To display a button in an activity, add a button to the activity's layout XML file:
* ** <Button * android:id="@+id/button_id" * android:layout_height="wrap_content" * android:layout_width="wrap_content" * android:text="@string/self_destruct" />* *
To specify an action when the button is pressed, set a click * listener on the button object in the corresponding activity code:
* *
* public class MyActivity extends Activity {
* protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
* super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
*
* setContentView(R.layout.content_layout_id);
*
* final Button button = findViewById(R.id.button_id);
* button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
* public void onClick(View v) {
* // Code here executes on main thread after user presses button
* }
* });
* }
* }
*
* The above snippet creates an instance of {@link android.view.View.OnClickListener} and wires * the listener to the button using * {@link #setOnClickListener setOnClickListener(View.OnClickListener)}. * As a result, the system executes the code you write in {@code onClick(View)} after the * user presses the button.
* *The system executes the code in {@code onClick} on the * main thread. * This means your onClick code must execute quickly to avoid delaying your app's response * to further user actions. See * Keeping Your App Responsive * for more details.
* *Every button is styled using the system's default button background, which is often * different from one version of the platform to another. If you are not satisfied with the * default button style, you can customize it. For more details and code samples, see the * Styling Your Button * guide.
* *For all XML style attributes available on Button see * {@link android.R.styleable#Button Button Attributes}, * {@link android.R.styleable#TextView TextView Attributes}, * {@link android.R.styleable#View View Attributes}. See the * Styles and Themes * guide to learn how to implement and organize overrides to style-related attributes.
