How to get the reference of a dynamically created Edittext when you click it?

Question

I created some Textviews and Edittexts dynamically as in the code below:

public void criaForm(){
    for (int i = 0; i < vet.length; i++) {

        TextView tv = new TextView(this);
        tv.setText(paises[i])
        layout.addView(tv);

        EditText et = new EditText(this);
        et.setId(i+x);
        layout.addView(et);
    }
      x = x+3;
}

In my case the vector size is 3 and create 3 Textview and Edittexts on the screen. I create an id for each one, however when I run, on the screen it’s like there’s only 1 Edittext, in this case the last one, the 3rd one. it is as if the others did not exist,does anyone know how to solve this problem? I thank you already.

Answer 1

A View reference that has been clicked is passed by reference to the method that processes the event:

public void click(View view)

Now, this other problem is the fault of the layout, you must be using a Framelayout, which stretches the daughters Views to occupy the whole space.

See more layouts: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/declaring-layout.html#CommonLayouts

Answer 2

The layout of the Views will depend on the type of parent Layout they were added to. As you see only 1 Edittext, please note that you are adding them to one Framelayout, that puts one element on top of the other... Linearlayout that when configured to have VERTICAL orientation, the child elements will be under each other, which should be what you are waiting for.

So check the type of 'layout' that you have.
