Create a view by Java code

I used the following code to add a view in a layout

LinearLayout linearLayout_row1_recent_released = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.linearLayout);
    View myview = findViewById(R.layout.row);
     Button button = myview.findViewById(R.id.mybutton);
     linearLayout_row1_recent_released.removeAllViews();
     linearLayout_row1_recent_released.addView(myview,LinearLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT);

Using row.xml i've tried to get a view. What i get is a FATAL EXCEPTION.

Is there any other good way to add views dynamically to a linear layout? What have I done wrong here ?

I am guessing that the view R.layout.row is defined in a separate XML file, and you want to include it here. If that is the case,

findViewById(R.layout.row)

will not work because R.layout.row is not visible in the current activity.

You need to use layout inflater to inflate the view, and then you can add it to the linear layout. The way to do this is

LayoutInflaterinflater = (LayoutInflater) getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View myView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row, null);
linearLayout_row1_recent_released.addView(myview,
                       new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT) );

Your call to addView is wrong.

You are calling addView(View, int), but it should be: addView(View, LayoutParams):

linearLayout_row1_recent_released.addView(myview,
    new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, 
                                  LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT) );
