I've been attempting to use the <include> tag in some layouts and it seems that these are of limited use because of the flat namespace of the R.id.x approach.
Suppose I have a layout (attribs and xml namespace decl omitted for clarity). component.xml <LinearLayout android:id="@+id/row" > <ImageView android:id="@+id/image" /> <TextView android:id="@+id/text" /> </LinearLayout> Now include this twice inside a 'parent' view flipper.xml <ViewFlipper android:id="@+id/flipper" > <include android:id="@+id/row1" android:layout="component" /> <include android:id="@+id/row2" android:layout="component" /> </ViewFlipper> Now in my java code I have a conundrum. I am not able to identify each individual instance o f the children included layouts root view. In the include tags I can replace the root id with "row1" and "row2" so I can find the individual linear layouts using findViewById eg: LinearLayout row1 = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.row1) LinearLayout row2 = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.row2) However, I can't easily access the two instances of the TextView which are children of row1 and row2 because all I have to play with is the single id "text" ie: TextView text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text); In this case, which instance (row1.text or row2.text) does this refer to, both of them, or none? I guess I would need to use another means of accessing the children of row1 and row2. Anyone know how this can be done?
