How to Inflate view from XML in Android?

I'm creating a tableLayout [given in XML]

adding table Row [created in XML and inflating in Java]

also adding 2 textview to the table Row [created in XML and inflating in JAVA]

I'm able to get only the background and textcolors but not the layout properties like width, height and margin to get table view.

  1. First declare your inflater.

    LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)getApplicationContext().getSystemService
  (Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);

  2. Identify and inflate the new view you seek to project on the current view.

    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.new_layout,null);

  3. You would want to add your new inflated view to your layout.

    main.addView(view);

You can reference additional information here: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/LayoutInflater.html

Update May 2019 (Kotlin): This is how you would inflate a view from XML in Kotlin. this is referring to an activity.

val view = this.layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.dialog_upgrade, null)
mainLayout.addView(view)

LayoutInflater li = LayoutInflater.from(getApplicationContext());
View cv = li.inflate(R.layout.your_layout, null);

mainlayout.addView(cv);
