I want load some Custom Views within my RelativeLayout
but don't know how. The code I've tried doesn't work hence does anyone know how to do this correctly?

Shapes.java
public class Shapes extends android.support.v4.app.Fragment {
public Shapes() {
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, @Nullable ViewGroup container, @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.shapes, container, false);
}
@Override
public void onActivityCreated(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View v = getView();
assert v != null;
//blue shape drawing
View cv0 = (View)v.findViewById(R.id.drawing0);
v.addView(new BlueShape(getActivity()));
//green shape drawing
View cv1 = (View)v.findViewById(R.id.drawing1);
v.addView(new GreenShape(getActivity()));
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
}
}
BlueShape.java
public class BlueShape extends View {
private final Paint mBlue = new Paint();
...
}
GreenShape.java
public class GreenShape extends View {
private final Paint mGreen = new Paint();
...
}
refer to https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/custom-components.html
specifically under
Modifying an Existing View Type
- Use the Custom Component
you can change the xml in your RelativeLayout
<View...
to
<your.package.GreenShape...
if you do not know beforehand what the View is going to be, then change it to
<FrameLayout... instead of <View...
and then add the child (GreenShape or BlueShape) programmatically to that Frame layout
