Problem detecting Spinner component

iterating through a View's components the following code works:

if (child.getClass() == EditText.class) {
  ...
} else if (child.getClass() == TextView.class) {
  ...

but this doesn't:

} else if (child.getClass() == Spinner.class) {
  ...

What's the difference between the Spinner class an th开发者_开发技巧e other two ?

My mistake ... I was previousy checking if it was a ViewGroup object so It never reached the condition

Thanks

Have you considered using

if(child instanceof EditText){}
else if(child instanceof TextView){}
else if(child instanceof Spinner){}

 if(child.getClass() instanceof Spinner.class){
 ...

edit:

I found Stackoverflow question that explain it:

Any reason to prefer getClass() over instanceof when generating .equals()?
