After reading some similiar problem here, I'm still forced to post my question here.
I have an Activity that should add and show a certain amount of Buttons relative to an amount of games in my SQLite-database. This Activity must be scrollable.
So i have my basic layout-xml-file like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingTop="5dp"
android:paddingBottom="5dp"
android:paddingLeft="15dp"
android:paddingRight="15dp" >
<RelativeLayout
android:id="@+id/rel_all_football"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>
<TextView
style="@style/TextHeader"
android:id="@+id/tv_all_football_header"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/all_games"
/>
<View
android:id="@+id/v_cond_line1"
android:layout_below="@+id/tv_all_football_header"
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
android:background="#FFFFFF"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
</ScrollView>
Now for every entry in the database, I want to add a Button
with the certain information in that RelativeLayout
under the TextView
(header) and the View
(simple line).
So after reading some questions here, I tried something like this:
RelativeLayout layout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.rel_all_football);
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) this.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
Button button;
for(int i=0; i<3; i++){
button = new Button(this);
button.setLayoutParams(
new LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
button.setText("Hello " + i);
layout.addView(button);
}
This is causing a NullPointerException
at layout.addView(button)
. To tell the truth, it's the first time I'm trying to add content from code and not directly in xml, so I have no clue if I'm doing this right. I know that a View
must have at least the attributes layout_width
and layout_height
declared, so what is wrong here? Am I inflating wrong? Or do I find the error in the creation of the Button
?
