I use a view which has RelativeLayout -> ScrollView -> LinearLayout. I get exception:

Why does it happen only occassionally? Why is there no detail of where the code failed?
Update: I suspect it should fail around this code:
EditText input = new EditText(context);
input.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT));
LayoutParams is RelativeLayout.LayoutParams
ViewGroup is a collection of Views(TextView, EditText, ListView, etc..), somewhat like a container. A View object is a component of the user interface (UI) like a button or a text box, and it's also called a widget.
In android (and most other technologies), views can have subviews, aka "children". Most views can have children and can be a child of a parent view. It's kind of like a "tree". The most obvious feature of being a child of some other view is that the child moves with the parent view.
View is a basic building block of UI (User Interface) in android. A view is a small rectangular box which responds to user inputs. Eg: EditText , Button , CheckBox , etc.. ViewGroup is a invisible container of other views (child views) and other viewgroups.
Android supports the following ViewGroups: LinearLayout. AbsoluteLayout. TableLayout.
Use new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(...) instead of new LayoutParams(...)
You always need to use the parent layout's class for the LayoutParams. E.g. if EditText is inside FrameLayout then FrameLayout.LayoutParams must be used.
