Get "getText()" from child of type TextView within a custom ViewGroup at runtime

Question

How is it possible to get "getText()" from child of type TextView within a custom ViewGroup at runtime?

Answer 1

((TextView)viewGroup.getChildAt(indexOfTextView)).getText();

Where viewGroup is the ViewGroup containing the TextView and indexOfTextView is the index in that group.

Make sure to cast the view returned from the getChildAt method to A TextView before calling getText().
