Eu tenho uma barra de ação e alguns fragmentos. O problema é minha tela inicial. Há uma visão geral Fragment no lado esquerdo e um fragmento de detalhe no lado direito. Meu TabListener é dinâmico, então eu quero definir o peso do meu layout programaticamente. Sempre que eu tento obter o Layoutparams do meu LinearLayout eu recebo um ClassCastException:

O layout que é inflado:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" 
    android:id="@+id/container_found_list_overview">

    <EditText android:id="@+id/search_box" 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="50dp"
        android:padding="5dp"
        android:textSize="35sp"
        android:hint="@string/search"
        android:inputType="text"
        android:maxLines="1"/>
    <ListView 
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:id="@+id/overview_list_view">
    </ListView>

</LinearLayout> 

O código:

            LinearLayout myView = (LinearLayout)this.getView().findViewById(R.id.container_found_list_overview);
            Log.d("found container", ""+(myView != null));
            try{
                LayoutParams lp = (LayoutParams) myView.getLayoutParams();
                lp.weight = 1;
                lp.width = 0;
                myView.setLayoutParams(lp);
            }
            catch(RuntimeException e){
                Log.e("cant get layoutparams",e.getMessage());
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
