public virtual Android.Views.View? Inflate (System.Xml.XmlReader? parser, Android.Views.ViewGroup? root);

abstract member Inflate : System.Xml.XmlReader * Android.Views.ViewGroup -> Android.Views.View
override this.Inflate : System.Xml.XmlReader * Android.Views.ViewGroup -> Android.Views.View

Parameters

parser

XmlReader

XML dom node containing the description of the view hierarchy.

root

ViewGroup

Returns

View

The root View of the inflated hierarchy. If root was supplied, this is the root View; otherwise it is the root of the inflated XML file.

Inflate a new view hierarchy from the specified xml node. Throws InflateException if there is an error. *

<em><strong>Important</strong></em>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For performance reasons, view inflation relies heavily on pre-processing of XML files that is done at build time. Therefore, it is not currently possible to use LayoutInflater with an XmlPullParser over a plain XML file at runtime.

Inflate(Int32, ViewGroup, Boolean)

Inflate a new view hierarchy from the specified xml resource.

[Android.Runtime.Register("inflate", "(ILandroid/view/ViewGroup;Z)Landroid/view/View;", "GetInflate_ILandroid_view_ViewGroup_ZHandler")]
public virtual Android.Views.View? Inflate (int resource, Android.Views.ViewGroup? root, bool attachToRoot);

Parameters

resource

Int32

ID for an XML layout resource to load (e.g., R.layout.main_page)

root

Whether the inflated hierarchy should be attached to the root parameter? If false, root is only used to create the correct subclass of LayoutParams for the root view in the XML.
