I have a activity_main
layout which looks like the following layout:
<RelativeLayout
android:id = "@+id/wrapper"
android:layout_width = "wrap_content"
android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom = "true"
android:layout_gravity = "bottom"
android:gravity = "bottom">
<include
android:id = "@+id/call_to_action"
layout = "@layout/call_to_action_layout"
android:layout_width = "fill_parent"
android:layout_height = "wrap_content"/>
<include
android:id = "@+id/status"
layout = "@layout/status_layout"
android:layout_width = "fill_parent"
android:layout_height = "wrap_content"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Both of my included layouts look like these:
Here's the call_to_action_layout.xml
<LinearLayout
android:id = "@+id/action_button_container"
android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
android:layout_width = "fill_parent"
xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<EditText
android:id="@+id/edit_text_1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<EditText
android:id="@+id/edit_text_2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
And the status_layout.xml
<LinearLayout
android:id = "@+id/another_container"
android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
android:layout_width = "fill_parent"
xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<EditText
android:id="@+id/edit_text_3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<EditText
android:id="@+id/edit_text_4"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
In MainActivity.java
I am trying to set a property of all EditText
that are present in my activity_main.xml
. For that, I need to loop over and access every EditText
present in my layout.
So here's what I've tried so far in MainActivity.java
RelativeLayout container = findViewById(R.id.wrapper);
for (int i = 0; i < container.getChildCount(); i++) {
Log.d(TAG, "id: " + container.getChildAt(i));
if (container.getChildAt(i) instanceof EditText) {
EditText editText =
(EditText) container.getChildAt(i);
editText.setKeyListener(null);
}
}
But because of <include>
tag, I am not able to access all of the EditText
in this code.
Is there any way to do this?
Note: Basically, all want to do is disable all the EditText
present in my layout.
In your loop you're only iterating through first level children of your layout (call_to_action
and status
).
You can either do two loops like this:
ViewGroup call_to_action = findViewById(R.id.call_to_action)
for (int i = 0; i < call_to_action.getChildCount(); i++)
{
Log.d(TAG, "id: " + call_to_action.getChildAt(i));
if (container.getChildAt(i) instanceof EditText)
{
EditText editText =
(EditText) call_to_action.getChildAt(i);
editText.setKeyListener(null);
}
}
ViewGroup status = findViewById(R.id.status)
for (int i = 0; i < status.getChildCount(); i++)
{
Log.d(TAG, "id: " + status.getChildAt(i));
if (status .getChildAt(i) instanceof EditText)
{
EditText editText =
(EditText) status.getChildAt(i);
editText.setKeyListener(null);
}
}
Or create a recursive method like this one:
public void removeKeyListeners(ViewGroup container){
for (int i = 0; i < container.getChildCount(); i++)
{
Log.d(TAG, "id: " + container.getChildAt(i));
if (container.getChildAt(i) instanceof EditText)
{
EditText editText =
(EditText) container.getChildAt(i);
editText.setKeyListener(null);
} else if (container.getChildAt(i) instanceof ViewGroup) {
removeKeyListeners((ViewGroup) container.getChildAt(i));
}
}
}
and call it for your layout:
removeKeyListeners(container);
Note: using ViewGroup
here because all Layouts
are subclasses of it.
