How to create a RelativeLayout programmatically with two buttons one on top of the other?

Question

I'm adding two buttons to the UI, but they appear on top of one another. I want them to appear next to each other. What am I missing in this code?

m_btnCrown = new ImageButton(this);
m_btnCrown.setImageResource(R.drawable.king_crown_thumb);
m_btnCrown.setAlpha(100);

RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
    RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_TOP);


addContentView(m_btnCrown, lp);


m_btnMonkey = new ImageButton(this);
m_btnMonkey.setImageResource(R.drawable.monkey_small);
m_btnMonkey.setAlpha(100);

lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
    RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_TOP);
lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.RIGHT_OF, m_btnCrown.getId());   

addContentView(m_btnMonkey, lp);

I have written a quick example to demonstrate how to create a layout programmatically.

public class CodeLayout extends Activity {

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        // Creating a new RelativeLayout
        RelativeLayout relativeLayout = new RelativeLayout(this);

        // Defining the RelativeLayout layout parameters.
        // In this case I want to fill its parent
        RelativeLayout.LayoutParams rlp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
                RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
                RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT);

        // Creating a new TextView
        TextView tv = new TextView(this);
        tv.setText("Test");

        // Defining the layout parameters of the TextView
        RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
                RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
        lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_IN_PARENT);

        // Setting the parameters on the TextView
        tv.setLayoutParams(lp);

        // Adding the TextView to the RelativeLayout as a child
        relativeLayout.addView(tv);

        // Setting the RelativeLayout as our content view
        setContentView(relativeLayout, rlp);
    }
}

In theory everything should be clear as it is commented. If you don't understand something just tell me.
