+  <shortdesc>The Java code generator can quickly generate boilerplate code for selected UI elements defined in an
+    activity's or fragment's layout file. It generates attribute declarations, findViewById() calls, and event handlers.</shortdesc>

+        <cmd>Construct your layout file, ensuring that it contains all of the UI elements that you want to
+          programmatically access from your Java Activity or Fragment subclass. Save your work.</cmd>
+      </step>
+      <step>
+        <cmd>Right-click the Activity or Fragment subclass that presents and controls the layout (right-click either the
+          editor window showing this subclass, or the subclass' filename in the Package Explorer) and select
+            <menucascade><uicontrol>Source</uicontrol><uicontrol>Generate Java Code Based on
+          Layout</uicontrol></menucascade>.</cmd>
+        <info>
+          <note>In order for this operation to work, your Activity or Fragment code must not have errors. As well, the
+            xml file that defines your layout must be well-formed.</note>
+        </info>
+        <stepresult>The Generate Java Code Based on Layout dialog appears.</stepresult>

+        <cmd>From the <uicontrol>UI objects</uicontrol> list, select those items for which code is to be generated.</cmd>
+        <info>To avoid adding duplicate code, if the code generator finds an existing findViewById() statement for a
+          given UI object, it does not include that UI object in the list.</info>

+      <step>
+        <cmd>If at least one of the UI objects is normally used with a listener object, and you do <i>not</i> want
+          listeners to be created for you, clear the <uicontrol>Generate default listeners when possible</uicontrol>
+          option. Otherwise, leave this option selected so that listeners are generated for the appropriate UI
+        objects.</cmd>
