Center a WebView Programmatically

I am creating my controls programmatically, based on JSON received from a server. One of the controls I need to create is a WebView that is horizontally centred on the screen. This is simple in xml layouts as shown below using the layout_gravity option. But how do you do this in code, the WebView unlike TextView does not have a setGravity(Gravity.HORIZONTAL_GRAVITY_MASK) method.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >

<WebView 
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center"/>

</LinearLayout>

I would use a RelativeLayout, then you can use LayoutParams when adding the view:

RelativeLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams= new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT);
layoutParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_IN_PARENT, 1);
relativeLayout.addView(yourWebView, layoutParams);

i use LinearLayout to show webview and setGravity.

       LinearLayout linearLayout = new LinearLayout(this);
    linearLayout.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
            LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT));
    linearLayout.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
    WebView view = new WebView(this);
    linearLayout.addView(view);
    setContentView(linearLayout);

it help you.
