footer View issue in android

Question

Hello In my android app when the no of items in the list is small the footer sticks to end of the list like the one shown below.

but not to the end of screen. Is there any way that i can stick it to the bottom of the screen. I am using a seperate footer.xml and am calling it using Inflator service.

Please share your valuable suggestions.

Thanks in advance:)

Use Relative layout and align it to bottom of parent:

<RelativeLayout
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">

<YourFooter
    android:id="@+id/SomethingSomething"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" />



</RelativeLayout>
