Is there a quicker or shorter way to initialize all view in my layout

  • 0

Is there a quicker or shorter way to initialize all view in my layout than this:

    row2[0] = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.ll22);
    row2A[0] = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.ll22alt);
    row2B[0] = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.ll22blank);
    mOffsiteDataBackup[0] = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.ll22_backup);
    mRam[0] = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.ll22_ram);
    mCpu[0] = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.ll22_cpu);
    mHdd[0] = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.ll22_hdd);
    mOs[0] = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.ll22_system);
    mStatusIcon[0] = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.ll22_image);
   .
   .
   .

It is really annoying to write lot of lines only to find views. Until I find all of them and initialize some listeners, my onCreate has more than 400 lines, which is something I certainly don’t want.

Thanks for your tips !

    Any way you do it it’s going to be around the same amount of typing, in some cases even more. 50> an extreme amount of views in an activity…

    The only way I can think of making this smaller is splitting them up into Fragments and use the updated framework… 70 elements shouldn’t be in one ui.. a ui is meant to be simple and easy to use. Not with lots of elements to it that distracts the user from the main task they want it for.
