Problems adding TableRow dynamically and getMeasuredHeight / getHeight

Question

I have a problem.

I want to dynamically add lines to TableLayout. When adding these lines, I need to get the size of the view, so I try to do this in time onSizeChanged(), but new lines are not displayed. So I tried onFinishInflate(), but then I do not have access to size (getMeasuredHeight returns 0).

The output of the following codes shows two lines of initial row+ onFinishInflate getMeasuredHeight=0. But if I use hierarchyviewer of sdk and press load view hierarchy, then all of a sudden I see three lines in the emulator initial row+ onFinishInflate getMeasuredHeight=0+ onSizeChanged getMeasuredHeight=270!.

Note. This is using the 2.1 hvga landscape emulator, code created using the latest sdk aimed at android1.5.

Answer 1

, View.measure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) (http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#measure%28int,%20int%29) getMeasuredWidth/getMeasuredHeight.

Answer 2

. "": / Layout() " " (onSizeChanged()), - " Runnable", . , , onSizeChanged() ( )

// Note: 'posting a Runnable' is required to call requestLayout(),
// not supposed to call requestLayout() during a 
// layout pass (onSizeChanged())
private Handler handler;        // for posting request(s)

(In constructor code)
{
    handler = new Handler();
}

/*
 * Post request to run a loop requesting button layout so
 * the buttons will be drawn using their new size.
 */
private void postLayoutRequest() {
handler.post(new Runnable() {
    @Override public void run() {
    for(int i = BTN_BASE_ID; i <= TOP_BUTTON_ID; ++i) {
            ButtonEx btn = (ButtonEx)findViewById(i);
            btn.requestLayout();
        }
    }
});
}
