I want to apply few number validation after entering text into edit-text.I tried to do it using TextWatcher
, but it works properly on high versions only , not in lower version.
Hence I want to use OnKeyListener
events. But that is also not working.
start_time_edit.setOnKeyListener(onSoftKeyboardDonePress);
private View.OnKeyListener onSoftKeyboardDonePress=new View.OnKeyListener()
{
public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
{
if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN)
{
Toast.makeText(CreateTimesheet.this, "checking event", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
return false;
}
};
It never goes inside the If statement as it both the values doesn't match.
What should I do?
You can also use setOnEditorActionListener instead of setOnKeyListener on EditText.
Here is sample code, please try it.
start_time_edit.setImeActionLabel("Next", KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER);
start_time_edit.setOnEditorActionListener(new TextView.OnEditorActionListener() {
@Override
public boolean onEditorAction(TextView arg0, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
if ((event != null && event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER)) {
Toast.makeText(CreateTimesheet.this, "checking event", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
return false;
}
});
