Let us suppose, there are two class1 and class2

In class1 define a method

public static View makeSpinner(Context context) {

    View v = LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.spinner, null);
    Spinner spinner = (Spinner) v.findViewById(R.id.spinner);
    ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(context, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    adapter.add("one");
    adapter.add("two");
    adapter.add("three");
    spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
    return v;
}

and in the class2 where u need to access the spinner define it's setContentView as below:-

setContentView(MainActivity.makeSpinner(getParent()));

I found a different solution.

My problem was that I had a MapView in the same activity as the spinner. Because of this I couldn't use the described technique.

And actually I didn't wanted to redesign my whole project so I just replaced my spinner in the XML-File with an FrameLayout.

Now my code looks like this:

Spinner spinner = new Spinner(isChild() ? getParent() : this);

ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(getParent(),
                                  android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, data);

adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
spinner.setAdapter(adapter);

FrameLayout frame = (FrameLayout)findViewById(R.id.frameLayoutSpinnerTarget);
frame.addView(spinner);
