Set minHeight of LinearLayout Programmatically

Question

This is my code.

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:orientation="vertical"
                    android:minHeight="1000dp">
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
                    xmlns:card_view="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
                    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
                    android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"
                    android:layout_marginRight="16dp"
                    card_view:cardCornerRadius="2dp"
                    card_view:cardElevation="2dp">
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
                    xmlns:card_view="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
                    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
                    android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"
                    android:layout_marginRight="16dp"
                    card_view:cardCornerRadius="2dp"
                    card_view:cardElevation="2dp">
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>
</LinearLayout>

I set the minHeight of linear layout in xml. But I want to set it programmatically. I have two cards in this linear layout. And I want to set the minHeight on the basis of my two cards height.

You can use View.setMinimumHeight()
