android edittext onchange listener

Question

I know a little bit about TextWatcher but that fires on every character you enter. I want a listener that fires whenever the user finishes editing. Is it possible? Also in TextWatcher I get an instance of Editable but I need an instance of EditText. How do I get that?

EDIT: the second question is more important. Please answer that.

Answer 1

It was bothering me that implementing a listener for all of my EditText fields required me to have ugly, verbose code so I wrote the below class. May be useful to anyone stumbling upon this.

public abstract class TextChangedListener<T> implements TextWatcher {
    private T target;

    public TextChangedListener(T target) {
        this.target = target;
    }

    @Override
    public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {}

    @Override
    public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {}

    @Override
    public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
        this.onTextChanged(target, s);
    }

    public abstract void onTextChanged(T target, Editable s);
}

Now implementing a listener is a little bit cleaner.

editText.addTextChangedListener(new TextChangedListener<EditText>(editText) {
            @Override
            public void onTextChanged(EditText target, Editable s) {
                //Do stuff
            }
        });

As for how often it fires, one could maybe implement a check to run their desired code in //Do stuff after a given a
