Make a inflation and write text in edittext simultaneously

Question

Hy everybody.

I need to verify if the content of a string is null or not. If the string is != null I make a performClick in a imageButton. This click make a inflate of layout in another layout. Then I need to write text in the editText that was inflated, but I can't. Is not possible to do a inflation and write text in editText inflated simultaneously.

Here is my code

if(sApelido != ""){
         inflater = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
         b = (LinearLayout)inflater.inflate(R.layout.socio_form_structured_name,null);
         lLayout = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.main_layout_id7);
         lLayout = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.layout.socio_form_structured_name);
         lLayout.addView(b);




        apelido.setText(null);      //Write in one of the editText's that was inflated
    apelido.setText(sApelido);  //apelido is a editText that belongs to LinearLayout b
}

I don't know if you understand my question Thanks for your help.

You'll have to be more specific as to the exact problem with your code, but one possible problem is that you should be using .equals() to compare String values, not the != operator.

Try using the following instead. I like to use

if (sApelido != null && !sApelido.equals(""))
{
    //your logic
}

Hy wsanville.I update my question. I also try this way but don't work. If I do only thge inflation only it works. But if i do the inflation and try to write in editText inflated simultaneously don't work :S – Ricardo Filipe Jul 23 '12 at 15:36
resolve the problem. I was to get the editText before the if. My code now is if(!sApelido.equals("")){ imbtMore = (ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.se_ivMore); imbtMore.performClick(); apelido = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.sfsn_etStructuredNameApelido); apelido.setText(null); apelido.setText(sApelido); } Thanks for your help anyway :) – Ricardo Filipe Jul 23 '12 at 15:57

and to write in the inflated view you could just use something like this :

    public View displayEditText(){
    View v = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.edit_text_layout, null);
    EditText editText = (EditText) v.findViewById(R.id.edit_text);
    editText.setText(sApelido)
    return v;
    }

then just add the View to your layout or wherever you want to display it.
