不管怎么说，ListView即使再特殊最终还是继承自View的，因此它的执行流程还将会按照View的规则来执行，对于这方面不太熟悉的朋友可以参考我之前写的 Android视图绘制流程完全解析，带你一步步深入了解View(二) 。

View的执行流程无非就分为三步，onMeasure()用于测量View的大小，onLayout()用于确定View的布局，onDraw()用于将View绘制到界面上。而在ListView当中，onMeasure()并没有什么特殊的地方，因为它终归是一个View，占用的空间最多并且通常也就是整个屏幕。onDraw()在ListView当中也没有什么意义，因为ListView本身并不负责绘制，而是由ListView当中的子元素来进行绘制的。那么ListView大部分的神奇功能其实都是在onLayout()方法中进行的了，因此我们本篇文章也是主要分析的这个方法里的内容。
