CirclePageIndicator doesn't support edit mode

[thomasaw]

If you attempt to use CirclePageIndicator in the layout editor you get the exception below. I suspect other views have the same problem, but I only tested CirclePageIndicator. This problem probably comes from not checking isInEditMode().

[hackware1993]

@thomasaw https://github.com/hackware1993/MagicIndicator, have a try.

[AndroidDeveloperLB]

@hackware1993 It has an issue of not showing at all:
#405

[AndroidDeveloperLB]

@thomasaw A workaround for this is performing these changes:

public CirclePageIndicator(Context context) {
    this(context, null);
}

public CirclePageIndicator(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    this(context, attrs, 0);
}

public CirclePageIndicator(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
    super(context, attrs, defStyle);
