How to apply style to dynamically created EditText in android?

Question

I have one Button, and on every click of that button I want to create new EditText Dynamically.

Now my question is , I have one style in style.xml for EditText. Now how can I apply that style to this dynamically created EditText?

My Code for EditText is:

    List<EditText> allEdsLabReport ;
    String[] edsLabReport;
    EditText LabReportNm;

    AddMoreLabReport.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() 
        {
           @Override
           public void onClick(View v) 
           {

           LabReportNm = new EditText(CaseReport.this);

          allEdsLabReport.add(LabReportNm);

          TableLayout tbl2 = (TableLayout)findViewById(R.id.TableLayoutLabReport);
          TableRow tr1 = new TableRow(CaseReport.this);

          tr1.addView(LabReportNm);
          tbl2.addView(tr1);

      }
        });

I think Dynamic style change is not currently supported. You must set the style before the view is create (in xml). — Haresh Chhelana, Aug 27 '14 at 10:20
I came to know that Dynamic style change is not currently supported. So there is no reason to remain this question open. — Krupa Patel, Nov 06 '14 at 07:29
