java.lang.Object
	android.view.View				Drawable.Callback KeyEvent.Callback
		android.view.ViewGroup			ViewManager ViewParent
			android.widget.LinearLayout
				android.widget.RadioGroup

This class is used to create a multiple-exclusion scope for a set of radio buttons. Checking one radio button that belongs to a radio group unchecks any previously checked radio button within the same group.

Intially, all of the radio buttons are unchecked. While it is not possible to uncheck a particular radio button, the radio group can be cleared to remove the checked state.

The selection is identified by the unique id of the radio button as defined in the XML layout file.

XML Attributes

See RadioGroup Attributes, LinearLayout Attributes, ViewGroup Attributes, View Attributes

Also see LinearLayout.LayoutParams for layout attributes.

Nested Classes

RadioGroup.LayoutParams	This set of layout parameters defaults the width and the height of the children to WRAP_CONTENT when they are not specified in the XML file.
RadioGroup.OnCheckedChangeListener	Interface definition for a callback to be invoked when the checked radio button changed in this group.
