call monodroid method from javascript example

I am looking for an example of how to call a monodroid method (C#) from javascript, using a webview.

Something like:

javascript:

<a href="#" onclick="window.android.callAndroid('Hello from Browser')"> 
   Call Android from JavaScript</a>

public class LocalBrowser extends Activity {
...
   private class MyClass {
      public void callAndroid(final String arg) { 
               textView.setText(arg);
      }
   }
  }

Thanks

This is the example I used to finally solve this for me. Better late than never.

Pay close attention to the decoration of the function and be sure to include Mono.Android.Export in your references.

using System;

using Android.App;
using Android.Content;
using Android.Runtime;
using Android.Views;
using Android.Widget;
using Android.OS;

using Android.Webkit;
using Java.Interop;

namespace WebViewJavaScriptInterface
{
[Activity (Label = "Mono WebView ScriptInterface", MainLauncher = true)]
public class JavaScriptInterfaceActivity : Activity
{
    const string html = @"
<html>
<body>
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
<button type=""button"" onClick=""Foo.bar('test message')"">Click Me!</button>
</body>
</html>";

    protected override void OnCreate (Bundle bundle)
    {
        base.OnCreate (bundle);

        // Set our view from the "main" layout resource
        SetContentView (Resource.Layout.Main);

        WebView view = FindViewById<WebView> (Resource.Id.web);
        view.Settings.JavaScriptEnabled = true;
        view.SetWebChromeClient (new WebChromeClient ());
        view.AddJavascriptInterface (new Foo (this), "Foo");
        view.LoadData (html, "text/html", null);
    }
}

class Foo : Java.Lang.Object
{
    public Foo (Context context)
    {
        this.context = context;
    }

    public Foo (IntPtr handle, JniHandleOwnership transfer)
        : base (handle, transfer)
    {
    }

    Context context;

    [Export ("bar")]
    // to become consistent with Java/JS interop convention, the argument cannot be System.String.
    public void Bar (Java.Lang.String message)
    {
        Console.WriteLine ("Foo.Bar invoked!");
        Toast.MakeText (context, "This is a Toast from C#! " + message, ToastLength.Short).Show ();
    }
}
