How to set ImageView and the textView in a single line inside a LinearLayout

I'm struggling to set an imageView and a textView in a single line inside LinearLayout. I tried with different ways but still I couldn't find a proper solution. Here is the code I used: 

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="40dp"
    android:clickable="true"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:paddingLeft="40dp"
    tools:context=".MainActivity" >

    <ImageView 
        android:id="@+id/icon_image"
        android:layout_width="30sp"
        android:layout_height="30sp"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:adjustViewBounds="true"
        android:layout_gravity="bottom"
        android:scaleType="fitXY"
        android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher"/>

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:drawablePadding="5dp"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:gravity="center_vertical"
        android:textSize="14sp"
        android:textStyle="bold" >
    </TextView>

    <View
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="1dp"
        android:background="@android:color/black" />

</LinearLayout>

This is how it is appear : enter image description here

What should I have to do to make correct this?

Use android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" for your textview

You can try enclosing your ImageViews and TextViews inside a TableLayout 

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="40dp"
android:clickable="true"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingLeft="40dp"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >

<TableLayout 
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">

<TableRow>

<ImageView 
    android:id="@+id/icon_image"
    android:layout_width="30sp"
    android:layout_height="30sp"
    android:layout_weight="1"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"
    android:layout_gravity="bottom"
    android:scaleType="fitXY"
    android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher"/>

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:drawablePadding="5dp"
    android:layout_weight="1"
    android:gravity="center_vertical"
    android:textSize="14sp"
    android:textStyle="bold" />
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
<View
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="1dp"
    android:background="@android:color/black" />

You need to change the linearylayout's orientation. Just change android:orientation="vertical"

to 

android:orientation="horizontal"

I suggest to use a RelativeLayout. That way you can add more items vertically as well.

Its inside of a LinearLayout with a vertical orientation so naturally everything is stacked "vertically". Wrap them in a LinearLayout with a horizontal orientation

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="40dp"
android:clickable="true"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingLeft="40dp"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >
<LinearLayout
    .../>
<ImageView 
    android:id="@+id/icon_image"
    android:layout_width="30sp"
    android:layout_height="30sp"
    android:layout_weight="1"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"
    android:layout_gravity="bottom"
    android:scaleType="fitXY"
    android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher"/>

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:drawablePadding="5dp"
    android:layout_weight="1"
    android:gravity="center_vertical"
    android:textSize="14sp"
    android:textStyle="bold" >
</TextView>
</LinearLayout>
<View
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="1dp"
    android:background="@android:color/black" />

</LinearLayout>

By default, LinearLayout has a horizontal orientation so no need to supply that property in the child LinearLayout which wraps the two Views.
