How do I set the background of an Activity with code?

I'm currently using the XML layout to set my Activity background. How can I do this in the Java code instead?

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:orientation="vertical" 
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent" 
    android:background="@drawable/bg" >

Before calling Activity.setContentView(View) use one of the setBackground...() methods on your main View.

Set an id attribute to your parent RelativeLayout. Than find it by id in activity code and use setBackgroundResource method.
