viewflipper not calling onCreate of page

I am new to Android development. I would like to use the viewflipper to bring in pages of my application. It would go to the next or previous page depending on the recieved gesture event. I have the gesture working and pages scroll in and out. Cool! Problem: the onCreate of each page 开发者_Go百科doesn't fire and hence I have no click events defined. Here's what I got:

private void BuildViewFlipper(ViewFlipper flipper)
{
    views = new View[2];

    views[0] = GetView(R.layout.ivdosage);

    flipper.addView(views[0], 0);
    views[0].setOnClickListener(CalculationViewer.this); 
    views[0].setOnTouchListener(gestureListener);

    views[1] = GetView(R.layout.ivrate);
    flipper.addView(views[1], 1);
    views[1].setOnClickListener(CalculationViewer.this); 
    views[1].setOnTouchListener(gestureListener);

    flipper.setDisplayedChild(viewIndex); 
}


private View GetView(int id){
    LayoutInflater inflater = this.getLayoutInflater();
    View view = inflater.inflate(id, null);        

    return view;
}

The views in the above code were Activities. What am I missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

PS: The fixed array for the views was to just get me going and will be updated later. :)

ViewFlipper can only host views. You can't include an entire activity in a ViewFlipper.

This is a common question.
