How do I add a view to a viewParent programmatically?

Question

I have an xml layout file as shown below

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/homeCoordinatorLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivitys.ViewPager.Fragments.Home">
    <com.yalantis.phoenix.PullToRefreshView
        android:id="@+id/pull_to_refresh"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">
        <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
            android:id="@+id/fragment_dashboard_recycler"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent">
        </android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView>
    </com.yalantis.phoenix.PullToRefreshView>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

I want to add a view to the container of the pulltorefresh programmatically, I have added it to my coordinator as shown below but I do not know how to add it to my pulltorefresh any ideas?

 CoordinatorLayout coordinatorLayout=(CoordinatorLayout)view.findViewById(R.id.homeCoordinatorLayout);
        ImageView imageView=new ImageView(getActivity());
        imageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.ufo);

Answer 1

coordinatorLayout.addView(imageView);
