Android Custom Component View w/Rounded Corners

I'm trying to create a View with rounded corners (and a background color of choice) that I can reuse with different background colors; hard to explain, so here's my code:

/app/src/com/packagename/whatever/CustomDrawableView.java


package com.packagename.whatever;

import android.content.Context;
import android.content.res.TypedArray;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.graphics.drawable.PaintDrawable;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.view.View;

public class CustomDrawableView extends View {
    private PaintDrawable mDrawable;
    int radius;

    private void init(AttributeSet attrs) {
        TypedArray a = getContext().obtainStyledAttributes(attrs,R.styleable.RoundedRect);
        radius = a.getInteger(R.styleable.RoundedRect_radius, 0);
    }

    public CustomDrawableView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
        init(attrs);

        mDrawable = new PaintDrawable();
    }

    protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
        mDrawable.setCornerRadius(radius);
        mDrawable.draw(canvas);
    }
}

Here's the XML to display the custom component: /app/res/layout/test.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:ny="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.packagename.whatever"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:background="#ffffff"
    android:padding="10dp">

    <com.packagename.whatever.CustomDrawableView
        android:id="@+id/custom"
        android:layout_width="200dp"
        android:layout_height="200dp"
        android:background="#b80010"
        ny:radius="50"
    />

</LinearLayout>

I'm wanting the red box to have 50px rounded corners, but as you'll see, it does not:

Red box without rounded corners

The idea is that I could easily change the background color in the XML and automatically have a nice View with rounded corners, without having to create multiple drawables.

Thanks for the help!

You need to set your corner radius and color into the background drawable.

Here is one way that would work. Grab the color you set in android:background, then use it to create a new drawable that you set into the background in the constructor. This will work as long as you only set android:background to a color value. 

   public CustomDrawableView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
        init(attrs);

        // pull out the background color
        int color = attrs.getAttributeIntValue("http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android", "background", 0xffffffff);

        // create a new background drawable, set the color and radius and set it in place
        mDrawable = new PaintDrawable();
        mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(color);
        mDrawable.setCornerRadius(radius);
        setBackgroundDrawable(mDrawable);
    }

If you override onDraw, make sure you call super.onDraw(canvas) first to get the background drawn.

given a simple shapedrawable like this:

public ShapeDrawable Sd(int s){

float[] outerR = new float[] { 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12 };
ShapeDrawable mDrawable = new ShapeDrawable(new RoundRectShape(outerR, null,null));

            mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(s);
return mDrawable;
}

you can do the following:

    LinearLayout l=(LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.testLayout);
l.setBackgroundDrawable(Sd(0xff74AC23));

where the 12's represent the radius. you could apply this to any view for a background drawable.

Take a look at this question: How do I set the rounded corner radius of a color drawable using xml?

And perhaps also these two:
