View Flipper : Compile time or run time?

Question

In view flipper if we specify 10 imageviews as the child, are the image views loaded to the viewflipper at runtime ? Or it is like at build time, the view flipper is inflated and the image views are populated in a array of sort and the array is used at run time ?

Answer 1

I think imageviews are added at build time.

You can try this..

• Make 10 image view and make height of ViewFlipper to wrap content
• now fix the height of first 9 image view to say 50dip, and for 10th image view use length of say 100 dip
• You will notice that Vieflipper take the height of 100dip

That's is why, My perception is that it will load at build time. :)
