scroll view programmatically

Question

I would need to create a scrollview directly from Java code so I wrote this code (which I use in an AlertDialog).

TextView myTextView = new TextView(context);
myTextView.setText("Very long text" + longTextVariable);
ScrollView scroll = new ScrollView(context);
scroll.setBackgroundColor(android.R.color.transparent);
scroll.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT));
builder.setView(myTextView);
builder.setView(scroll);

But it doesn't work because I do not see anything. To make you understand what I'm doing I tell you simply that I need to display text that very long without scroll view are "cut".

try this:

ScrollView scrlView = new ScrollView(this);
scrlView.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(
    ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
    ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

TextView txt = new TextView(this);
txt.setText("test");
scrlView.addView(txt);

setContentView(scrlView);

You are setting the myTextView first as view in the builder and then replace it with scroll. That way you only have a empty scrollview.

You need to add the myTextView to the scrollview, then add the scrollview to the builder.
