How do I set a EditText to the input of only hexad

问题:

I would put in this code a control on EditText so that it only accepts hexadecimal numbers. How do I go about doing this?

bin = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText02);
hex = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText3);
dec = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText1);
oct = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText04);

TextWatcher is also good option, however I prefer using custom filters. thereby, simpler way is to use InputFilter and take control of every char on the fly, see example below, hope this helps

    import android.text.InputFilter;
    import android.text.InputType;

    EditText input_moodMsg; 
    // initialize this edittext etc etc
    //....
    // here comes the filter to control input on that component
    InputFilter inputFilter_moodMsg = new InputFilter() {
                @Override
                public CharSequence filter(CharSequence source, int start, int end,Spanned dest, int dstart, int dend) {

                    if (source.length()>44) return "";// max 44chars

// Here you can add more controls, e.g. allow only hex chars etc

                    for (int i = start; i < end; i++) { 
                         if (!Character.isLetterOrDigit(source.charAt(i)) && !Character.isSpaceChar(source.charAt(i))
                                 && source.charAt(i)!='-'
                                 && source.charAt(i)!='.'
                                 && source.charAt(i)!='!'
                                 ) { 
                             return "";     
                         }     
                    }
                    return null;   
                }
            };
            input_moodMsg.setFilters(new InputFilter[] { inputFilter_moodMsg });
            input_moodMsg.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS);

In your android layout XML file add the following attributes to EditText:

<EditText
android:digits="0123456789ABCDEF"
android:inputType="textCapCharacters"
/>

The first attribute allows only input with these numerals. Any other input is rejected and not displayed. The second attribute capitalizes characters.

There are two options, one is described by Muhammad Annaqeeb using the properties:

<EditText
        android:id="@+id/myTextView"
        android:digits="0123456789ABCDEF"
        android:inputType="textCapCharacters"/>

other option would be using an InputFilter and REGEX to allow only hexadecimal characters:

EditText myTextField = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.myTextView);

InputFilter inputFilterText = new InputFilter() {

    @Override
    public CharSequence filter(CharSequence source, int start, int end, Spanned dest, int dstart, int dend) {

        Pattern patern = Pattern.compile("^\\p{XDigit}+$");

        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

        for (int i = start; i < end; i++) {

            if (!Character.isLetterOrDigit(source.charAt(i)) && !Character.isSpaceChar(source.charAt(i))                            ) {
                //is not(Letter or Digit or space);
                return "";
            }

            //Only allow characters "0123456789ABCDEF";
            Matcher matcher = patern.matcher(String.valueOf(source.charAt(i)));
            if (!matcher.matches()) {
                return "";
            }

            //Add character to Strinbuilder
            sb.append(source.charAt(i));

            /*counterForSpace++;
            if(counterForSpace>1){
                //Restar counter contador
                counterForSpace = 0;
                //Add space!
                sb.append(" ");
            }*/

        }
        //Return text in UpperCase.
        return  sb.toString().toUpperCase();
    }
};

myTextField.setFilters(new InputFilter[] { inputFilterText });
myTextField.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS);

both options have as a result:
