The Android Button component is a View subclass which is capable of showing button. Being a subclass of View the Button component can be used in your Android app’s GUI inside a ViewGroup, or as the content view of an activity.

For button we can use all the properties which we applied for Textview. The above properties we mentioned in XML file like below code.

<Button
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/bt"
    android:textSize="20sp"
    android:textColor="#234098"
    android:textAllCaps="true"
    android:textStyle="bold|italic"
    android:id="@+id/bt"
    android:typeface="monospace"
    android:gravity="center"/>

For the above textview am assigning text dynamically from java with below code

Button button;
button= (Button) findViewById(R.id.bt);
Click Listener for Button
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {        
    }
});
