I am facing the issue of back key or del key which is not working in 4.4 and 5.0.1 devices ?
When I press the back key of softkeyboard below method is not calling.
Username.setOnKeyListener(controller);
Password.setOnKeyListener(controller);
@Override
public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if(event.getAction() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DEL){
getActivity().setDisableLoginButton();
}
return false;
}
Anyone suggest me what should I do ?
I am disabling the button if there's no input in username & password.
Please, suggest me also suggest me other solutions if you have.
As i found here
https://developer.android.com/training/keyboard-input/commands.html
It is not possible to get Soft Keyboard Key Events
So you should use TextWatcher
for edit text and get available char and deleted char.
yourTextView.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
@Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
}
@Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
if(yourTextView.getText().toString().length()<=0){
//disabled button here
//It means your edittext is empty...
}
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
});
Try this, this worked for me ..
public class InputConnectionProxyInput extends AppCompatEditText {
private static final String TAG = "InputConnectionProxyInput";
/**
* Callback to handle the delete key press event.
*/
public interface SoftKeyDeleteCallback {
void onDeleteKeyPressed(final EditText source);
}
private SoftKeyDeleteCallback mCallback;
public InputConnectionProxyInput(Context context) {
super(context);
}
public InputConnectionProxyInput(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public InputConnectionProxyInput(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
}
public void setSoftKeyDeleteCallback(SoftKeyDeleteCallback callback) {
mCallback = callback;
}
@Override
protected void onSelectionChanged(int selStart, int selEnd) {
/**
* Doing this to avoid user selection
*/
setSelection(this.length());
}
@Override
public InputConnection onCreateInputConnection(EditorInfo outAttrs) {
return new ProxyConnectionWrapper(super.onCreateInputConnection(outAttrs), true);
}
/**
* Creating a proxy class to handle the delete callback, in 4.3 and above we won't get the KeyEvent callback
*/
private class ProxyConnectionWrapper extends InputConnectionWrapper {
public ProxyConnectionWrapper(InputConnection target, boolean mutable) {
super(target, mutable);
}
@Override
public boolean sendKeyEvent(KeyEvent event) {
if ( event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN
&& event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DEL && mCallback != null)
mCallback.onDeleteKeyPressed(InputConnectionProxyInput.this);
LogUtils.LOGD(TAG, "key code " + event.getAction());
return super.sendKeyEvent(event);
}
}
}
