Make a child fit it's parent

[splatt]

Is there an easy way to make a child view completely fill it's parent?

I am adding webviews to a Tabhost and I want them to fill each tab completely.

In Delphi there is an alignment option to allow you to fill the client area, or attach to the top, left, right and bottom. I don't know if this is possible in Java, but it makes creating activity layouts on the fly much easier.

Try setting the width and height to -1. This is Android constant for filling the parent.
