Add multiple custom views to layout programmatically

Question

If I for example have empty layout like this:

layout1.xml

Answer 1

layout1.xml contains ScrollView as parent layout and main LinearLayout as child if no row item more screen size ScrollView handle overflow item with scroll:

layout1.xml

Use LayoutInflater to add row item to parent LinearLayout:

private LinearLayout my_linear_layout;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.layout1);
    my_linear_layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.my_linear_layout);

    for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
        View view = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.layout2, null);
        TextView button1 = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.button1);
        Button button2 = (Button) view.findViewById(R.id.button2);
        TextView button3 = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.button3);

        button1.setText("HELLO " + i);
        button2.setText("HELLO " + i);
        button3.setText("HELLO " + i);
        my_linear_layout.addView(view);
    }
}
