If you want to block a worker thread and wait on something that's done
on the UI thread, you just need a synchronization point. The
java.util.concurrent package offers many tools to do that kind of
stuff. Here's an example using a CountDownLatch:

 829         final CountDownLatch latch = new CountDownLatch(1);
 830         final long[] duration = new long[1];
 831
 832         view.post(new Runnable() {
 833             public void run() {
 834                 try {
 835                     T[] data = operation.pre();
 836                     long start = Debug.threadCpuTimeNanos();
 837                     operation.run(data);
 838                     duration[0] = Debug.threadCpuTimeNanos() - start;
 839                     operation.post(data);
 840                 } finally {
 841                     latch.countDown();
 842                 }
 843             }
 844         });
 845
 846         try {
 847             latch.await(CAPTURE_TIMEOUT, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
 848         } catch (InterruptedException e) {
 849             Log.w("View", "Could not complete the profiling of
the view " + view);
 850             Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
 851             return -1;
 852         }
