Android TableLayout in Kotlin

The TableLayout in Android is a layout where child views are organized in rows and columns. It's useful for creating grids or tabular layouts.

Here's a simple example of how you can use TableLayout in an Android app with Kotlin:

XML Layout (res/layout/activity_main.xml):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:padding="16dp"
    android:stretchColumns="1">

    <!-- Row 1 -->
    <TableRow>
        <TextView
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:text="Key" />

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:text="Value" />
    </TableRow>

    <!-- Row 2 -->
    <TableRow>
        <TextView
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:text="Name" />

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:text="John Doe" />
    </TableRow>

    <!-- Add more rows as needed -->
</TableLayout>

Note that we're using android:stretchColumns="1" which ensures the second column (0-indexed) stretches to fill any available space.

Kotlin Code (MainActivity.kt):

Here's a basic MainActivity for the layout:

import android.os.Bundle
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
    }
}

This is a static example, but you can also add rows dynamically in Kotlin by creating TableRow instances programmatically, populating them with child views, and then adding them to the TableLayout.

Remember to modify the AndroidManifest.xml to specify the MainActivity:

<activity android:name=".MainActivity">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>

This is a basic example. Depending on your requirements, you might need to add more attributes or handle user interactions programmatically in Kotlin.

Creating a simple TableLayout in Android with Kotlin:

<TableLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <!-- Rows and cells go here -->

</TableLayout>

Android TableLayout rows and columns in Kotlin:

<TableRow
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

    <!-- Cells go here -->

</TableRow>

Programmatically adding rows to TableLayout in Android Kotlin:

val tableLayout = findViewById<TableLayout>(R.id.tableLayout)

val tableRow = TableRow(this)
// Add cells to the TableRow
// ...

tableLayout.addView(tableRow)

Adding views to TableLayout dynamically in Kotlin:

val tableRow = TableRow(this)

val textView = TextView(this)
textView.text = "Cell Content"
// Customize TextView attributes
// ...

tableRow.addView(textView)

TableLayout with TableRow and TextView in Android Kotlin:

<TableLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <TableRow>
        <TextView
            android:text="Cell 1"
            android:padding="8dp"/>
        <TextView
            android:text="Cell 2"
            android:padding="8dp"/>
        <!-- Add more cells as needed -->
    </TableRow>

    <!-- Add more rows as needed -->

</TableLayout>
