Add multiple custom views to layout programmatically

Question

If I for example have empty layout like this:

layout1.xml

Answer 1

Try this method

Add id to LinearLayout 'layout1.xml':

In onCreate:

LinearLayout firstlayout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.firstlayout);

LinearLayout secondlayoout = (LinearLayout) this.getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.layout2, null); // inflating view from xml
TextView btn1 = (TextView) secondlayoout.findViewById(R.id.button1);
btn1.setText("TEST");

firstlayout.addView(secondlayoout);
