Android: View.setID(int id) programmatically - how to avoid ID conflicts?

Question

I\'m adding TextViews programmatically in a for-loop and add them to an ArrayList.

How do I use TextView.setId(int id)? What Integer ID do I come up wit

Answer 1

public String TAG() {
    return this.getClass().getSimpleName();
}

private AtomicInteger lastFldId = null;

public int generateViewId(){

    if(lastFldId == null) {
        int maxFld = 0;
        String fldName = "";
        Field[] flds = R.id.class.getDeclaredFields();
        R.id inst = new R.id();

        for (int i = 0; i < flds.length; i++) {
            Field fld = flds[i];

            try {
                int value = fld.getInt(inst);

                if (value > maxFld) {
                    maxFld = value;
                    fldName = fld.getName();
                }
            } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
                Log.e(TAG(), "error getting value for \'"+ fld.getName() + "\' " + e.toString());
            }
        }
        Log.d(TAG(), "maxId="+maxFld +"  name="+fldName);
        lastFldId = new AtomicInteger(maxFld);
    }

    return lastFldId.addAndGet(1);
}
