dynamically adding edittext depending on the elements of json array

Question

I am trying to fetch data from json array and display in edittext but i want to represent each element in seperate edittest,when the json array contains more than one element all the elements are single eddittext,how can i dynamicallly add edittext based on number of elements in the array

final String[] mList = assetName.split("\\|");
final String[] mListnumber = assetNumber.split("\\|");
for(i=0;i<mList.length;i++){
    LayoutInflater inflater=(LayoutInflater)getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
    final View child=inflater.inflate(R.layout.childlayout,null);
    EditText title1=(EditText)child.findViewById(R.id.et_armoryname);
    EditText title2=(EditText)child.findViewById(R.id.et_armorynumber);
    //EditText title3 = (EditText)child.findViewById(R.id.et_qr);

    title1.setText(mList[i]);
    title2.setText(mListnumber[i]);

}

Use below Code to add EditText Dynamically into your parent Layout ,Pass Parent Layout Object in below method I have taken LinearLayout.

final String[] mList = assetName.split("\\|");
final String[] mListnumber = assetNumber.split("\\|");

make sure your mList Array and mListnumber Array length should be same other wise it may cause for ArrayIndexOutOfException.

private void addEditTextDynamically(LinearLayout mParentLayout, String[] myList) 
{
  for (int i = 0; i < myList.length; i++) 
   {
     EditText myEditText = new EditText (mParentLayout.getContext()); //Context
     myEditText.setLayoutParams(new      LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
     myEditText.setId(i);
     myEditText.setTag(myList[i]);
     myEditText.setText(myList[i] + " number" + mListnumber [i]);
     myEditText.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#785412"));
     mParentLayout.addView(myEditText);
    }
}
