Question

How to make a callback after the view is completely rendered ?

I am trying to call a method which takes a screen-shot of parent view.
If I write that code in onCreate() method, the app crashes due to null pointer (as no view is rendered).
for now the temporary solution I have implemented is to make a delay of 1 second before calling that method.
But, I am looking for a much more robust solution to this problem.

any suggestions and help appreciated.
thanks 🙂

I have got a better option now 🙂
this really gives a call-back after the layout is rendered

private class LoadActivity extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {

    @Override
    protected void onPreExecute() {
        super.onPreExecute();

        mainMethod();
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
        super.onPostExecute(result);

        takeScreenShot(1);
    }

    @Override
    protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
        return null;
    };
}

I created the above class and then called this method for execution in onCreate()

LoadActivity loadactivity= new LoadActivity();
loadactivity.execute();
