[android] android ellipsize multiline textview

This is my solution. you can download demo on my github. https://github.com/krossford/KrossLib/tree/master/android-project

This screenshot was a demo that maxLines = 4, I think it works well.

enter image description here

package com.krosshuang.krosslib.lib.view;

import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.widget.TextView;

import java.util.ArrayList;

/*
?????
How to use it?

> 1.?xml??java???????
> 1.use it like other views on xml and java code.

> 2.[??] setMaxLines ?????xml?? "android:maxLines" ??
> 2.[must] call the setMaxLines method to instead of the xml property android:maxLines.

> 3.[??] ???? setMultilineEllipsizeMode() ??,???????
> 3.[option] you can invoke setMultilineEllipsizeMode method, but I have not implement it.
