Re: [android-developers] Extending LinearLayout / #getVirtualChild*

2012-10-16 Thread Romain Guy
You don't need to override these methods, otherwise they would be
public or protected. These methods are used by TableRow/TableLayout.
You don't need to worry about them, they are only meant for internal
use.

[android-developers] Extending LinearLayout / #getVirtualChild*

2012-10-16 Thread Max Hille
I am extending LinearLayout to have an easy way of building lists with 
header and footer views. While doing this, I want to maintain the 
LinearLayout's API (e.g. XML-added views). To do this, I have to override 
 and 
. These methods even state per source 
comment that they are meant to be overridden. The visibility of these 
methods is not  but , thus they have to be overridden 
with a  modifier and cannot be annotated with <@Override>.

Should my solution be considered API-abuse or should I consider the package 
visibility a bug in ?
Any more elegant solutions for building lists with with header / footer 
elements? (ListView won't work because I may need multiple lists in one 
scrollable layout).
