Question

I want to do some data processing (in a thread) right after my main Activity starts. For that data processing to be started I also need to know a visible size of my main View (which is a LinearLayout currently, but whatever).

I wonder how to do that. I.e. I wonder what is the entry point (callback?) I should use to be sure that my main View has been layed out, so i can use view.getWidth/getHeight?

Is creating a custom View and reimplementing it’s onSizeChanged() – the only way? In this case how should I properly describe it in my xml layout file? (it will contain some child views)

Thanks in advance.

You can handle it in Activity#onWindowFocusChanged
