Layout Resource

SEE ALSO

  1. Layouts

A layout resource defines the architecture for the UI in an Activity or a component of a UI.

FILE LOCATION:
  res/layout/filename.xml
  The filename will be used as the resource ID.
COMPILED RESOURCE DATATYPE:
  Resource pointer to a View (or subclass) resource.
RESOURCE REFERENCE:
  In Java: R.layout.filename
  In XML: @[package:]layout/filename
语法示例
SYNTAX: 
 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ViewGroup xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@[+][package:]id/resource_name"
android:layout_height=["dimension" | "fill_parent" | "wrap_content"]
android:layout_width=["dimension" | "fill_parent" | "wrap_content"]
[ViewGroup-specific attributes] >
<View
android:id="@[+][package:]id/resource_name"
android:layout_height=["dimension" | "fill_parent" | "wrap_content"]
android:layout_width=["dimension" | "fill_parent" | "wrap_content"]
[View-specific attributes] >
<requestFocus/>
</View>
<ViewGroup >
<View />
</ViewGroup>
<include layout="@layout/layout_resource"/>
</ViewGroup>

Note: The root element can be either a ViewGroup, a View, or a <merge> element, but there must be only one root element and it must contain the xmlns:android attribute with the android namespace as shown.

ELEMENTS:
<ViewGroup>
desc

A container for other View elements. There are many different kinds of ViewGroup objects and each one lets you specify the

layout of the child elements in different ways. Different kinds of ViewGroup objects include LinearLayoutRelativeLayout,

and  FrameLayout. You should not assume that any derivation of ViewGroup will accept nested Views. Some ViewGroups are

implementations of the  AdapterView class, which determines its children only from an Adapter.

android:id

Resource ID. A unique resource name for the element, which you can use to obtain a reference to the ViewGroup from your

application. See more about the value for android:id below.

android:layout_height

Dimension or keyword. Required. The height for the group, as a dimension value (or dimension resource) or a keyword

("fill_parent" or "wrap_content"). See the valid values below.

android:layout_width

Dimension or keyword. Required. The width for the group, as a dimension value (or dimension resource) or a keyword

("fill_parent"  or "wrap_content"). See the valid values below.

other

More attributes are supported by the ViewGroup base class, and many more are supported by each implementation of ViewGroup.

For a reference of all available attributes, see the corresponding reference documentation for the ViewGroup class (for example,

the LinearLayout XML attributes).

<View>
desc An individual UI component, generally referred to as a "widget". Different kinds of View objects include TextViewButton, and CheckBox.
android:id

Resource ID. A unique resource name for the element, which you can use to obtain a reference to the View from your application.

See more about the value for android:id below.

android:layout_height

Dimension or keyword. Required. The height for the element, as a dimension value (or dimension resource) or a keyword

("fill_parent" or "wrap_content"). See the valid values below.

android:layout_width

Dimension or keyword. Required. The width for the element, as a dimension value (or dimension resource) or a keyword

("fill_parent" or "wrap_content"). See the valid values below.

other

More attributes are supported by the View base class, and many more are supported by each implementation of View.

Read Layouts for more information. For a reference of all available attributes, see the corresponding reference

documentation (for example, the TextView XML attributes).

<requestFocus>
 

Any element representing a View object can include this empty element, which gives its parent initial focus on the screen.

You can have only one of these elements per file.

<include>
 desc Includes a layout file into this layout.
layout Layout resource. Required. Reference to a layout resource.
android:id Resource ID. Overrides the ID given to the root view in the included layout.
android:layout_height

Dimension or keyword. Overrides the height given to the root view in the included layout. Only effective if android:layout_width

is also declared.

android:layout_width

Dimension or keyword. Overrides the width given to the root view in the included layout. Only effective if android:layout_height is

also declared.

 

You can include any other layout attributes in the <include> that are supported by the root element in the included layout and they

will override those defined in the root element.

Caution: If you want to override layout attributes using the <include> tag, you must override bothandroid:layout_height and

android:layout_width in order for other layout attributes to take effect. Another way to include a layout is to use ViewStub.

It is a lightweight View that consumes no layout space until you explicitly inflate it, at which point, it includes a layout file defined by

itsandroid:layout attribute. For more information about using ViewStub, read Loading Views On Demand.

<merge>

  An alternative root element that is not drawn in the layout hierarchy. Using this as the root element is useful when you know that this layout will be placed into

a layout that already contains the appropriate parent View to contain the children of the <merge> element. This is particularly useful when you plan to include this

layout in another layout file using <include> and this layout doesn't require a different ViewGroup container. For more information about merging layouts, read

Re-using Layouts with <include/>.

Value for android:id

  For the ID value, you should usually use this syntax form: "@+id/name". The plus symbol, +, indicates that this is a new resource ID and the aapt tool will create a new resource integer in the R.java class, if it doesn't already exist. For example:

<TextView android:id="@+id/nameTextbox"/>

  The nameTextbox name is now a resource ID attached to this element. You can then refer to the TextViewto which the ID is associated in Java:

findViewById(R.id.nameTextbox);

  This code returns the TextView object.

However, if you have already defined an ID resource (and it is not already used), then you can apply that ID to a View element by excluding the plus symbol in the android:id value.

Value for android:layout_height and android:layout_width:

  The height and width value can be expressed using any of the dimension units supported by Android (px, dp, sp, pt, in, mm) or with the following keywords:

Value Description
match_parent Sets the dimension to match that of the parent element. Added in API Level 8 to deprecate fill_parent.
fill_parent Sets the dimension to match that of the parent element.
wrap_content Sets the dimension only to the size required to fit the content of this element.

Custom View elements

  You can create your own custom View and ViewGroup elements and apply them to your layout the same as a standard layout element. You can also specify the attributes supported in the XML element. To learn more, see the Custom Components developer guide.

EXAMPLE:
  XML file saved at res/layout/main_activity.xml:
 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView android:id="@+id/text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Hello, I am a TextView" />
<Button android:id="@+id/button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Hello, I am a Button" />
</LinearLayout>

This application code will load the layout for an Activity, in the onCreate() method:

 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main_activity);
}
