Question

I have over 30 clickable imagebutton views that I want to create programatically instead of using multiple xml files. Can someone please explain how I can do so? For each imagebutton, I need to:

1. be able to name and set the ID of each view programatically, like R.drawable.button01, R.drawable.button02, etc. since I would need to refer back to them later with findViewById().

2. each imagebutton is clickable and I have a button pressed down image for each button so I need to figure out how to assign the button press actions to each button dynamically instead of using a xml resource file for each.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Take any of the layout as root like Linear or Relative initialize it ..

LinearLayout layout = new LinearLayout(context);
layout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
ImageButton button =new ImageButton(context);
layout.addView(layout);
setContentView(layout);

I hope this solves your problem.
