How to add controls to a Tab Layout in Android?
- by chobo2
Hi
I am following this tutorial http://developer.android.com/intl/de/guide/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html and have completed it. Now I would actually like to add you know some controls to these tabs like textboxes(text edit).
How do I do this? I go to my mail.xml using eclipse as my ide and go to layout view and I now get a NullPointerException so I can't even drag stuff onto the layout anymore.
Thanks
Edit
This is what I have
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TabWidget
android:id="@android:id/tabs"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="@android:id/tabcontent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textview1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="this is a tab" />
<EditText android:text="" android:id="@+id/EditText01" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:password="true"></EditText>
</LinearLayout>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textview2"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="this is another tab" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textview3"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="this is a third tab" />
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</TabHost>
