“requestLayout() improperly called by…” error on Android 4.3

Question

I have a simple Custom TextView that sets custom font in its constructor like the code below

public class MyTextView extends TextView {

    @Inject CustomTy         


        

Answer 1

Looking into the Android source, this problem is described in a little more detail:

requestLayout() was called during layout. If no layout-request flags are set on the requesting views, there is no problem. If some requests are still pending, then we need to clear those flags and do a full request/measure/layout pass to handle this situation.

It appears that the problem may be related to Roboguice; see issue #88. The suggested solution there is to use @InjectView:

You can now use @InjectView from inside a view class. Just call Injector.injectMembers() after you've populated your view, ala:

public class InjectedView extends FrameLayout {

    @InjectView(R.id.view1) View v;

    public InjectedView(Context context) {
        super(context);
        final View child = new View(context);
        child.setId(R.id.view1);
        addView(child);

        RoboGuice.getInjector(context).injectMembers(this);
    }
}

Perhaps you should consider migrating RoboGuice.injectMembers(context, this) to the declaration of your View object using the @InjectView annotation.
