EditText addTextChangedListener only for user input

Question

I have an EditText where I listen for changes in text:

editText.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
        @Override
        public void beforeTextCh         


        

Answer 1

In my opinion there are two possibilities:

1. Register / Unregister listener
2. Flag

Flag example:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity{
    boolean automaticChanged = false;
    ToggleButton toggleButton;
    EditText editText;
        @Override
        protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

            //...
            toggleButton.setOnClickListener(onClickListener);
            editText.addTextChangedListener(textWatcher);
            //...
        }

        TextWatcher textWatcher = new TextWatcher() {
            @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) {
                if (!automaticChanged) {
                    // do stuff
                } else {
                    automaticChanged = false;
                }
            }
        };

        View.OnClickListener onClickListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v)
            {
                automaticChanged = true;
                // do stuff
            }
        };
    }
}
