I have a button say myButton. I want to set the top left corner radius of the button programmatically. I'm looking for something like 

myButton.setTopLeftCornerRadius(10);

I have looked for a method like 'setcornerradius' in eclipse but got nothing.

the buttons use ImageResources to draw the background.

if you want to achieve rounded corners from code, not using 9-png images, you could take a look here
