I am trying to find the width and height of the screen but none of the ways I have tried will work in the class I created, my code is below.

Does anyone know how to find it? I cannot use the way I am trying below because .getWidth() is deprecated?

public class Crate { public int acrossCrate; public int upDownCrate; Context theContext; WindowManager wm = (WindowManager)theContext.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE); Display display = wm.getDefaultDisplay(); int width = display.getWidth(); public Crate() { acrossCrate = 650; upDownCrate = 650; //int width = ; //int height = ; } }

Use below code

private int getScreenHeight(Context context) { int height; if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 13) { WindowManager wm = (WindowManager) context.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE); Display display = wm.getDefaultDisplay(); Point size = new Point(); display.getSize(size); height = size.y; } else { WindowManager wm = (WindowManager) context.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE); Display display = wm.getDefaultDisplay(); height = display.getHeight(); // deprecated } return height; }

getSize() is the better way to go, seeing as getHeight() and getWidth() were deprecated a couple of years ago. This is a better answer to OP's question.
