How to get seekbar default progress position on activity created

I have the following code in onCreate() Activity:

SeekBar vSeekbar = (SeekBar)findViewById(R.id.seekBar1);
final TextView tvText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView);
//sets seekbar tab position from a randomly generated number...
//when the acitivty is first created I would like the SeekBar position to be set in the `textView`
tvText.setText(vSeekbar.getProgress()); //this is not showing anything...

//the onchangelistener works correctly...
vSeekbar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(new OnSeekBarChangeListener()
{
    @Override
    public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar arg0)
    {
    }

    @Override
    public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar arg0)
    {
    }

    @Override
    public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar arg0, int progress, boolean arg2)
    {
        tvText.setText(String.valueOf(progress)); //this works fine...
    }
});

The seekBar1 position is set by a random number generated when the view is created so no way for me to know beforehand.

How can I get the seekBar1 position when the view is created and set it in the textView.

After random value set to seekbar call vSeekbar.getProgress() method. before you called then only you got zero value.

vSeekbar.setProgress(randomValue());
tvText.setText(vSeekbar.getProgress()+"");

You better limit your random values to the ProgressBar maximum value.

For example if your maximum value is 100 then use the following code: vSeekbar.setProgress(randomValue() % 100);

It will limit the random values to 0 to 99
