split linearlayout width between wrap_content and the rest

I have a LinearLayout, horizontal, and with variable width (width is set to fill parent) containing two textboxs A and B.

I need : textbox B (the black one) takes as much width as it needs (wrap_content ?) textbox A takes what's left.

Pictures to illustrate :

Try the following code:

<?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="horizontal" >

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView1"
     android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_weight="1.35"
    android:text="TextView" />

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView2"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="asd" />

</LinearLayout>

use relativelayout instead.like this: 

<RelativeLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

    <!-- black box -->
    <TextView 
        android:id="@+id/txt1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:singleLine="true"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"/>

    <!-- white box -->
    <TextView 
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_toLeftOf="@+id/txt1"
        android:singleLine="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>

NOTE: i see in some device,because of language direction or device setting, linearlayout change children position. for example black text box come to left and white text box goes to right,but if use relativlayout it never happen.
