Why can't you do something like this:
public class A extends Activity
{
private RadiotButton _radio1;
protected void onCreate(Bundle bundle)
{
setContentView(your.layout.id)
_radio1 = findViewById(R.id.RadioButton01);
}
public void doSomethingLater()
{
//Do something here with the radio button...
_radio1.setChecked(true);
}
}
