    public CustomListView(Context context)
    {
        super(context);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b)
    {
        if (layoutChangedListener != null)
        {
            layoutChangedListener.onLayout(changed, l, t, r, b);
        }
        super.onLayout(changed, l, t, r, b);
    }

    public void setLayoutChangedListener(
        OnLayoutChangedListener layoutChangedListener)
    {
        this.layoutChangedListener = layoutChangedListener;
    }
}
public interface OnLayoutChangedListener
{
    void onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b);
}
