Programmatically adding TableRow to TableLayout not working

Question

I'm trying to add table rows programmatically following the code here

    /* Find Tablelayout defined in main.xml */
    TableLayout tl = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.SaleOrderLines);
    /* Create a new row to be added. */
    TableRow tr = new TableRow(this);
    tr.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
    /* Create a Button to be the row-content. */
    Button b = new Button(this);
    b.setText("Dynamic Button");
    b.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
    /* Add Button to row. */
    tr.addView(b);
    /* Add row to TableLayout. */
    //tr.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.sf_gradient_03);
    tl.addView(tr, new TableLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

But but nothing is drawn to the screen. (same as one mentioned here)

When i added tr.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.sf_gradient_03);, the row with the background image is drawn but not the button

Here is my Layout

<!-- Sale Order Lines START -->
<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/SaleOrderLinesArea" android:orientation="vertical"
     android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"

Answer 1

Got it, every LayoutParams should be of android.widget.TableRow.LayoutParams except one that supplied to tl.addView(...)

/* Find Tablelayout defined in main.xml */
TableLayout tl = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.SaleOrderLines);
/* Create a new row to be added. */
TableRow tr = new TableRow(this);
tr.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
/* Create a Button to be the row-content. */
Button b = new Button(this);
b.setText("Dynamic Button");
b.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
/* Add Button to row. */
tr.addView(b);
/* Add row to TableLayout. */
//tr.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.sf_gradient_03);
tl.addView(tr, new TableLayout.LayoutParams(TableLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, TableLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

Please do note that, may be your code is perfect but the classes you are using are not proper. You may have used import android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams , where as the correct class is available from following import statement :

import android.widget.TableRow.LayoutParams
