How to click/use dynamically created buttons in android

Question

I dynamically created 3 buttons, but I can't access these buttons via the

setOnClicklistener

method.
My code is below:

quesButton = new Button[3];





    ll1 = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.ll4button);



    for(int x=0; x<3; x++){

        quesButton[x] = new Button(MainActivity.this);

        quesButton[x].setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

        quesButton[x].setText("Q" + (x + 1));



        ll1.addView(quesButton[x]);

    }

You have to attach an onClickListener AFTER your create a new element.

quesButton[x] = new Button(MainActivity.this);
...
quesButton[x].setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() 
{ 
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) 
    {
        // Your code that you want to execute on this button click
    }
});
