Dynamic UI element generation - What is possible, what not ?

Hello in here.
I am really new in this forum and would like to say : Nice job.
keep on, this forum seems to be seems the right place for many enthusiastic android developers ( also for me, for example, as a beginner ) and also professionals.

I read some tutorials and created useless apps with the adt, emulated on the bluestacks .
This was for "getting started with android and java".

But now I must really do something, and this is far away from all tutorials, which I have found.


Lets go into detail:

Status now :
-------------------
There is a database with
- metadata about "how much activities a special application has".
- metadata about which ui-elements reside on each activity, with location, size, backcolor, forecolor ,fontstyle, etc
- metadata, which button click could cause navigation to another screen, leaving a ) parent screen for ever or b) possibility of returning to it


Requirements:
---------------------
I must write a runtime ui generator in order to make it available under android.
The runtime generator parses the metadata from the database tables and tries to apply them on each ui-element.

I have sample codes in other languages, but I was googling and read about some things, which appeared not to be so simple under android.

So, in general I would like to know, what of the following points is possible/impossible in android development:

- create forms ( activities ) at runtime
- create ui-elements ( buttons, textviews, etc. ) at runtime and assign them to the correct activity ( form )
- changing properties of ui elements at runtime
- switching forth and back among activities.

Each information is welcome.

Thx.

Hi, Henrique,

THX for Your answer, You are always welcome.

So, will it be possible to navigate to another "form" ( activity ) from one by pressing any button with the help of fragments and even back ?

As I read, I can create fragments as "small containers" on one activity so I partition one activity.

Do You mean, I can use "one main activity" and "put N dummy containers" on it, where all other elements ( buttons, Labels, Checkboxes, Progressbars, and so on ) can be placed at runtime ?

Thx very much.

I will take a look.

Most important is the support of android 2.3 because I use the bluestacks emulator, which is very good but has some restrictions regarding os version.

So, I will check it out tomorrow or already this evening.

See ya.

So, then I will have a short look already now :-)
