10,636 PointsIt seems you have a nullPointerException when you call addView(), which may mean linearLayout is null. You create linearLayout from view.findViewById(). Since it doesnt crash will nullPointerException from findViewById then the view object is not null but findVIewById() is returning null.
I would check the arguments you pass in for findViewById(), R.id.linearLayout
Its making it return null
