I want to dynamically pull in a layout from an external source.
As discussed in this thread from September 2009 -
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/bfec246d0537ec6b/6c31a85779d86a3e?lnk=gst&q=inflate+from+xmlpullparser#6c31a85779d86a3e
I am wondering if the situation has changed since this discussion or
if it is likely to change.
I understand the need to use pre-compiled xml layouts so if there is
an option to dynamically pull in a layout that is already compiled
that would be fine.
Basically I want a setup where I can change a view layout without an
app update. The elements within the view would be fairly static (e.g.
there will be 2 buttons call foo and bar that fire fooOnClick and
barOnClick).
The only work around I can think of is a custom scripting language
that allows the definition of views that are created from code.
Ideally this would parse the same xml as a standard layout. Obviously
this would involve a lot of code and probably be fairly slow.
Button btnFoo = new Button();
btnFoo.setText("foo");
dynamicLayout.addView(btnFoo);
If this is the only option at least the EdsMagicLayoutInflater class
would be reusable across projects.
Cheers,
Ed
