For all those new Android developers out there, here is how you can set text and display it on your Android application’s front end.
TextView textViewObject = new TextView(this);
textViewObject.setText(“Hello, Android”);
setContentView( textViewObject);
The output on the screen would look like :
Here you create a TextView class’s object textViewObject with the class constructor, which accepts an Android Context
instance as its parameter.
Next, you define the text content with setText()
.
Finally, you pass the TextView to setContentView()
in order to display it as the content for the Activity UI.
