What's the best way to change width/height of开发者_运维问答 a widget (I mean, a UI widget, subclass of android.view.View) programmatically?

Doing something like this works, but it doesn't seem quite right:

ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = mSomeView.getLayoutParams();
params.height += 10;
mSomeView.setLayoutParams(params);

I've been using this approach when to change LayoutParams attributes and it seems good enough for me. After googling i haven't found any other good way to do this.
