Sorry about the late response.
Here's what I meant by the potential casting problem; In order to add the ImageView variable, which was created to handle the Drawable resource, you need to cast the parent layout, which is of type ImageView, to ViewGroup type if you're planning to use the addView() method. I've tried this already and got into trouble with the "casting" ... I guess it's because ViewGroup is an abstract class.
