Android - How to add a header and a footer to listView

In the following example we add a previous button in the header, next button in the footer.


Activity Code:

ListView list = getListView();
View headerView = View.inflate(this, R.layout.header, null);
list.addHeaderView(headerView);
View footerView = View.inflate(this, R.layout.footer, null);
list.addFooterView(footerView);


Header XML Layout - header.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="5dip">

<Button android:id="@+id/previous"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />

</RelativeLayout>


Footer XML Layout - footer.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="5dip">

<Button android:id="@+id/next"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
