Get parent Width and Height [duplicate]

Question

I've create a custom view based on LinearLayout and I need to calculate the layout width and height according to the parent view but each time I use ((View)this.getParent()).getMeasuredWidth() I got 0 - I guess that I called this function too early!

Any ideas to how accomplish this functionality?

@Hardik I don't get any errors, I just get zero value instead of actual layout width and height! — iSun

in Kotlin you can use like this :

 val height = (parent as View).height

if your view parent have layout params "android:layout_width="wrapContent", you can not get the width.
