Question

I have a button and when I press it, i want to remove it (not make it invisible). I read that I can do that using layout.removeView(mybutton) but what is the layout ? and how can I get it in my activity

Button showQuestion;
private void initialize() {
    showQuestion = (Button) findViewById(R.id.bAnswerQuestionShowQuestion);
}
public void onClick(View v) {
    switch (v.getId()) {
        case R.id.bAnswerQuestionShowQuestion:
                showQuestion.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
                //Here i want to delete the button
                question.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                theAnswer.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                answerQuestion.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                showChoices.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                showHint.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            break;
    }
}

see link

ViewGroup layout = (ViewGroup) button.getParent();
if(null!=layout) //for safety only  as you are doing onClick
  layout.removeView(button);
