Assign a size and position to a view and all of its descendants This is the second phase of the layout mechanism. (The first is measuring). In this phase, each parent calls layout on all of its children to position them. This is typically done using the child measurements that were stored in the measure pass(). Derived classes should not override this method. Derived classes with children should override onLayout. In that method, they should call layout on each of their children.

This is called to find out how big a view should be. The parent supplies constraint information in the width and height parameters. The actual measurement work of a view is performed in onMeasure(int, int), called by this method. Therefore, only onMeasure(int, int) can and must be overridden by subclasses.

Measure the view and its content to determine the measured width and the measured height. This method is invoked by measure(int, int) and should be overriden by subclasses to provide accurate and efficient measurement of their contents. When overriding this method, you must call setMeasuredDimension(int, int) to store the measured width and height of this view. Failure to do so will trigger an exception, thrown by measure(int, int).

Utility to reconcile a desired size and state, with constraints imposed by a MeasureSpec. Will take the desired size, unless a different size is imposed by the constraints. The returned value is a compound integer, with the resolved size in the MEASURED_SIZE_MASK bits and optionally the bit MEASURED_STATE_TOO_SMALL set if the resulting size is smaller than the size the view wants to be.
Please note that should you be using the
new Observable({})constructor, it is obsolete since v3.0, and you have to migrate to the "data/observable"fromObject({})or thefromObjectRecursive({})functions.
