How can I create a border around an Android LinearLayout?

Question

I have one big layout, and one smaller layout inside of it.

How do I create a line border around the small layout?

Answer 1

you can do it Pragmatically also

  GradientDrawable gradientDrawable=new GradientDrawable();
   gradientDrawable.setStroke(4,getResources().getColor(R.color.line_Input));

Then set the background of layout as :

LinearLayout layout = (LinearLayout ) findViewById(R.id.ayout); layout .setBackground(gradientDrawable);
