ImageView be a square with dynamic width?

I have a GridView with ImageViews inside. I have 3 of them for each row. I can set correctly the width with WRAP_CONTENT and scaleType = CENTER_CROP, but I don't know how to set the ImageView's size to be a square. Here's what I did until now, it seems to be ok except the height, that is "static":

imageView = new ImageView(context);     
imageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER_CROP);
imageView.setLayoutParams(new GridView.LayoutParams(GridView.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 300));

I'm doing it inside an adapter.

Fast solution for Kotlin (Material.ShapeableImageView can be changed to ImageView)

class SquareImageView @JvmOverloads constructor(
    context: Context,
    attrs: AttributeSet? = null,
    defStyleAttr: Int = 0
) : ShapeableImageView(context, attrs, defStyleAttr) {
    override fun onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec: Int, heightMeasureSpec: Int) {
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec)
        setMeasuredDimension(measuredWidth, measuredWidth)
    }
}

Here all are unnecessary calling its superclass for onMeasure. Here is my implementation

@Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
    int width = MeasureSpec.getSize(widthMeasureSpec);
    int height = MeasureSpec.getSize(heightMeasureSpec);
    int size = Math.min(width, height);
    setMeasuredDimension(size, size);
}

Single line solution - 

layout.setMinimumHeight(layout.getWidth());

An squareImageView by specified width:

public class SquareImageViewByWidth extends AppCompatImageView {

    public SquareImageViewByWidth(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public SquareImageViewByWidth(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public SquareImageViewByWidth(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);

        int width= getMeasuredWidth();
        setMeasuredDimension(width, width);
    }

     ...
}

An squareImageView by specified height:

    public class SquareImageViewByHeight extends AppCompatImageView {

        public SquareImageViewByHeight(Context context) {
            super(context);
        }

        public SquareImageViewByHeight(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
            super(context, attrs);
        }

        public SquareImageViewByHeight(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
            super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
        }

        @Override
        protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
            super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);

            int height = getMeasuredHeight();
            setMeasuredDimension(height, height);
        }

        ...
    }

An squareImageView by minimum of dimentions:

public class SquareImageViewByMin extends AppCompatImageView {

        public SquareImageViewByHeight(Context context) {
            super(context);
        }

        public SquareImageViewByHeight(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
            super(context, attrs);
        }

        public SquareImageViewByHeight(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
            super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
        }

        @Override
        protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
            int width = MeasureSpec.getSize(widthMeasureSpec);
            int height = MeasureSpec.getSize(heightMeasureSpec);
            int minSize = Math.min(width, height);
            setMeasuredDimension(minSize, minSize);
        }

       ...
    }

if someone wants the view to be not square, but proportionally resized in height (for example, 16/9 or 1/3), you can do it like this:

@Override
public void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
    heightMeasureSpec = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(getMeasuredWidth()/3, MeasureSpec.AT_MOST);
    super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
}

For those looking for a Kotlin solution:

class SquareImageView @JvmOverloads constructor(
        context: Context, attrs: AttributeSet? = null, defStyleAttr: Int = 0, defStyleRes: Int = 0
) : ImageView(context, attrs, defStyleAttr, defStyleRes){
    override fun onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec: Int, heightMeasureSpec: Int) = super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, widthMeasureSpec)
}

Even more simple:

public class SquareImageView extends ImageView {
    ...
    @Override
    protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, widthMeasureSpec);
    }    
}

Several of the previous answers are perfectly sufficient. I'm just adding a small optimization to both @Andro Selva and @a.bertucci's solutions here:

It's a tiny optimization, but checking that the width and the height are different could prevent another measurement pass.

public class SquareImageView extends ImageView {

    public SquareImageView(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public SquareImageView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public SquareImageView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, widthMeasureSpec);

        int width = getMeasuredWidth();
        int height = getMeasuredHeight();

        // Optimization so we don't measure twice unless we need to
        if (width != height) {
            setMeasuredDimension(width, width);
        }
    }

}

The other answer works fine. This is just an extension of bertucci's solution to make an ImageView with square width and height with respect to xml inflated layout.

Create a class, say a SquareImageView extending ImageView like this, 

public class SquareImageView extends ImageView {

    public SquareImageView(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public SquareImageView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public SquareImageView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);

        int width = getMeasuredWidth();
        setMeasuredDimension(width, width);
    }

}

Now, in your xml do this,

        <com.packagepath.tothis.SquareImageView
            android:id="@+id/Imageview"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent" />

If you need an ImageView not to be dynamically created in program, instead, to be fixed in xml, then this implementation will be helpful.

The best option is to subclass ImageView yourself, overriding the measure pass:

public class SquareImageView  extends ImageView {

  ...

  @Override
  protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
    super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);

    int width = getMeasuredWidth();
    setMeasuredDimension(width, width);
  }

  ...

}
