Show ImageView programmatically

How can I make an ImageView appear in the middle of the screen when the user clicks a button? I have placed the image in the res/drawable-folder.

I've been trying with the code below but I don't know how to make the ImageView appear:

 View v = new ImageView(getBaseContext());
 ImageView image; 
 image = ne开发者_StackOverfloww ImageView(v.getContext()); 
 image.setImageDrawable(v.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.gameover));

Thanks!

//LinearLayOut Setup
LinearLayout linearLayout= new LinearLayout(this);
linearLayout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);

linearLayout.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));

//ImageView Setup
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(this);

//setting image resource
imageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.play);

//setting image position
imageView.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, 
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

//adding view to layout
linearLayout.addView(imageView);
//make visible to program
setContentView(linearLayout);

int id = getResources().getIdentifier("gameover", "drawable", getPackageName());
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(this);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams vp = 
    new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 
                    LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
imageView.setLayoutParams(vp);        
imageView.setImageResource(id);        
someLinearLayout.addView(imageView); 

If you add to RelativeLayout, don't forget to set imageView's position. For instance:

RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(200, 200);
lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_IN_PARENT); // A position in layout.
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(this); // initialize ImageView
imageView.setLayoutParams(lp);
// imageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_CENTER);
imageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.photo);
RelativeLayout layout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.layout);
layout.addView(imageView);

• Create the ImageView
• Use an OnClickListener in the button
• Add the ImageView to the layout or set the visibility of the ImageView to VISIBLE
