Can someone help me see how to figure out the width of my TextureView?

I tried this, but I got zeros (in the_width and the_height):

*protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {*
*
*
*mTextureView = new TextureView(this);*
*
*
*setContentView(mTextureView);*
*
*
*int the_width = mTextureView.getWidth();*
*int the_height = mTextureView.getHeight();*

At the point you're querying for the width/height the layout hasn't really
been laid (those are not done right after creation of a view), you've never
really specified for that view any layout parameters (why are you not using
an xml layout anyhow?) and you didnt define any content for it, so what
exactly is supposed to be measured?

Assuming you do all of that and when running the app the TextureView is
showing properly as you want it to show, then you can figure out the width.
The best method i've find is using a GlobalLayoutListener

 ViewTreeObserver vto = mTextureView.getViewTreeObserver();
vto.addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new OnGlobalLayoutListener(){
@Override
public void onGlobalLayout(){
                                 //at this point you'll know its height and
width, so use them here
ViewTreeObserver obs =   mTextureView .getViewTreeObserver();
obs.removeGlobalOnLayoutListener(this); //so it wouldn't be called again
