Android TextView Text not getting wrapped

Question

Can anyone tell me what's going wrong with the text? Text longer than one line doesn't wrap to the next line but goes beyond the screen.

Following is the code:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     android:layout_width="fill_parent"      android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:orientation="horizontal"      android:padding="4dip">      <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"         android:layout_width="fill_parent"          android:layout_height="wrap_content"         android:orientation="vertical"          android:padding="4dip">          <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"             android:layout_width="fill_parent"              android:layout_height="wrap_content"             android:orientation="horizontal"              android:padding="4dip">             <TextView                  android:id="@+id/reviewItemEntityName"                 android:layout_width="wrap_content"                  android:layout_height="wrap_content"                 android:text="event/venue"                  android:textColor="@color/maroon"                 android:singleLine="true"                  android:ellipsize="end"                  android:textSize="14sp"                 android:textStyle="bold"                  android:layout_weight="1" />              <ImageView                  android:id="@+id/reviewItemStarRating"                 android:layout_width="wrap_content"                  android:layout_height="wrap_content"                 android:layout_alignParentTop="true"                 android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"                 android:src="@drawable/title_1_star" />         </LinearLayout>          <TextView              android:id="@+id/reviewItemDescription"             android:layout_width="fill_parent"              android:layout_height="wrap_content"             android:text="Description comes here"              android:textSize="12sp"              android:layout_weight="1"/>     </LinearLayout> </LinearLayout>

I fixed it myself, the key is android:width="0dip"

<LinearLayout      android:layout_width="wrap_content"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:orientation="vertical"     android:padding="4dip"     android:layout_weight="1">      <LinearLayout          android:layout_width="fill_parent"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         android:orientation="horizontal"         android:padding="4dip">          <TextView             android:id="@+id/reviewItemEntityName"             android:layout_width="wrap_content"             android:layout_height="wrap_content"             android:textColor="@color/maroon"             android:singleLine="true"             android:ellipsize="end"             android:textSize="14sp"             android:textStyle="bold"             android:layout_weight="1" />          <ImageView             android:id="@+id/reviewItemStarRating"             android:layout_width="wrap_content"             android:layout_height="wrap_content"             android:layout_alignParentTop="true"             android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" />         </LinearLayout>          <TextView             android:id="@+id/reviewItemDescription"             android:layout_width="fill_parent"             android:layout_height="wrap_content"             android:textSize="12sp"             android:width="0dip" />      </LinearLayout>      <ImageView         android:id="@+id/widget01"         android:layout_width="wrap_content"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         android:src="@drawable/arrow_nxt"         android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"         android:paddingRight="5dip" />  </LinearLayout>
