Getting ListView total Height with Variable size items

Question

I am using ListView in ScrollView and fetching ListView total height to making Scrollview height equal to ListView complete height. I am using below code for getting ListView total height:

public static void setListViewHeightBasedOnChildren(ListView listView) {
    ListAdapter listAdapter = listView.getAdapter();
    if (listAdapter == null)
        return;

    int desiredWidth = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(listView.getWidth(), MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
    int totalHeight = 0;
    View view = null;
    for (int i = 0; i < listAdapter.getCount(); i++) {
        view = listAdapter.getView(i, view, listView);
        if (i == 0)
            view.setLayoutParams(new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(desiredWidth, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

        view.measure(desiredWidth, MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
        totalHeight += view.getMeasuredHeight();
    }
    ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = listView.getLayoutParams();
    params.height = totalHeight + (listView.getDividerHeight() * (listAdapter.getCount() - 1));
    listView.setLayoutParams(params);
    listView.requestLayout();
}

But problem is that I have variable height ListView Items, when one of TextView in ListView Item got content of 3-4 lines, height of ListView Item goes large and above method not providing exact height of that item. Because of that, not able to scroll to the end of ListView.

So please give me some idea how to get corrent height of ListView With variable size items.
