Android - get children inside a View?

Question

Given a View how can I get the child views inside it?

So I have a custom View and debugger shows that under mChildren there are 7 other views. I need a way to access these views but it doesn't seem like there is a public API to do this.

any suggestions?

EDIT:

My custom view inherits from AdapterView

Answer 1

for(int index = 0; index < ((ViewGroup) viewGroup).getChildCount(); index++) {
    View nextChild = ((ViewGroup) viewGroup).getChildAt(index);
}

Will that do?
