Android - setOnClickListener for TextView

Question

It should be straightforward, but I am not sure where something is wrong. I try to catch the click on the TextView with:

public void runNextTask(){
         


        

Answer 1

You can remove this:

android:onClick="onClick"

Or, remove this:

modelTextview.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
    @Override
     public void onClick(View v) {

     }
});

and have this:

public void onClick(View v)
{
    // do something
}  

android:onClick="onClick"/> // It would be better to rename the method to avoid confusion

Also, you have this:

<TextView
     android:id="@+id/model" // id is model

so initialize your TextView as below:

TextView modelTextview = (TextView)addView.findViewById(R.id.model);

Answer 2

This line: android:onClick="onClick" Tells Android to look in the activity for a method with this signature:

public void onClick(View v)

This wasn't your intention, as you've set the OnClickListener inside your code and haven't created the dedicated method for it in the activity. So your options are either to simply remove the android:onClick="onClick" from your xml file or remove the on click listener you've created and change it to an onClick method (and preferablly change it's name to something better than onClick...

Answer 3

If you change your code to have this structure it will work:

public void runNextTask(){
   ...
}

public void onClick(View v) {

}

as you're telling in your xml to capture the click for the text view (android:onClick="onClick") in onClick module, you don't need to add an onClick listener in your java code.

Answer 4

for every view component we can call setOnclickLister() like that for TextView also call

textview.setOnclickListener(new setOnclickListener
                           {
                                public void onclick()
                                                   {


                                                    }
                           }
                            );``

Answer 5

 super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
 setContentView(R.layout.other_activity);
 findViewById(R.id.TextView).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {

    }
});

Answer 6

Change :

 TextView modelTextview = (TextView)addView.findViewById(R.id.modelEdit);

to

 TextView modelTextview = (TextView)addView.findViewById(R.id.model);

and there is no need of android:onClick="onClick" in your xml code if you want do this with java code
