EditText added programmatically differes from XML version

Question

I have an XML layout containing a EditText and 2 buttons. If I click on the plus button, a new edittext is programatically added. This works, but the edittext looks different. According to the XML the edittext defined in XML does not have any special attributes, so I believe its not a particular layout setting.

My question is how do I make my programmatically added EditText's look the same?

The EditText's containing the numbers are my programmatically added edittext's. The empty ones are creating in the XML.

Code:

        LinearLayout baseLayout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.baseLayout);

        LinearLayout linearLayout = new LinearLayout(getApplicationContext());
        linearLayout.setId(100 + numPlayers);
        linearLayout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);

        EditText editText = new EditText(getApplicationContext());
        editText.setText(editText.toString().substring(25, 30));

        ImageButton delButton = new ImageButton(getApplicationContext());
        delButton.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_delete);

        linearLayout.addView(editText);
        linearLayout.addView(delButton);

        baseLayout.addView(linearLayout);

My XML is as following:

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/linearPlayer1"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="horizontal" >

        <EditText
            android:id="@+id/editPlayer1"
            android:layout_width="0dip"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="center"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:gravity="center_vertical" />



        <ImageButton
            android:id="@+id/addPlayer1"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:src="@drawable/ic_input_add" />

    </LinearLayout>

Luksprog answered my question:

pass the Activity Context and not the Application Context when creating the new views.

Answer 2

Adding those views with the correct LayoutParams should make the EditText be like the initial one from the layout:

    linearLayout.addView(editText, new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
            LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1.0f));
    linearLayout.addView(delButton, new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
            LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

    baseLayout.addView(linearLayout, new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
            LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
