How to align 2 views in one layout , so one at most top and the other one on the most bottom

I have a linear layout on my view

it has 2 view inside it , one "button" and one "frameLayout"

making the gravity : "top" for the parent layout , positioning the 2 inside views on the most top

making the gravity : "bottom" for the parent layout , positioning the 2 inside views on the most bottom

how to set the button on the most bottom , and the "frameLayout" on the most top

my current codes :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="#FFF"
    android:minWidth="25px"
    android:minHeight="25px"
    android:gravity="bottom">
    <FrameLayout
        android:minWidth="25px"
        android:minHeight="25px"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/frameLayout1"
        android:layout_gravity="top">
        <ListView
            android:minWidth="25px"
            android:minHeight="25px"

You can use weight to achieve what you want.
Add android:layout_weight="1"
in the FrameLayout

</RelativeLayout>

use relative layout for your purposes, it allow much more control over relative positions
