..

This is the AutoFitTextureView.cs

public class AutoFitTextureView : TextureView
{
    private int mRatioWidth = 0;
    private int mRatioHeight = 0;........ link to pastebin

Code AutoFitTextureView

And This is the xml

<AutoFitTextureView
    android:id="@+id/camera2_content"
    android:layout_below="@id/header2_wrap"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
    android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"/>........... link to pastebin

Code xml

i call the xml in Camera2BaseFragment so:

public override View OnCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup 
container, Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
      return inflater.Inflate(Resource.Layout.Camera2BasicFragment, 
      container, false);
    }

i try to deleted the "AutoTextView" in xml and the inflate works. How can i solve the problem? Thanks.

The Error java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException usually means that you have not initialized the context properly

Do something like this:

public class AutoFitTextureView : TextureView
{
    private int mRatioWidth = 0;
    private int mRatioHeight = 0; 
    Context mContext;

 public AutoFitTextureView(Android.Content.Context context) : base(context, null)
    {
       init(context, attrs);
    }
 public AutoFitTextureView(Android.Content.Context context, IAttributeSet attrs) : base(context, attrs, 0)
    {
       init(context, attrs);
    }
 public AutoFitTextureView(Android.Content.Context context, IAttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) : base(context,attrs,
defStyle)
    {
       init(context, attrs);
    }

   private void init(Context ctx, Android.Util.IAttributeSet attrs)
    {
        mContext = ctx;
    }

 public void SetAspectRatio(int width, int height)
    {
        if (width == 0 || height == 0)
            throw new ArgumentException("Size cannot be negative.");
        mRatioWidth = width;
        mRatioHeight = height;
        RequestLayout();
    }

    protected override void OnMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec)
    {
        base.OnMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
        int width = MeasureSpec.GetSize(widthMeasureSpec);
        int height = MeasureSpec.GetSize(heightMeasureSpec);
        if (0 == mRatioWidth || 0 == mRatioHeight)
        {
            SetMeasuredDimension(width, height);
        }
        else
        {
            if (width < (float)height * mRatioWidth / (float)mRatioHeight)
            {
                SetMeasuredDimension(width, width * mRatioHeight / mRatioWidth);
            }
            else
            {
                SetMeasuredDimension(height * mRatioWidth / mRatioHeight, height);
            }
        }
    }
}
