How to Apply theme activity in android by programmatically?

Anonymous User224607-Nov-2014

I want to know which theme is applied for an Activity in an application.

Normally we are setting the theme by using

setTheme(android.R.style.Theme_Light);

Here we are specifying style, As like  this can we able to get the specific style type exactly applied for an activity programmatically.

Context class has a nice method called getThemeResId, however it's private thus you need to use reflection.

Here's an example:

@Overrideprotectedvoid onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);Log.e("TAG","Def theme: "+ R.style.AppTheme);Log.e("TAG","Light theme: "+ android.R.style.Theme_Light);Log.e("TAG","Current theme id: "+ getThemeId()); setTheme(android.R.style.Theme_Light);Log.e("TAG","Current theme id: "+ getThemeId());}int getThemeId(){try{Class<?> wrapper =Context.class;Method method = wrapper.getMethod("getThemeResId"); method.setAccessible(true);return(Integer) method.invoke(this);}catch(Exception e){ e.printStackTrace();}return0;}
