LayoutInflater的使用详解

      LayoutInflater可以动态载入界面，在开发过程中是经常会使用到的一个类。下面是开发文档中对这个类的解释：

Instantiates a layout XML file into its corresponding View objects. It is never used directly. Instead, use getLayoutInflater() or getSystemService(String) to retrieve a standard LayoutInflater instance that is already hooked up to the current context and correctly configured for the device you are running on. 

       即LayoutInflater可以讲一个layout的xml文件实例化，我们需要通过getLayoutInflater（）或者getSystemService（String）方法来得到一个LayoutInflater实例，得到这个实例后我们可以通过相应的方法来实例化一个xml文件。以下是最常用的方法：

public View inflate (int resource, ViewGroup root)

Added in API level 1

Inflate a new view hierarchy from the specified xml resource. Throws InflateException if there is an error.

Parameters

resource	ID for an XML layout resource to load (e.g., R.layout.main_page)
root	Optional view to be the parent of the generated hierarchy.

Returns

• The root View of the inflated hierarchy. If root was supplied, this is the root View; otherwise it is the root of the inflated XML file.

       可以看到有两个参数，分别是resource和root，其中resource 是我们想进行实例化的xml文件的id，而关于root的解释请看http://blog.csdn.net/xpsharp/article/details/7165679

下面是一个小的demo，方便理解

package com.xidian.layoutinflater;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
	private Button btn;

	@Override
	protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
		super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
		setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
		btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn);
		
		LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater();
		final View another = inflater.inflate(R.layout.another, null);
		TextView tv = (TextView)another.findViewById(R.id.tv);
		ImageView img = (ImageView)another.findViewById(R.id.img);
		tv.setText("第二个布局");
		img.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
		btn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

			@Override
			public void onClick(View v) {
				// TODO Auto-generated method stub
				new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this)
				.setView(another)
				.show();
			}
		});
	}

}

another xml文件：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/img"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" />

</LinearLayout>
