
private TableRow row2;

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    setContentView(R.layout.listitem);

    Log.i(LOG_TAG, "calling from onCreate()");

    cdh = new CallDataHelper(this);

    startService(new Intent(this, RatedCallsService.class));
    Log.i(LOG_TAG, "Service called.");
    Log.i(LOG_TAG, "before call fillList");

    List<String> ratedCalls = new ArrayList<String>();
    ratedCalls = this.cdh.selectTopCalls();

    LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) this
            .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
    LinearLayout ll = (LinearLayout) this.findViewById(R.id.linearId);

    for (int i = 0; i < 1; i++) {
        View item = inflater.inflate(R.layout.listitem, null);

        TextView x = (TextView) item.findViewById(R.id.txt1);
        x.setText(ratedCalls.get(0));

        TextView ht = (TextView) item.findViewById(R.id.txt2);
        ht.setText(ratedCalls.get(1));

        ll.addView(item, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);


    }
}

To work so you need to create two different xml for each inflater

In your layout folder,new xml layout/main2.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"    
        android:layout_height="fill_parent">    
             <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/icon"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginRight="6dip"
            android:src="@drawable/icon"
            />
            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/txt1"
                android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:textSize="20sp"
                android:gravity="center_vertical"
                android:text="My Application"
                />
            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/txt2"
                android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:singleLine="true"
                android:ellipsize="marquee"
                android:text="Simple application that shows how to use RelativeLayout"
                android:textSize="10sp"
                />    
        </LinearLayout>

Then your layout/main.xml

<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/linearId"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    >
    <TextView android:id="@+id/rowCount"    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" ></TextView>
     <LinearLayout
         android:id="@+id/linearId2"
       android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
    android:padding="6dip"> 
         </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Then you can set you activity like this

 private int ELEMENTINEACHROW=2 ;
    private int NOOFROW = 4;
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) this.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        LinearLayout ll = (LinearLayout) this.findViewById(R.id.linearId);
        for (int j = 0; j < NOOFROW; j++) {
            View itemMain = inflater.inflate(R.layout.main, null, false);
            TextView rowCount = (TextView) itemMain.findViewById(R.id.rowCount);
            rowCount.setText("Row:"+(j+1));
            LinearLayout ll2 = (LinearLayout) itemMain.findViewById(R.id.linearId2);
            for (int i = 0; i < ELEMENTINEACHROW; i++) {
                View item = inflater.inflate(R.layout.main2, null, false);

                TextView x = (TextView) item.findViewById(R.id.txt1);
                x.setText("test");

                TextView ht = (TextView) item.findViewById(R.id.txt2);
                ht.setText("good");

                ll2.addView(item, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT);
            }
            ll.addView(itemMain, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT);
        }
    }

Hope it give you the idea.
