Try this:

 btn = new Button(this);
 btn.setText("Hello Button");
 RelativeLayout.LayoutParams paramsd = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONT ENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
 paramsd.height = 60;
 paramsd.width = 60;
 btn.setLayoutParams(paramsd);
 addContentView(btn,paramsd);

Edit:

import android.widget.Button;

Add button

    Button b = new Button(this);
    b.setText("Button added dynamically!");
    b.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
    b.setId(MY_BUTTON);
    b.setOnClickListener(this);
    ll.addView(b);

Edit2: You could create LinearLayout linearLayout = new LinearLayout(this); and add Button

 Button btn = new Button(this);
 btn.setText("Just another button");
 linearLayout.addView(btn);

Edit3: another example:

  final Button button = new Button(this);
    button.setText("Press me!");
    setContentView(button);

    button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        }
    });

Huh? Just use XML. That you have this custom view is no barrier to its use. Here is a quick example of normal Android widgets in a layout with a custom widget:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tileview="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/net.rapacity.wizardry"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">
  <TextView
      android:id="@+id/sokostatus"
      android:layout_width="fill_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:text="@string/sokoban_status"/>
  <net.rapacity.wizardry.TileView
      android:id="@+id/sokomaze"
      android:layout_width="fill_parent"
      android:layout_height="fill_parent"
      tileview:tileSize="32"/>
</LinearLayout>
