how to assign unique R id to elements that are created dynamically?

private void createEditText(String hint) {          
        EditText myEditText = new EditText(this); // Pass it an Activity or Context
        LayoutParams editLayoutParams = new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
        if(id.equals("1")){
        editLayoutParams.setMargins(10, 100, 10, 0);
        }else
            editLayoutParams.setMargins(10, 10, 10, 0);
        myEditText.setLayoutParams(editLayoutParams);
        myEditText.setVerticalFadingEdgeEnabled(true);
        myEditText.setHint(hint);
        myLayout.addView(myEditText);

    }

createEditText method may be called many times...so I want to create unique R.id for each edittext which I can use later and non-conflicting. I want to know trick beside the one which include id.xml
