Is there any example, how to inject an anko generated view/layout into a layout inflated from XML? I have a placeholder (

FrameLayout

) in my XML layout and I want to populate it with an unknown number of `TextView`s, programmatically, at runtime. I tried something like:

placeholder.addView(xxx)

, where xxx is a VerticalLayout created using anko, but I am getting the Exception:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: The specified child already has a parent

I create the VerticalLayout with this function:

fun createTextViews() : View {
        return verticalLayout {
            textView {
                text = "TextView 1"
            }

            textView {
                text = "TextView 2"
            }
        }

    }

maybe you can try to do this example

You mean, the problem is that I am creating the views in a function and not in-place?

maybe

I tried this:

placeholder.addView( this.linearLayout { textView("Text 1")  })

and I am getting the same Exception.

and if you try like this:

This is (almost) correct! Here is my version:

and it’s working?

Yes

good

Thanks!
