    CheckParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_VERTICAL);
    CheckParams.setMargins(656, 169, 0, 0);

    Resources r6 = getResources();
    int px6 = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(
            TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 40, r6.getDisplayMetrics());

    checkBox.setHeight(px6);

    Resources r7 = getResources();

    EditText myEditText = new EditText(this);
    myEditText.setHint("TextBox2");
    myEditText.setId(2);
    myEditText.setBackgroundColor(Color.rgb(102, 255, 255));

    RelativeLayout.LayoutParams textParams = 
            new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
                RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,   
                RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);

    textParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.ABOVE, myButton.getId());
    textParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_HORIZONTAL);
    textParams.setMargins(300, 69,0 ,0);

    Resources r = getResources();
    int px = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(
            TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 200, r.getDisplayMetrics());

    myEditText.setWidth(px);

    Resources r1 = getResources();

manifest file

Answer 1

Use shape. For example:

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<solid android:color="#ffffff" />
<stroke android:width="1dp" android:color="#4fa5d5"/>
</shape>

Create xml with this text in drawable res and then set it to background in your TextView.

Here's your border width: android:width="1dip"
