Let us keep aside the fact that I'm using a custom view. Consider a normal case, where I am using an existing Android view, for example AnalogClock class in my layout. Is there anyway I can call a public method of AnalogClock Class through the remote view? I need to dynamically update something in the AnalogClock and that needs to be reflected in the remote view. Any help would be really appreciated.
