Set selected index of an Android RadioGroup

Question

Is there a way to set the selected index of a RadioGroup in android, other than looping through the child radiobuttons and selecting checking the radio button at the selected in

Answer 1

This Worked For me, I created radio button dynamically by

  private void createRadioButton() {

    RadioButton[] rb = new RadioButton[5];

    RadioGroup.LayoutParams layoutParams = new RadioGroup.LayoutParams(
            ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
            ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
            1.0f);

    radioGroup.setOrientation(RadioGroup.HORIZONTAL);

    for (int ID = 0; ID < 5; ID++) {
        rb[ID] = new RadioButton(this);
        rb[ID].setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
        rb[ID].setText("Button_Text");
        radioGroup.addView(rb[ID]); //the RadioButtons are added to the radioGroup instead of the layout
    }
}

Now Check a button using,

int radio_button_Id = radioGroup.getChildAt(index).getId();

radioGroup.check( radio_button_Id );
