Android provides facility to create our custom view and use it’s custom attribute in XML. For this, first we create a custom view with some custom attribute and then inflate it in XML.

/* Add cunstructor that must takes an AttributeSet object as a parameter,because it is must to inflate the CustomView from a XMl file.*/
Public CustomView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs){
super(context,attrs)
paint.setColor(Color.Black);

/* initialize the  string heading With Attribute with hedaing Name in XML*/
heading =attrs.getAttributeValue(null, “heading” );

}

@Override                              /* override onDraw */
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas){
super.onDraw(canvas);
canvas.drawText(heading,Float X,Float Y, paint);  
  }

}

 

 <package name.MyCustomView

   android:id=@+id/heading1

   heading=”Hello This is My Custom Black Heading” />
