Create api to acquire Views for measuring about litho

[mmm111mmm]

I've come across this problem too.

I want to use an Android EditText (It has properties that litho's doesn't) wrapped in a MountSpec.

I want to measure the height of the EditText like this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24359538/how-to-find-the-text-areaheight-width-of-textview-programmatically-in-android/24359594#24359594

textView.setText("bla");
textView.measure(0, 0);
textView.getMeasuredWidth();
textView.getMeasuredHeight();

But currently there is no way to access the Android EditText in the onMeasure function.

@IanChilds @emilsjolander Does this touch on the same issue in this ticket or shall I make a new one? This one hasn't been touched for 20 days.

Not sure what you mean here:

But currently there is no way to access the Android EditText in the onMeasure function.

If you look at https://github.com/facebook/litho/blob/master/litho-widget/src/main/java/com/facebook/litho/widget/EditTextSpec.java#L229 you see that it does actually access the Android EditText in the onMeasure method.

@IanChilds API for measuring custom views such as EditText is unclear. Moreover, in EditText example to measure EditTextSpec we create a new instance of EditText each time. Is this a common approach to implement onMeasure for MountSpec with view capable to resize itself dynamically?
