Hello, Thanks all for your input. I actually wanted to know how to grab all the children of a layout- manager parent so that I can set an attribute programmatically, In my case, it was to set the layout_width of each child depending on the screen size which I assume cannot be determined at the XML level.
If there are better ways, please do let me know. Otherwise, I will go with Mark's suggestion on using getChildCount() and getChildAt() methods. Thanks!
