Align text left, checkbox right

Question

I'm trying to create a layout for a ListView, with a checkbox to the right and some text to the left. The checkbox should be aligned all the way to the right and the TextView aligned all the way to left of the row, eg:

 ------------------------  text            checkbox  ------------------------  text            checkbox  ------------------------  text            checkbox  ------------------------ 

This is what I have so far:

 <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"       android:layout_width="fill_parent"       android:layout_height="fill_parent"       android:orientation="vertical"       android:paddingLeft="5dip"       android:paddingRight="5dip"       android:paddingTop="8dip"      android:paddingBottom="8dip" >  <TextView       android:id="@+id/text"     android:layout_width="wrap_content"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:gravity="left"  />  <CheckBox      android:id="@+id/chekcbox"     android:layout_width="wrap_content"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:gravity="right"   />    </RelativeLayout> 

However, what actually renders is the TextBox is overlaying the checkbox, to the left of the row.

And to get the checkbox's box to the right , in check box attributes

android:button="@null" android:drawableRight="?android:attr/listChoiceIndicatorMultiple"
