What Has To Be Used, Content_main Or Activity_main?
Since after the new update in Android studio, the addition of the XML files has brought some confusion. While setting the parameters for setContentView(), which XML has to be used
Solution 1:
While setting the parameters for setContentView, which XML has to be typed ? Content_main or Activity_main ?
You should use content_main.xml
to put your views but pass
activity_main.xml
as the parameter to you setContentView()
method.
activity_main.xml
is used to display coordinatorLayout, tabLayout, floatingActionButton, viewPager etc.
content_main.xml
is used to display your stuff i.e. what you want to display to users.
And if I want to add an Layout file (XML) do I have to create 2 files with the same name ?
Totally depends on the nature of the activity you are creating the layout for. The difference above will help you decide whether you need two or one.
