Without java code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="line">

    <stroke
       android:color="#FF00FF"
       android:dashWidth="10px"
       android:dashGap="10px"
       android:width="1dp"/>
</shape>

<ImageView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="5dp"
    android:src="@drawable/dotted"
    android:layerType="software" />
