Get id for views that are added dynamically

Question

How to get the identifier of the views that are dynamically added to the layout?

public class Display { static int i; Dynamic_UIActivity dyn; private Context context; View mField= null; TextView text; protected int mYear; protected int mMonth; protected int mDay; LinearLayout ll; Mynewdialog dialognew; public Display(Context mcontext) { context=mcontext; ll = new LinearLayout(mcontext); ll.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL); dyn = new Dynamic_UIActivity(); } public void addLabel(String text) { TextView textview = new TextView(context); textview.setText(text); ll.addView(textview); } public void addField(String Type,String Tag) { mField.setId(i); i++; if(Type.equalsIgnoreCase("text")) { mField= new EditText(context); mField.setTag(Tag); //int id = mField.getResources().getIdentifier((String) mField.getTag(),"id" ,dyn.getPackageName()); //EditText edit = (EditText)mField.findViewById(1); ll.addView(mField); } if(Type.equalsIgnoreCase("datepicker")) { mField=new EditText(context); ((EditText) mField).setText("Pick Date"); ll.addView(mField); mField.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { dialognew = new Mynewdialog(context); dialognew.dialog_obj((EditText) mField); } }); } } protected DatePickerDialogWithEditText.OnDateSetListener mdatepickerdialog = new DatePickerDialogWithEditText.OnDateSetListener() { public void onDateSet(DatePicker view , int year , int month, int date) { mYear = year; mMonth = month; mDay = date; dialognew.showdialogtext(); } }; } class DatePickerDialogWithEditText extends DatePickerDialog { EditText tv; DatePickerDialogWithEditText(Context c, OnDateSetListener oD, int y, int m, int d, EditText tv) { super(c, oD, y, m, d); this.tv = tv; } EditText getAssociatedTextView() { return tv; } } class Mynewdialog { private Context context; Display dis = new Display(context); private DatePickerDialogWithEditText dialog; public Mynewdialog(Context mcontext) { context=mcontext; } public void dialog_obj(EditText editTextView) { final Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(); dis.mYear = cal.get(Calendar.YEAR); dis.mMonth = cal.get(Calendar.MONTH); dis.mDay = cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH); dialog = new DatePickerDialogWithEditText(context, dis.mdatepickerdialog, dis.mYear, dis.mMonth, dis.mDay, editTextView); dialog.show(); } public void showdialogtext() { EditText et = dialog.getAssociatedTextView(); et.setText(new StringBuilder().append(dis.mDay).append("-").append(dis.mMonth).append("-").append(dis.mYear)); } } 

now I want to set the identifier of the views I get by checking its type? How can i do this?

Answer 1

You can do this using the getId () and setId () methods in the view.

For example:

 TextView txtView = new TextView(this); txtView.setId(4); 

and you can get the identifier using the getId () method:

 txtView.getId(); 

Answer 2

or you can add all (dynamically created) views to an ArrayList and then access it.
