Android ClickableSpan get text onClick()

try this:

public class LoremIpsumSpan extends ClickableSpan {    @Override    public void onClick(View widget) {        // TODO add check if widget instanceof TextView        TextView tv = (TextView) widget;        // TODO add check if tv.getText() instanceof Spanned        Spanned s = (Spanned) tv.getText();        int start = s.getSpanStart(this);        int end = s.getSpanEnd(this);        Log.d(TAG, "onClick [" + s.subSequence(start, end) + "]");    }}

A little simpler, could also pass a model reference if necessary.

public class SpecialClickableSpan extends ClickableSpan {    String text;    public SpecialClickableSpan(String text){         super();         this.text = text;    }    @Override    public void onClick(View widget) {         Log.d(TAG, "onClick [" + text + "]");    }}

Then call new SpecialClickableSpan("My Text")

Edited: previous code was wrong, this works

    // make "dolor" (characters 12 to 17) display a toast message when touched    ClickableSpan clickableSpan = new ClickableSpan() {        @Override        public void onClick(View view) {            TextView textView = (TextView) view;            CharSequence charSequence = textView.getText();            if (charSequence instanceof Spannable) {                Spannable spannableText = (Spannable)charSequence;                ClickableSpan[] spans = spannableText.getSpans(0, textView.length(), ClickableSpan.class);                for (ClickableSpan span : spans) {                    int start = spannableText.getSpanStart(span);                    int end = spannableText.getSpanEnd(span);                    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, charSequence.subSequence(start, end), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();                }            }        }    };
